Lueking, who was able to make suggestions on how to improve my awareness of my shoulder position during exercises that were giving me trouble. I first reached out to Dr. Lueking after aggravating a previous shoulder injury during a CrossFit workout. As a former athlete, dealing with a recurring injury is frustrating, and time away from activity for recovery can be a challenge.

Julie and Brie come highly recommended in assisting anyone with any physical pain. Throughout our process I understood my body a bit better, corrected a few bad habits, and strengthened areas that were neglected. Julie also provided dry needling services which were fantastic and helped me to recover when I had a torn calf. All in all, I learned a lot and am happy to have found a great PT in the area.

My 95 year-old father fractured his L5 after a fall and came to Julie for therapy. Julie was very knowledgeable, honest, and able to explain in plain terms about his condition. My father recovered just around the time she predicted. Julie would spent time with him to find the right exercise and made them fun to do. Above all, she's sincere in trying to get her patients back to normal life. Best therapist we ever met!

I worked with Brianna and Julie for several months to strengthen my shoulder to prevent surgery for a SLAP tear. Brianna's energy and enthusiasm kept me motivated and believing that progress will be made. I enjoyed the variety of strength and mobility exercises which kept it interesting and targeted different areas of need. I trusted the process and can now say that I feel better than where I was before the injury!

After going to many different physical therapists, I finally found one that tended to my needs. I went to see Julie for 6 months to help with a sprained ankle along with other previous feet injuries. Julie's dedication, enthusiasm, and honesty helped me get where I wanted to be after my injury. She provided me with challenging work in and out of PT. We created a strong, trusting relationship that helped me stay focused and accountable. The only thing Julie lacks is being on time-- though, I truly believe it is because she spends extra time creating a connection with her patients to better help

Julie Lueking and Brianna Wynn at First Fit in Rockville, MD have been helping me with my stiff, painful hips and back issues for the past 6 months. Their in-depth knowledge, dedication, professionalism, and fun personalities helped to create strong, trusting relationships that keep me focused on my goals with documented significant progress. I feel so lucky to have found this team. I recommend them most highly. Furthermore, I plan to continue at First Fit with personal fitness training when my therapy is finished.

I was suffering from shoulder pain because of bad posture. I remember the pain used to be so bad that I couldn't move or breathe. Julie helped me a lot to get over this pain and get a good posture. On the first day I felt like 40% of my pain was gone. She and Caroline both of them were very friendly. Both of them gave me good excercises. Now I don't feel the pain very much but if I do feel it, I do the excercises they gave me and it goes away. Thank you so much Julie and Caroline.

I've had to live with migraines for a few years now. Though they are pretty common, they are still so difficult to live with--I would have to leave work or go sit in a dark room for hours. Before going to First Fit, I tried many options--the neurologist, medicine, supplements, diets, etc...nothing gave me any long-lasting relief, and I continued to get migraines. This all changed about a year ago when I first stared seeing Julie at First Fit. She approached my pain and migraines in a way no doctor had before--she tried to look for the source rather than just treating the pain. I began a dry needling

Julie is amazing at what she does! She is professional, kind and caring. I was terrified of physical therapy after my elbow injury. Julie made me feel so comfortable and worked with me and my anxiety. She takes her time and gives you one on one personal attention. My recovery wouldn't be this easy without her professional help and knowledge.

Most of my family has been to First Fit and we have all had great experiences. My husband saw Dr. Julie for a running issue and to correct muscle strain from childhood issues and my daughter saw her to realign her hip and strengthen her knee muscles after a series of growth spurts. She provided both with appropriate in-office treatments as well as exercises to do at home to maintain the results she helped them achieve.
I saw Kris for massage therapy after weeks of increasing pain in the middle of my back that had reached the point of keeping me up at night. She loosened muscles I didn't even know
