Patients learn self-stretching protocols to maintain improvements and prevent injury recurrence.

QuistMD is the best. As a former college and pro athlete, I endured my fair share of sport injuries. What would take other trainers months to heal, QuistMD was always able to swiftly identify the injury and rehabilitate it in half the time. Using them was like magic compared to other services. 5 starts!

QuistMD eased my migraines by relaxing my migraine-related muscles and teaching me to strengthen and use my core instead of my upper body when I bike and do other activities. They're saving me a hip replacement by properly diagnosing hip pain. They're keeping me from injury, so that I can enjoy all my favorite activities - biking, hiking, swimming, skiing, and more.

Dr. Haggquist has an amazing ability to diagnose the true cause of the muscular problem and then to treat the problem, not the symptom.

Best sports medicine in DC. Dr. Haggquist and the team are great at what they do. They have a deep commitment to understanding and treating the whole patient. I have never before experienced such an intensive, thoughtful, and thorough approach to diagnosis and treatment. Really excellent.
