There just aren't words! I came to PT with a very bad attitude and a lot of pain. Rachel was patient and kind. She knew exactly how to handle my poor attitude and my wonky knee! I am SO GRATEFUL to Rachel and all the staff at GWP! Without a doubt, the BEST physical therapy option in our community! And Rachel is absolutely AMAZING!!!

Jason, Lauren and their team are simply the best! I have had a variety of injuries related to running, weight lighting and tennis over the years and they have miraculously fixed me every time! Their approach is to create a treatment plan that enables the athlete to continue doing what they love while also healing their body. I always walk out of GWP feeling rejuvenated and relieved to have such caring professionals dedicated to helping me feel great and improving my performance.

I was in a car accident about six months ago and wasn’t sure what to expect with physical therapy. Lauren and her team have gone above and beyond. They continue to support me as I heal. The entire process has been extraordinary, whether regaining independence, reduction in pain, or ease of scheduling appointments, all have contributed to my overall success. I am so thankful my Chiropractor suggested them.

GWP is an amazing Physical Therapy practice. Unlike most places, each session is 100% with your Therapist, not an intern or PTA. Dr. Rachel Peck is my PT and she has really helped me make a great deal of progress with treating carpal tunnel in a short period of time. She is extremely knowledgeable, explains home exercises to you in detail, and is fun to be around as well. Sessions are affordable too, and I'd rather pay out of pocket for this kind of experience than have my insurance pay for ineffective PT.

I highly recommend Gainesville Wellness and Performance!!!! I started going because I have been a longtime neck and upper back pain sufferer. I’ve always carried all of my stress and tension there. My PT Ryan has not only alleviated the constant neck strain and pain but has taught me stretches and exercises to help me strengthen my problem areas and more! Everyone is incredibly nice, knowledgeable and helpful!!! A definite 10 out of 10 for me!!!

I cannot recommend GWP and Ryan enough! My gym recommended their services after some perpetual knee pain. Ryan was so accommodating with his schedule and with his help and expertise, I immediately felt relief! Ryan is so kind and caring, easy to talk to, and follows up regularly with my gym to help keep me on track with my progress. I am so grateful for all of his help!
