Time to get started…

  • A man riding a surfboard on a green wave at the beach, with others in the water and a pier or boardwalk in the background. Surf physical therapy.

    I saw Matt for my ACL rehab and for a back injury and I cannot recommend him enough

    Josh J

  • A woman with a long braid, wearing a white long-sleeve shirt, dark pants, a white cap, and a red backpack, holding a map and a hiking pole, standing on a dirt trail in a wooded area. Hiking physical therapy

    Professional, kind and knows his stuff.

    Maggie D

  • A man with tousled gray hair and a black T-shirt taking a mirror selfie in a bathroom, smiling. Health and longevity.

    Cleared up some neck and shoulder issues so I can sit all day in the office then chase after the kids and try to be active on the weekends.

    Chris B

  • A young man smiling, sitting indoors near a large glass window or door. Seal team physical therapy.

    Matt Dancigers of Nalu PT is top notch. He is my go to for all my physical therapy needs, whether it being preventative or rehabilitative. ... Matt is willing to help no matter what, and he has jumped through hoops to make sure I am taken care of.

    Roth C.

  • A smiling blonde woman and a smiling man with glasses sitting together at a table in a restaurant or cafe. Skateboarder physical therapy.

    Matt is awesome, knowledgeable, and skilled in every aspect of physical therapy that you can think of! Highly recommend!

    Matthew G.

  • Woman sitting outdoors on a white bench, using a tablet, with trees and parked cars in the background

    Dr. Matt is a wonderful physical therapist ... He was a huge help in getting rid of back/hip pain ... I feel more in touch with how my body moves after our sessions. He was also very flexible with my schedule and his availability. I'd highly recommend.

    Lauren M.

  • A woman with blonde hair wearing a brown dress sitting near a potted plant. Yoga physical therapy.

    Dr. Matt is an empowered individual with fantastic knowledge. He has a unique ability to communicate important information with clarity and ease. 🤝🏼

No Physician Referral Needed

I am trained to assess and address you, Directly. Virginia Law allows Direct Access for Physical Therapy Services, without the need for a referral from your Doctor. Easy. Let’s go!

I do not let this wonderful situation get to my head, however. Nalu PT will recommend a top local physician for your condition should we need further medical assessment.

This is a Simple Private Pay Practice.

We move with the end result in mind.

I will never ask about your insurance. Nalu Physical Therapy is a private pay service. Simple. Straightforward. (Cash, CC, HSA, Zelle, Venmo, etc)

Unfortunately, insurance rules and regulations are not laser focused on getting you better. They get in the way. I don’t have time to play games. I’m focused on you. When we’re together, it’s just us working on your condition.

I typically use less visits than a normal episode of rehab. I don’t care about “doing PT.” I care about getting you through it. Getting you optimized. Getting you out there. This simple mindset often creates a scenario where I can get you better quicker. (Of course, we are at the mercy of biology and healing, but you get the idea!)

“I told my physician: “I’ve got the best PT on the East Coast.””
— Patty J

From headaches and hamstring tears, low back pains and shoulder strains, nerve issues to stiff joints, muscle weakness to dizziness, sport performance readiness to maintenance. I treat most all conditions. If I don’t treat it at an expert level, I will refer you out.
