At ITR Physical Therapy, we combine therapeutic stretch therapy with hands-on manual care to help you move better, hurt less, and feel like yourself again. Our one-on-one, full-hour sessions are designed for adults who are done being rushed — and ready for real results. No shame. Just results.
Is This Why You Haven't Found Relief Yet?
So many people in McLean and Northern Virginia have tried multiple providers — and still feel dismissed, rushed, or stuck. You deserve care that actually listens and goes deeper than surface-level treatment.
You Feel Like a Number, Not a Patient
Back-to-back appointments, minimal face time with your therapist, and generic treatment plans leave you feeling invisible. You’re managing your symptoms — not solving them.
Your Pain Keeps Coming Back
You’ve tried stretching on your own, maybe even seen other providers — but the tension, tightness, or pelvic discomfort keeps returning because the root cause hasn’t been addressed.
You Don’t Know Where to Turn
Pelvic pain, incontinence, postpartum recovery, or persistent back pain can feel isolating and hard to talk about. You need a safe space where every question is welcome — without judgment.

What Our Patients in McLean Are Saying
5.0 stars across 53 Google reviews — and counting.
“ITR was the first healthcare setting where I felt totally seen, heard, and like I could ask any question and bring up any concern and be treated with care and compassion. Lauren is kind, easy to talk to, and an expert at what she does. I am forever grateful to her and Jen for getting me on the road to recovery.”
— Jennifer
“I hurt my back lifting weights and could barely move. After 1 visit with ITR, where I was treated by Terry, she taught me what exercises to do, and exactly how to do them. Within a week, I was able to do so much more and my pain decreased over time. I highly recommend ITR for anyone who wants a PT pro who listens to them.”
— Anne LeMaitre
“I’ve been coming here for post-surgery PT, and I always feel a noticeable improvement in my pain following my appointment. Experienced, competent, and most importantly, compassionate and kind — this all makes for a very safe and comforting atmosphere!”
— Valerie Amato

Frequently Asked Questions
Have questions about stretch therapy, pelvic floor PT, or getting started in McLean? We have answers.
Q: What is therapeutic stretch therapy, and how is it different from regular stretching?
Therapeutic stretch therapy at ITR goes far beyond what you’d do on your own before a workout. Our licensed physical therapists use targeted myofascial release, soft tissue mobilization, and assisted stretching techniques to release deep restrictions, improve mobility, and address the root causes of pain and tightness — not just the symptoms.
Q: Do I need a referral to start physical therapy at ITR?
In Virginia, you can begin physical therapy without a physician referral. Simply call or text us at (301) 770-7060, and our care coordinators will help you get started.
Q: What should I expect at my first visit?
Your first appointment is a full one-on-one evaluation — no rushing, no sharing your therapist with other patients. We’ll review your history, discuss your goals, and begin building your personalized care plan. Plan for approximately 60 minutes.
Q: Do you accept insurance, or are sessions out of pocket?
We encourage you to contact us directly at (301) 770-7060 to discuss payment and billing options. Our team is happy to walk you through what to expect before your first visit.
Q: Is pelvic floor physical therapy only for women?
Not at all. ITR provides expert pelvic floor care for all genders, including men and pediatric patients. Conditions like pelvic pain, bowel and bladder issues, and pelvic floor dysfunction affect people of all ages and identities — and everyone deserves compassionate, specialized care.
Q: Do you offer telehealth sessions?
Yes. We offer secure virtual PT visits through our patient portal for home program reviews, posture coaching, bladder and bowel education, and stress management check-ins. Ask your therapist if telehealth is a good fit for your plan of care.
