Customer Testimonial
“We cannot thank you enough!”
Dr. Matt and Dr. Rebecca helped my son recover fully after a soccer ACL injury, and he came back even stronger. They work as a tightly coordinated team, so there was true continuity to his care. The Alpha Project team is super friendly and incredibly flexible, which meant so much to me as a working mom. I could not recommend them more highly for physical therapy!

Customer Testimonial
“I’ve made so much progress in just 5 sessions”
I am 25 years old and have been dealing with the same chronic ankle injury since I was 19 from Division 1 sports. I have been in and out of physical therapy for the last 6 years and will feel better for a short time and then have the same or a new issue arise. It's exhausting and so defeating and has really damaged my relationship with movement. I have made so much progress mentally and physically in just the 5 sessions I have had with Matt so far, and those "lightbulb" moments are priceless for me. Worth every penny, I can't say enough about my experience here and I feel like I am on my way to getting this part of my life back.

Take The First Step
Experience the Alpha Project Phyzio Difference
The health industry can be complicated. You thought all performance physical therapists are created equal, but that isn’t true. People go to physical therapy all the time and see no long term results. People try alternative treatments with no change in how they are feeling.
We give you the best healthcare experience you’ve ever had that takes you FROM; frustration of being sidelined with an injury, to feeling stronger and more confident in your workouts and movements — getting you game-ready.
Ready to get started? It’s time to get back to your sport, and playing at your very best. Visit one of our three performance physical therapy locations in Columbia, Frederick and Gaithersburg.
