I've been receiving therapy for a knee replacement and automobile accident. I had of course, knee pain, among other injuries. They were patient and very compassionate. Took their time to explain every part of treatment. Excellent group of therapist and receptionist. I wouldn't go anywhere else. Excellent experience

Due to severe scoliosis, I have always had a lot of issues throughout my entire spine, from neck to pelvis. The Physical Therapists at First Settlement Physical Therapy on Wheeling Ave in Cambridge are the only ones who have ever been able to actually help. I've been to several PT's throughout the years, with no or little improvement. They always did your standard 6-8 weeks of therapy, then shove you out the door. NOT these guys!! I'm currently 3 days shy of hitting 9 months of PT. I'm standing up without bending over like I'm 100 years old again! I'm catching up on housework! I can breathe better! If you're willing to put in the work, these guys will stand beside you and help guide you to a better, less painful, you. It's not easy, but it's worth it, and these guys have the perfect balance of empathy and drive to help push you to get better without pushing you too hard.

Went to first settlement in Cambridge office following an auto accident for back pain . Had just had surgery on back 11 months prior. Melissa at the front desk is very personable and always had paperwork ready for me when I needed it . All of the different physical therapists I had were excellent . Rick's ability to be able to put my hip and leg into place was a major help and excellent care . I would highly recommend this office.

Rick and the rest of the staff were fantastic, very knowledgeable and engaged. Physical therapists I've been to in the past have just put me through my paces with no real interest in helping me make progress, plan for how to maintain my health, or even understand what we were doing. Rick restored my faith in physical therapy. He has a deep knowledge of how the body works, more like what you'd expect from an m.d., and did a great job communicating this to me. This helped me understand how to do the exercises properly, and motivated me to do them regularly, even after leaving therapy. He tracked my progress thoroughly, so when I had a session with a different therapist at FSPT, they were able to pick up where he left off. All in all, it was a great experience, and I'd recommend it to anyone. Thanks, Rick!

When I went in, I had a hard time standing straight up. They help work on the strength of my legs and back muscles. When I left there I was able to stand straight up and walk a short distance, due to my handicaps. You don't know what's it's like to stand upwards instead of bent over all the time. As long as I keep up with the exercises they taught me, I can only get stronger. I highly recommend First Settlement.

I truly appreciated the caring nature of the staff, from the receptionist to the two therapists who worked with me. They were very professional and kind, with the top priority of helping me get better. Their diligence made me feel valued as a person rather than just another patient. From the bottom of my heart, thank you to the entire staff!

FSPT is very thorough and has an extremely friendly atmosphere. They made sure I had an hour of PT each visit followed by 10 minutes of ice treatment. The atmosphere was calm and soothing each time I was there. I left each visit feeling much better than when I arrived. I would highly recommend FSPT.

Never having physical therapy before I was a bit scared and concerned. They allowed me to visit their facility beforehand and see what they do. When I actually started they were all so friendly and encouraging. They listened to my concerns and answered all my questions. I’m actually going to miss going to physical therapy when it’s finished. Big Thank You to everyone at the Cambridge office you are truly an amazing group of caring people I highly recommend you anyone who needs physical therapy!!

I did my research on the Physical Therapy options in the area. FSPT was far and above the best choice that I could have made. Mike and Emily were excellent. Every week they talked to me and kept apprised of where they thought my progress was. If I ever need to do physical therapy again, I would definitely go to FSPT again!

I have been coming to FSPT for almost 6 months and they have been awesome. My shoulder was frozen and the rotator cuff had shut down and they have helped me immensely. I basically have full range of motion now and just need to build up the strength in that arm again. I have been to other PT places for other problems and FSPT is right up there with them. The therapists are all very skilled and knowledgeable about what I need to do to get those muscles working again. They watch carefully to make sure that my technique is correct, and they are all very friendly, so even though it hurt to do the exercises they made it an enjoyable experience. I would highly recommend FSPT to anyone who needs PT.

FAQs About Physical Therapy in Cambridge, OH

What types of conditions do you treat at your Cambridge physical therapy clinic?

At our Cambridge clinic, we treat orthopedic injuries, chronic pain, sports-related issues, post-surgical needs, mobility limitations, and balance concerns. Your therapist creates a personalized plan focusing on strength, flexibility, and functional recovery. Our evidence-based approach ensures safe, effective progress tailored to your unique needs.

A typical session at our Cambridge location lasts 45 to 60 minutes. Your therapist guides you through targeted exercises, hands-on treatment, and progress assessments. This focused structure helps improve mobility, reduce pain, and support consistent recovery from start to finish.
