Brandon Cote
"I had an excellent experience at Athletes Potential. Unlike other physical therapy clinics that just focus on basic recovery for day to day activities, their approach is for athletes and getting you back to full sport capacity. Their treatments are more workout focused, challenging, and tailored to the specific sports you do. With their help, I've fully recovered from climbing injuries and am running pain free."

What Columbus Clients Are Saying
<>Trista Mead
"I was diagnosed with hip impingement and there was a 6 week wait to see a PT within my insurance network. I didn't want to wait, I had goals to meet. Dr. Matt at AP was able to see me right away, explain my issue in greater depth than my sports med doctor, and helped me keep moving to reach my goals. I would highly recommend Athletes Potential for your physical therapy or pain relief needs."
Michael Traven
"As a swimmer and participant in several marathons, I became hooked on training and participating in triathlons. Then, I injured my low back and required surgery. I was referred to Matt from my sports medicine doc and began working with him last fall. In short, it has been a life-changing experience. Matt's focus began on mobility and flexibility. Once progress occurred in those areas, strength and endurance has been the focus. I'm back to cycling and swimming and have begun running."
Maggan S
"I visited to relieve my lower back pain while playing sports. Before coming, I tried several different stretches and exercises but nothing helped long term. After dealing with the pain for months trying to solve the issue on my own, I decided to visit. I've been feeling great ever since. I've enjoyed the new exercises and the progress I've made since my first visit. To anyone who is skeptical of physical therapists, I would tell them that Dr. Matt definitely knows his stuff."
