Dunn Loring patients have plenty of options for physical therapy. What they don't always have is a practice nearby that runs on a fundamentally different model – where the clinician who evaluates you is the one treating you, every session, for the full hour.
That's Manual Therapy Effects. Based in nearby McLean, the practice is a short drive from Dunn Loring and easily reachable off I-66 or the Beltway.
Jamie So, PT, DPT built the practice in 2003 to break away from the insurance-based, high-volume PT model. Nearly three decades in, she delivers top-tier manual therapy, individualized exercise programming, and the kind of clinical attention that lets patients get to the root of the problem instead of just managing the symptoms.
She works with active adults, endurance athletes, professionals with desk-job pain, and post-surgical patients who want a serious rehab partner rather than a punch-card provider.
