I have worked with Dr. Dominic for over a year to help me navigate the injuries that have come up throughout marathon and Ironman training. Thanks to his expertise and support, I have been able to go into each of my races feeling strong, confident, and healthy. He takes the time to truly listen, thoroughly assess what is going on, and create a plan that balances recovery with the demands of endurance training. I highly recommend Dr. Dominic to anyone looking for a physical therapist who understands the unique demands of athletic training and knows how to keep you moving toward your goals.

I came in with back pain that was keeping me from doing daily activities, lifting, and was even painful with running. Dr. Theo at Athletes' Potential really took the time to figure out the root cause of my pain and built a personalized plan to keep me active while solving the problem. After just a couple of weeks, I was able to live my day to day pain free, and get back to lifting and running pain free. Now I’m back to my full workout routine and am even training for a Hyrox competition.I went from being in so much pain and having the worst injury I have ever had, to being able to stay active during the injury with a quick turn around all thanks to Dr. Theo. If you’re looking for a clinic that actually helps you stay active without quick fixes, I highly recommend Athletes' Potential!

For several years I was dealing with numerous injuries and pain which limited my training. The team at Athletes' Potential really took the time to figure out the root cause of my pain and build a personalized plan to keep me active while solving the problem. Dr. Theo was great to work with during my time there. He was an excellent communicator, informative, and got back my training back on track. If you’re looking for a clinic that actually helps you stay active without quick fixes, I highly recommend Athletes' Potential.

Professional, knowledgeable, respectful, and caring.Theo helped me overcome pain from previous injuries in my hip, back and knee with needling and strength/stability training. The sessions provided are tailored to my specific needs/issues based on weekly/monthly progress. I appreciate that as I gained progress to alleviate pain in a specific area, we then focused on other areas may have been affected by the injuries.This training has helped me feel more comfortable with my leisure hiking, strength training classes, and everyday life.

I struggled with low back pain after an injury for over a year. My husband, a home health PT, hand selected a physical therapy practice for me because he didn’t want me going to a generic chain outpatient clinic. He made the perfect choice. I worked with Dr. Matt for about 5 months. He was always professional, listened to my concerns each session and he started at my level. I learned to stop being afraid of my back pain and became equipped with movements and workout routines that made me feel stronger and have more low pain or pain free days. Now, even after I’ve been done with sessions for a while, I’m able to keep my back in a good place, or get it it back to pain-free by keeping up with my routines. I highly recommend Dr. Matt to anyone struggling with back pain!

Last year I ended up with some pretty debilitating knee pain which took me out of sports, running, and weightlifting. I thought I did permanent damage and wasn't sure if I would ever be back to normal, but Dr. Matt was confident it was possible.He helped to not only give me exercises and help me with form, but gave me a framework to use at different stages of my recovery to keep safely increasing my activity and prevent future setbacks.I've been playing sports recently at full capacity and it has been great to not be limited by by knees again!

I had been dealing with a bum shoulder for several weeks following a cycling accident. My usual calisthenic/workout routine was not rectifying the issue, and was perhaps preventing progress. I had lost considerable power and reaction time in that arm entirely. I met with Dom who quickly helped me identify the issue, and he began constructing a routine with elastic bands and body-weight exercises to address the weak areas in my shoulder. He also recommended I ceased some of my activities/calisthenics until we could address the muscle balance in my shoulder. Dom was responsive to each piece of information I provided along the way (recalling past injuries, relaying how the shoulder felt as we went along, diet, etc), and he would readily modify/cater the weekly workouts to address those issues. I did my PT religiously throughout the weeks, sometimes at a greater frequency than recommended when the shoulder felt good. It took some patience on my part, committing to feeling awkward with new exercises, but practicing them until I could achieve smooth consistent reps. Within a month I could tell we were headed in the right direction as much of my pain had subsided and the shoulder was articulating more as it should be. At the end of month two I was really enjoying the workouts and making steady headway seemingly week to week. I would recommend Dom for athletic therapy, and will be keeping him in my rolodex to address any other issues I have in the future. Thanks Dom!Be patient, stay committed, do the workouts, and strive to get better. It can be a longer road then you might like, and may be uncomfortable at times, but thats why its so important to have educated guidance along the way so recovery is thorough and efficient.

I have worked construction for 27 years, skateboarded until I was 42 and have been rock climbing for 10 years. The physical abuse from all of these activities trashed my lower back and hips and I had become very stiff with chronic pain. I started working Dr. Theo Hu at Athletes Potential and I have had great results. Over the past several months I have regained flexibility and strength in my legs, hips and back and much of my chronic pain is gone. Dr. Hu has customized my therapy to both help with lifting material and climbing ladders at work and with rock climbing, which is something I do several times a week. Since I started physical therapy at Athletes Potential I have been able to utilize my lower body at the gym and have progressed my climbing at least a grade. At 51 years old it’s great to be able to keep progressing at one my favorite activities. I highly recommend Dr. Theo Hu and Athletes Potential!

I came in with lower back pain that had been troubling me for several years. I had tried other kinds of physical therapy and treatment, but could not seem to get to the root of the issue. The team at Athletes' Potential took a much more personal and whole-body approach rather than just giving me some back exercises to do each session. They built a personalized plan to keep me active while solving the problem. After a few weeks, I was able to move with less pain and gain mobility over time. Now I’m back to lifting heavier at Cross Fit than ever before. If you’re looking for a clinic that actually helps you stay active without quick fixes, I highly recommend Athletes' Potential.

After a couple years of thinking “oh it’s just a muscle issue in my back, I’ll stretch and mobilize” I finally took advice that was given to me and saw a PT. Matt came highly recommend to me by a former patient of his and I can say for a fact that he met all the hype. He took the time to do a proper assessment and narrow down to what was causing the main issue and any secondary issues. He took into account what physically activity I already do(weightlifting, endurance training, hiking) and my job(firefighter). He understood that I wanted to keep up my active lifestyle and built a plan around that instead of just saying I have to stop doing one or all of the things. More importantly, he understood the physical demands of my job and the need to get back to healthy without relying on surgery in the future that may take me from the job. He built a plan for me that was not rushed and when I was making marked improvements he did not just send me on my way like you would get from a PT that a hospital or surgeon would send you to. We adjusted the plan and kept making improvements. I haven’t felt this good in almost three years. He listens to what you have to say when it comes to how you’re feeling, any changes that may have happened since the last appointment, and any movements that I have been able to get back to with no issues or worry. I can’t recommend him enough and definitely worth the money and peace of mind.

I cannot say enough great things about Dr Theo and Athlete’s Potential!! After dealing with pain for years and not being able to run, jump, or even walk without pain, I’m now back to mobility and feeling better than ever. The staff cares about their patients and builds custom plans catered to you. They don’t rush your healing and truly take the time to understand the root cause, focused on getting back to movement. The regular check-ins through the Coach RX app is so helpful to stay in tune with my PT while in between sessions. Being able to move pain free has been the best feeling after a grade 3 Achilles tear!! Couldn’t recommend this place and Dr Theo enough!

I highly recommend the team at Athlete's Potential for any active individual who who has injured themselves. I have been active in various types of weight training, running, and sports since I was a teenager. In my mid-thirties I got a mild herniated disc, which I initially rehabilitated on my own, but over the past 12 years, there had been a few instances where I would reinjure it. The last time I injured it, which was a few months ago, I was referred by a friend to Dr. Theo Hu at Athlete's Potential. Dr. Hu listened to my history, evaluated all of my habitual movements, and exercise forms, and quickly diagnosed the root cause. He then developed a tailored exercise program to improve my running form, and strengthen the weak muscles, to enhance my capability and prevent any future injuries. I am much stronger now than I was before my initial injury over 12 years ago.

Dr. Theo came to Row House Upper Arlington to provide complementary evaluations. I chose to participate to work on fixing some pain points to help me achieve my goal of healthy aging. I want to be active well into old age. Since working with Dr. Theo on a weekly basis, I've noticed improvement. I feel as though his methods begin by building confidence and then he gently pushes to show you that you CAN do much more than you thought you could. It's not fun. I don't love it. It hurts. I like the way I feel when I've done the work. Without accountability, I definitely would not push myself the way I do by working with a professional. I highly recommend checking out Athlete's Potential Columbus to see if it's as good a fit for you!

Dr. Matt Longfellow and his team at Athletes' Potential did an incredible job with assisting me through a very tough time. I went to see Dr. Matt in March with a herniated disk and sciatica. The pain was unbearable and I could hardly walk. We proceeded with a three-month treatment plan. Dr. Matt was patient, caring, compassionate and very intelligent (state of the art exercises and movements). I can say today that I am 100% pain free and also stronger through the PT plan that he designed for me. Additionally, he was always available with a question via text messages, and he would send me a daily report via email. It was an incredible experience, and I highly recommend Dr. Matt and his team if you ever require PT assistance.

33M; I came in dealing with sciatica and had a fantastic experience with Dr. Matt. Trusted the process and now back on my feet not only pain free, but stronger. Really appreciated his approach and methodology; bedside manner above none. Professional, knowledgeable, and very easy to talk to. Definitely adding to my overall wellness team. Could not recommend enough.

Matt was the best to work with- super polite, professional, knowledgeable. I came in with bad neck and back pain, and after 2 months I'm basically pain free and back to my normal exercise and daily routines. I'm so appreciative of the help and care he gave me ❤️

Well, this review is long overdue, but here we go! I've experienced lower back pain for years. I was looking for a place which focused on keeping you active while going through physical therapy. I found Dr. Matt! He quickly identified the cause, developed a program specific to me, and provided guidance on how to work around my injury. Definitely no cookie cutter, generic programs here.I eventually joined the Clinical Strength Training program offered. I had a lot of fun working with Dr. Dom, Dr. Theo, and the morning class! I definitely feel stronger, have more confidence, and am more knowledgeable on working through flare ups. I can definitely say that I'm now pain free the majority of the time. I highly recommend investing in yourself and giving Athletes' Potential a shot!
