Job description

Are you a Physical Therapist looking to grow your career in a supportive, dynamic, and fun environment? Whether you’re an experienced clinician ready to take the next step or a newer PT eager to learn and build confidence, we offer a pathway for you.

We’re seeking a Physical Therapist who delivers exceptional patient care and enjoys contributing to a collaborative, growth-oriented team.

Join our Springfield clinic at Full Strength Physical Therapy (formerly Solutions Physical Therapy & Sports Medicine), where you’ll work with a motivated, active patient population and a team that genuinely loves what they do.

Why Choose Full Strength Physical Therapy?

Our core purpose is to empower every patient to perform at full strength: on the field, in the gym, and in everyday life. Full Strength Physical Therapy is a PT-owned, community-driven practice with locations in Alexandria, Arlington, and Springfield, VA. We’ve been recognized as #1 on Yelp and Google in Alexandria and as a 2023 Alexandria Chamber of Commerce Best in Business finalist.

At Full Strength, we believe in personalized care, professional growth, and teamwork – all while making a meaningful impact and enjoying the work we do together.

About Our Team

We take pride in having a tight-knit, energetic team that supports one another every day. You’ll join a clinic where collaboration and professional growth go hand-in-hand – a big reason clinicians choose (and stay with) Full Strength Physical Therapy.

Entry-level clinicians work closely with experienced PTs through structured mentorship and real-time coaching. Experienced clinicians have opportunities to mentor, lead, and shape programs that help newer PTs thrive.
