Rose Physical Therapy's Friendship Heights/Bethesda clinic is at 5225 Wisconsin Avenue NW, Suite 202, directly across Wisconsin Avenue from the Friendship Heights Metro station. Conveniently located for clients in Bethesda, Chevy Chase, Tenleytown, and Takoma Park, our clinic brings state-of-the-art physical therapy to upper Northwest Washington, DC and Maryland, with a focus on sports and fitness.
Every Rose specialty is available in Friendship Heights, and our therapists rotate between all three clinics. This clinic, though, was built for the sports and fitness community around it. We offer golf swing analysis to find the mobility and strength limits behind back pain, golfer's elbow, and lost distance, and running analysis to treat and prevent injuries like runner's knee, shin splints, and Achilles pain.
We also work with many high school athletes, helping student athletes recover from ACL tears, ankle sprains, concussions, and shoulder and elbow injuries, and return to their sport stronger. Active adults come to us for tennis elbow, calf strains from pickleball and tennis, lifting injuries, and getting back to sport after surgery, including joint replacement. Pelvic health care is available here as well. Explore our full list of services and conditions to see everything we treat.
This is a community that plays. Weekends revolve around youth and high school sports, rounds of golf, tennis and pickleball matches, and long runs on the Capital Crescent Trail and through Rock Creek Park.

What to Expect at Our Friendship Heights Clinic
Whether you're coming from practice or the golf course, the cleats come off at our door. Past the reception area, Rose is a shoes-off clinic. We do a lot of exercise work on the floor, so we keep it clean, and our clients say it makes the clinic feel relaxed and welcoming, like coming home.
Every session is a full hour, one-on-one with a doctor of physical therapy, in a private treatment room. Our shared open area gives you room and equipment for sport-specific training as you build back to full speed.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do you offer golf swing analysis?
Yes. Our Friendship Heights clinic was built with golfers in mind. A golf swing analysis looks at how your hips, upper back, and shoulders move through the swing so we can treat pain and help you play better.
Do you work with high school athletes?
Yes. We see many student athletes for sports injuries, ACL rehab, concussion recovery, and return-to-sport training. Evening appointments until 8:00 PM Monday through Thursday make it easy to come after school or practice.
Do you offer running analysis in Friendship Heights?
Yes. Running assessments are available here for runners of every level, from high school cross-country athletes to marathoners.
Why do I take my shoes off?
We do a lot of exercises on the floor, so we keep it clean by going shoes-off past the reception area. Clients tell us it makes the clinic feel comfortable, like coming home.
