NoVaMotion Physical Therapy, LLC. Shira Weiss, PT, DPT, CCTT

"I can't say enough great things about NovaMotion and my experience working with Shira Weiss. When I first started seeing her, I had been dealing with TMJ and cervicogenic pain for almost 8 months, along with constant tightness in my traps and neck. The pain was affecting my daily routine and workouts, and honestly, I was starting to lose hope. I was referred to Shira by my TMJ specialist, and over the last two months she has completely changed things for me. Not only has my facial pain resolved, but she really took the time to address the underlying causes instead of just treating the symptoms. As someone who strength trains regularly, I was worried about how this would impact my ability to work out. Shira patiently helped me relearn proper mechanics and techniques, guiding me back into the gym safely and confidently. Her use of dry needling combined with corrective exercises and hands-on treatment made a huge difference in reducing my pain and tension. I truly feel like I have my life back. If you're dealing with TMJ, neck pain, or chronic tension, I highly recommend Shira and NovaMotion Physical Therapy. I'm incredibly grateful for her expertise and care."

"Shira and her team are the best in Burke! The folks at NoVaMotion are extremely knowledgeable and caring. I have never met another physical therapist that is so dedicated to education and patient care. She has an unmatched ability to meet her patients where they are at and provide the highest quality of care to help reach their goals! If you're experiencing TMJ issues or pelvic pain in Virginia, this is your place!"

"Shira and Jane are fantastic and really helped me with the TMJ pain and trouble I was experiencing post reconstructive mandible surgery. They are so knowledgeable about many therapy issues. The office is comfortable and nicely managed and Monica is super helpful with managing appointments and taking care of everything. I would highly recommend them for therapy. I definitely appreciate this team."

"I rarely leave reviews but because this is the only place where I truly felt my health concerns were validated and addressed in the most appropriate way, I felt obliged to leave one. After years of struggling with mysterious symptoms and seeing numerous doctors, I still wasn't getting the answers I was looking for. It turns out I was dealing an underlying muscle dysfunction/ dyssenergia and the treatment plan my functional doctor recommended was physical therapy/biofeedback. The place I was going to initially for therapy wasn't targeting my specific issue so I decided to keep looking and I'm so grateful that I found NoVaMotion!! From the very first appointment, Ms. Jane has been a pleasure to work with! After examining my abdomen during our first appointment using an ultrasound and without an ultrasound she was able to tell me right away what she found or didn't feel right. She is very knowledgable in what she does and I love how she gives her full and undivided attention during each appointment. Appointments never feels rushed. I love how she instills confidence in her clients and gives us all the tools we need to be able to help ourselves at home. The work they do here is truly spectacular! I highly reccomend this place!"

"I saw Shira for several months following arthroscopic TMJ surgery. The progression I experienced was gradual at first but I could undoubtedly feel the difference. I left each session feeling better than before. I'm now pain-free and have full range of motion in my jaw. I'm grateful to Shira and her knowledge, skills, and abilities that got me here!"

"Dr Shira is wonderful. It has been a life changing experience working with her and learning from her expertise. Would highly recommend her practice to anyone suffering with jaw issues and/or tmj and looking to ease their pain and manage their symptoms effectively."

"I first saw Shira in March 2025. She was patient with me and together we formulated a plan to get my jaw back to a normal range. She was very kind, and when I did have anxiety about my experience she helped me through it. Every session we updated exercises as necessary to make sure I was getting what I needed to achieve my goals. 6 sessions later I officially don't need surgery for my TMJ. Thank you so much and I will miss seeing you !!"

"My husband and I both see Shira, and we've been very impressed with her skills, knowledge and resourcefulness. For Shira, physical therapy is really a calling, not a job. We had very complex cases with chronic pain, and we have both seen significant improvements. Shira really stands apart from others in her field for orofacial pain. She has very creative exercises, and she observes to ensure that you have mastered the form before you leave. She makes her own videos of the exercises to send you after the visit, which are easily accessible on an app. She has helped us to find other reputable clinicians to address our issues from different angles. She is well-connected to others in the field because she frequently attends conferences and trainings to stay abreast of the latest techniques in her field. She is very skilled with myofacial release, dry needling, and muscle mobilization. If you are at your wits end, and in dire need of relief from chronic neck, shoulder, jaw pain and headaches, I would highly recommend you consult Shira. Our situation is not perfect, but we are seeing progress, and we have a lot more tools in our toolbox to address the pain we experience. There are packages to reduce the cost of your visit. Depending on the number of visits you purchase, you can expect your appointment to range from $199-215. She is out of network, but BCBS Standard reimbursement ranges from $88-98 per visit. We were already wasting so much money on pain management -- imagine that you stop vacations, going out to nice dinners, etc. because all of your disposable income goes to making your life bearable. When you get to that point, the price is well worth it because you will see results. Hopefully, you can see her before it gets to that point. She's giving you her full attention, her full time block with no distractions, and she's staying up-to-date on the latest developments in her field. From someone who is suffering to the others suffering out there--yes, you can trust Shira."
