Sport & Spine Rehab, Washington DC

Now located throughout the DC area with 8 locations in both urban and suburban neighborhoods, SSR is connected to a vast network of medical professionals and serves patients by working as part of their healthcare team. In 2008, SSR opened its first office within an orthopedic practice in order to serve pre- and post-surgical patients.

Dr. Greenstein has built SSR on the belief that proper conservative care must be research-based, and all thirteen doctors (as well as their clinical staff) excel at providing the most up to date services to their patients. This includes Graston™ technique, the latest rehab protocols, and digital x-ray. Dr. Greenstein’s extensive experience with athletes – including serving on the NFL Player’s Association Provider List, conducting research at the Ironman Triathlon, and acting as the Chef de Mission for the Chiropractic Sports Clinic at the World Olympians Association Reunion Center and as a treating doctor at the 2008 Olympic Games in Beijing – means that all patients receive care as thorough and cutting-edge as any elite athlete.

The clinical staff believes so strongly in this model that they are developing the next generation of doctors. “SSR offers students from the George Washington University Medical School, the University of Maryland Doctor of Physical Therapy program, and the Shenandoah University Doctor of Physical Therapy program a rotation through their clinics as part of their training program. Doctors also teach in the Physical Therapy department at Shenandoah University. Sport and Spine Rehab distinguishes itself by hiring only the best clinicians.

SSR clinical staff brings a wide variety of experience to the organization, from sports injuries to post surgical rehab. In addition, the staff includes faculty at George Washington University, TheraBand certified instructors, and Titleist Certified Golf Fitness Instructors. They constantly educate themselves to stay on the cutting edge of musculoskeletal healthcare, thereby bringing the most advanced techniques to their patients.” Sport and Spine Rehab is the only multilocation healthcare practice in the entire country that has been recognized by the National Committee on Quality Assurance for their Back Pain Recognition Program and is the Official Chiropractic and Physical Therapy Provider for the Washington Redskins Cheerleaders.

In addition to providing complete musculoskeletal care, in 2007 SSR extended its reach into another part of the wellness sector. In response to a need for patients to have the opportunity to work out under the supervision of clinical staff, Sport and Spine Athletics (SSA) opened in Fairfax, Virginia. This boutique fitness center meets the needs of post-rehab athletes, fitness novices, and everyone in between. SSA offers the services of exercise physiologists, personal trainers, yoga instructions, and other wellness professionals to ensure that clients have the ultimate one-on-one fitness experience.

SSR and SSA serve the community not only by providing excellent healthcare, but through involvement with many charitable organizations. Many of the employees have close ties to the area, and they are encouraged to participate in the many volunteer opportunities available. The doctors provide consultations and educational lectures at no cost to organizations that sponsor run/walk events, such as the Avon Walk for Breast Cancer, the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society’s Team in Training Organization, and the National Multiple Sclerosis Society. Further, the organization provides both financial and clinical care support to the Hoop Dreams Scholarship organization.

In addition to donating thousands of dollars of cash and services to such organizations, SSR and SSA hold special event fundraisers and provide staff at multiple charitable events each year. The company slogan “Work Better, Play Harder” is truly embodied by the organization’s commitment to making the DC area healthier and stronger, one person at a time.
