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!

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 Id 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!!!

Pelvic Floor PT is a life saver! I thought that my physical limitations, sleep deprivation for not being able to get comfortable, chronic pains, and depression from dealing with severe endometriosis was going to be my life until I met Dr. Mandy Roscow. After being referred to her, I didnt think that there would be much that she would be able to do for me because I had so much going on but her brilliant mind and superb skills proved me wrong! She was able to work out adhesions from the endometriosis and break down scar tissue from my surgery. Dr. Roscow also corrected a knee locking problem that was secondary to my pelvic floor issues . She makes therapy comfortable where it feels like youre talking to a big sister about your pelvic floor problems. Defiantly a safe space. Now Im finally back in the gym working out like I use to and feeling amazing! Im teary eyed writing this because I never thought Id have my life back like I do! Shes my hero and I will be forever grateful! I highly recommend Dr. Roscow!

After converting my garage into a home gym in 2019 and consistently working out during COVID, I developed an elbow injury that was affecting my performance and ability to continue to work out effectively. I was referred to Gainesville Wellness and Performance from a prior client of theirs and I saw Lauren and Mackenzie who got me started out on a physical therapy plan and within a couple weeks I was already back to working out and lifting like normal. They are amazing to work with and made everything super easy to get my elbow back to normal. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you GWP!

I highly recommend GWP! My appointments help me manage and overcome my workaholic lifestyle induced body aches (so much desk sitting 😭) with exercises and things I can do to prevent future pain. I find the staff and especially my physical therapist Lauren to be incredibly understanding and makes incorporating the exercises into my life super simple, as well as being able to provide immediate relief after some sessions—most recently for my jaw which had been locking up due to stress, I was sooo relieved I almost cried. So I really can’t recommend them enough. PLUS the facility is immaculately kept.

I have used Dr. Atkins for a torn ligament in my elbow and a left knee pain. Her treatment helped significantly for both. I have been so impressed with her skill and communication that I refer my chiropractic patients to her on a regular basis. If you are searching for a PT ... Youve found one!!!

It was great that I had the opportunity to have a session with Mackenzie using the Softwave Therapy. She is very bright, considerate and very helpful. Softwave is super effective and it is great to see that GWP offers it.

McKenzie Powell and the staff here are very knowledgeable! I had a nasty case of gout and received the softwave therapy on it and it helped reduce the pain and helped me walk easier! Thanks McKenzie and GWP!

I tore my ACL playing soccer in February and was convinced that I would be permanently hobbled without surgery. Dr. Lauren Atkins is simply the best Physical Therapist around. She is current with the literature and helped me understand that I could regain strength, balance, and function through PT. A few months later, I have almost forgotten the severity of my injury and now train with MacKenzie and Jason at GWP to get back in shape. So thankful and eternally grateful to this crew!

I have LOVED working Dr. Lauren Atkins for physical therapy for these past several months. She is hands down the BEST PT Ive ever worked with. She is incredibly knowledgeable and effective in helping me reduce pain and increase mobility. Ive been amazed at how well she tailors my exercises to improve the specific physical activities I am involved in. In addition, I appreciate how Dr. Atkins either gives me or allows me to borrow the props I need to to practice my exercises at home. This has been so helpful. I cannot highly recommend Dr. Atkins enough!!

Not only is Lauren an amazing Physical Therapist, it actually costs me LESS to pay her out of pocket than to go through my insurance. Yes, LESS! Around $40/session less. She has helped me through an ailment, followed up with me, given me great advice. She truly is interested in helping people get better, faster. I cant say enough great things about her, her work, her compassion, and her pricing. Incredible.

I have been training under Jason Atkins for almost two years now and he is hands down the best trainer/coach I have ever had. His knowledge of the human body is surpassed only by his passion for helping people discover and reach their health goals. He is compassionate and professional whether he is working with clients who are rehabbing acute or chronic injuries or training competitive athletes.In short, he is the best !!!

I started seeing Lauren for Physical Therapy after years dealing with debilitating shin splints from running. I had assumed they would never get better. After a few months its a complete change! Shin splints are almost completely gone and other lower back pain I didnt even plan to treat is almost gone as well. I cannot rave enough about what she does!

I was referred to Dr. Lauren Atkins @ Gainesville Wellness & Performance to rehab an Ischial Tuberosity Bursitis. My initial phone call from Lauren was very productive, she asked me about my injury and my lifestyle. She was genuinely interested in my current and previous levels of activities so she was able to pair me with the best PTA. My first office visit I met with Lauren and MacKenzie to go over my current status and put together a plan to get my injury healed as well as get me back to my normal activities. My injury was mid November 2018. I am pretty athletic, running 15-20 miles per week, biking and crossfit. Since I waited so long to get help the plan was 6-8 weeks rehab once a week. That brings me to my PTA MacKenzie Powell. She jumped right in to get me started on my recovery path. We met once a week, we did basic movement, stretching, and tissue work. After each visit she emailed me a recap of what we discussed as well as pdfs of each movement I was to work on for the next week. As I progressed the exercises got a little more challenging. A quote from one of my harder sessions Hey, I have to tell you I am so stinking sore from those dang one legged deadlifts - ouch. I havent felt this kind of sore for a really long time. It reminds me of my first Crossfit workout.I continued to work on the exercises she assigned me each week, as I got stronger they got harder #challenges. About 5 weeks into rehab I started back to the gym. And now at the end of 9 weeks I am elated to be able to RUN again. Running is my passion, my go to full body workout.MacKenzie was always responsive to my questions, and changes at each visit. She is very personable, I am beyond happy that Lauren matched us up - she was perfect for me. It was also helpful that she has a close family member that is also a runner, she understood my desire to recover as quickly and safely as possible.I am so thankful for these 2 ladies, I would recommend them to everyone.

Very knowledgeable group of trainers that design their workouts to meet your specific goals. Challenging workouts but in a safe environment because of their knowledge and individual attention that they provide.

After playing sports for most of my life its been life changing working with the team at Gainesville Wellness and Performance. They dont just treat symptoms, they look at the body as a whole and work with you individually to get you body operating at 100%. Today at 33 I feel better than I did at 23.

Im a competitive athlete who had a reoccurring back injury that would not go away. I would rest, and it would get better, but as soon as I started climbing up to high percentages again, the pain would always return.Gainesville Wellness and Performance, through their expertise and experience working with serious athletes, literally cured my back, and helped me understand what was going wrong in the first place.GWP gave me the knowledge I needed about my body to be proactive in my maintenance as an athlete. The worst thing that any athlete could ever feel is injured with no answer to why. GWP gave me that answer and helped me continue doing what I love, pain free.I highly recommend Gainesville Wellness and Performance for athletes, as well as for the average person looking to be healthy and live a strong life.
