Missing Link Physical Therapy

"All I have to say is that Andre is a master of his craft. The first time I walked (hobbled?) into the office, he was able to within minutes identify the root cause of my stiff joints and sore muscles. I have since been back several times, and he has increased my mobility tremendously and relieve lower back pain that I had been suffering from for years."

"I've known Andre for several years through our daughters' soccer program. I'm a 46-year-old business professional, husband, and father of two active children. I'm also a lifelong runner and fitness enthusiast and had been recently diagnosed with plantar fasciitis by a local orthopedist. At the time (Fall 2023), I was training for my first 50-mile ultramarathon and my heel had been giving me some trouble. A couple weeks before race day I asked Andre to take a look. I was immediately set at ease by his wonderful facility in Ashburn, VA and his inviting and warm candor and personality. He spent over an hour with me, was extremely thorough, and did numerous evaluations on various points in my body... all things that the orthopedist DIDN'T DO. During our session, I also mentioned that my mid-calf muscles and Achilles tendons were tight, particularly on my left side. This had been an issue for years, and those areas usually tightened up as the mileage and training increased for various races. I tried stretching, foam rolling, massage, and various other remedies, all with marginal success. Andre then asked me if I'd ever tried dry needling. I said no, and he proceeded to treat those areas. To make a long story short... that simple procedure had a massive impact on my heel and lower leg mobility and stiffness. I can say that my heel and lower leg flexibility improved over 30% and it was extremely noticeable while running. I now have more flexibility, strength, and quickness in my lower legs. In the end, I was able to breeze through the 50-mile race. I don't know if I could've gotten there without Andre. I'm grateful for him and the wonderful work he does! Danny"

"I took my 15 year old son to see Andre. Andre is an expert in his field, he found the source of his issues(foot, hip, back pain) and after treatment my son is feeling the best he has in a long time. He is now enjoying pain free hockey and workouts! Highly recommend!"

"Andre Heletsi is an amazing doctor and skilled physical therapist! He listens so well, and knows so many different therapies to address a variety of issues. He is so knowledgeable about root causes. Our whole family has seen him off and on for 10 years, and we all highly recommend him!!!"

"I don’t impress easily, but I'm impressed. I liked Andre on the phone, and he personified that same confident and attentiveness in person. The space is clean, set up well, and has 2 treatment rooms. I went in for lower left back pain, but discovered a tight neck was the base cause of my left side issues, and a stiff right shoulder blade affected my right side. Both were greatly improved. Treatment included physical manipulation, dry needling and cupping. I'm happy with today's progress, and am confident I'll be back to normal soon."
