Stronger Physical Therapy + Performance

I have had a lot of mobility and back issues due to my health. Working with Gavin has helped improve my mobility and back strength. I love the way he approaches each session we have. I leave feeling confident and hopeful that things will continue to improve. Recommend 10/10.

One of the best physical therapist I’ve worked with. Welcoming, takes time to explain things appropriately, and helps targets areas with multiple strategies. Highly, recommend.

Gavin was recommended to me by quite a few people at Activ8 Fitness. They raved about how much he was helping them using techniques like dry needling and cupping. Those things sounded a bit far-fetched, so it took me a long time to finally make an appointment. I wish I hadn’t been so reluctant. In that first session he took the time to explain the science behind cupping and dry needling and that those are only a few of the treatments he offers. He did some massage and dry needling and prescribed specific exercises to help support the area while it healed. He didn't just print out pictures of the exercises, he worked with me to make sure I understood exactly how to do them so that I would get the most benefit. When I left, I already felt better and after a week of following his plan I saw huge improvements. Now my husband and I see him regularly. We no longer feel that we need to see a doctor just so they can send us for expensive tests then prescribe rest and meds. We've learned through Gavin that these smaller injuries can be treated another way that keeps us active and strong. We truly feel that he's playing a key role in keeping us mobile into our retirement.

On day on a chance of looking for someone else, I had found myself at Gavin’s place of work. I had a feeling inside that he would be able to get me back into shape after some serious neurological and heart related issues. Gavin’s programs have started to build my strength and endurance back up after having a stroke and various other health conditions. My balance has started to improve and my cardiovascular endurance has started to increase. Being a former triathlete, some of the complicated medical trials I have had to endure have been very discouraging at times. Gavin was not afraid to address or tackle these complex issues with me. His pin point accuracy of what I have needed at this time in my life could not have come at a better time. Gavin brings a sense of humor, excitement and a wealth of knowledge to his practice. Give Gavin a try. He will customize what your needs are based on your strengths and weakness. He will turn those weaknesses into strengths by challenging you to be the best version of yourself.

I can't say enough positive things about Dr Gavin Schneider at Stronger Physical Therapy & Performance. He is extremely helpful and knowledgeable. He focuses on building strength, flexibility and injury prevention. He truly cares about his clients and having them get back to a active lifestyle. If you're looking for a great physical therapist - he's your guy!

All my athletic life I have had constant back pain when it comes to lifting. Over the past couple of years I have been doing group lifting classes with Activ8 and despite my trainers improving my lifting form, my back still gets aggravated after a tough class. Since Gavin became a part of the gym he has helped ease so much of my back pain using his dry needling and cupping techniques as well as rehabilitation exercises. He understands the rigorous workouts I do every week because he does the workouts as well, and therefore he can relate to how and why my body is reacting the way it does afterwards. Gavin’s knowledge on how your nerves and muscles interact make his treatments that much more effective. I highly recommend consulting with Stronger Performance for all your recovery needs!

Gavin is highly knowledgeable at both physical therapy and sports training. My whole family sees him for recovery therapy and athletic training. He is always reading new materials to keep up with his field, creating valuable content for his clients to reference online, and building challenging new training programs to keep his clients strong. If you’re looking for a personal trainer and a physical therapist you get the best of both worlds with Gavin.

I honestly can't say enough about how much Gavin has helped me. I've dealt with a shoulder "injury" for years and was not able to stick with any workout routine for long without hurting myself again. I've been working out with Gavin for almost 5 months and have been able to get back to working out safely, even lifting almost 3x more weight (with my shoulders)than I used to! He's been a lifesaver and is so knowledgeable in all things fitness and physical therapy.

Gavin at Stronger Physical Therapy is top notch. Sure, you can find Physical Therapy centers on almost every corner, but you’re also going to get a cookie-cutter approach to your rehab. At SPT, Gavin takes doesn’t look at a diagnosis on a piece of paper and treat every injury, pain the same. He takes time to listen to exactly what is bothering you, and uses his in-depth knowledge of anatomy and how it works to formulate a plan of treatment. I’ve seen Gavin for a knee and shoulder surgery/injury, and he’s far superior to any other PT I’ve seen. He has a passion for helping active people and athletes regain strength and motion. If you’re looking to get your time and money’s worth from PT and rehab and get back to feeling good…I’d highly recommend Gavin at Stronger Physical Therapy!

I can’t recommend Gavin enough! His knowledge and passion to help others heal and maintain long-term results is refreshing and appreciated. I struggled finding someone to listen and really help me with my shoulder injury. Fortunately, after one session and a week of working with Gavin, I felt like someone actually cared and wanted to help me. On top of that, my shoulder finally started to heal! He is always willing to answer questions and help me modify workouts. Better yet, I’m able to heal my shoulder injury without putting my entire gym life on hold. Which is not common in the physical therapy world. Again, I can’t recommend Gavin and Stronger Physical Therapy & Performance enough. You will not regret it!
