THIS PLACE WILL CHANGE YOUR LIFE! As a Former D1 college football player with 3 herniated disks I just sucked it up and dealt with the pain for over 8 years. From multiple visits to chiropractors and sports medicine to pain clinics and spinal injections I was ready to go under the knife until someone recommended "Back in the Game." I was skeptical considering during my ball playing days I had unlimited access to some of the highest paid trainers, physical therapists and sports med Docs in the business that were little more than a Band-aid. From the moment I walked in the door I knew I was in the right place. Brenden did a quick evaluation and determined in short order through just a few guided movements which exact disks were herniated. He they went right into a descriptive and easy to understand plan of how I would make a full recovery in under a month. Not only did he deliver, I know consider everyone single one of his employees as part of my family. It has now been 18 months and I am still 110% pain free. This is not a place that will see you once and send you home with a bunch of exercises say "see you in a month!" They will put hands on you every single visit guiding you through there state-of-the-art methods and concepts. And FYI, now in the state of GA , if you have insurance you can go see PT for 5 visits before you need a referral. He fixed my wifes chronic back pain in 4 visits.

I suffered a serious ankle injury and was referred to Back In the Game Physical Therapy for treatment. I had no idea what to expect. From the moment that I walked in the door, I was impressed. This is an amazing team of professionals who are passionate about helping people. Their focus is not just on your injury, but on being truly committed to improving your overall health and well-being. I have been so fortunate to work with Andrew; he has always treated me with empathy and understanding, while challenging and encouraging me on my path to recovery. Andrew is certified in a range of techniques from more traditional methods of massage, stretching, and strength exercises, to more innovative methods of electrical stimulation and dry needling. He carefully evaluated my injury, listened closely to my short and long term fitness goals, and developed a personalized plan of care that has eased my pain and has put me in control of my recovery. Each session begins with him assessing my progress, answering my questions and concerns, and discussing the benefits I can expect to receive from the therapy methods we will be using. My treatment plan is constantly evolving to ensure that I see measurable results after each session. I am thrilled with the progress that I have made and I trust that I will be back in my running shoes very soon!

Im so thankful that I was able to go to Back In the Game! I hurt my lower back in October. It took a month before I was referred to BIG and Brendon Blake. During that time I could hardly sit, had pain/tightness all the time, and my back was so tired I couldnt even be minimally active for longer than a few hours before I had to lay down! Brendon, Gina, and all the staff were so knowledgeable, friendly, and helpful. They explained what was going on with my back and the plan to strengthen me. After just a few visits I had so much more strength and stamina. Six weeks later, I left there stronger than before my injury and with a greater awareness of my body and how to take care of myself! Every visit was instrumental in my recovery. They dont just show you a few exercises to do and leave you to yourself. The team is right there helping you work and working on you to give you the best opportunity for a full recovery. It is the place you dont ever want to have to go, but you hate to leave because the staff/atmosphere is so great! The doctor who referred me to Brendon said he was the best in the physical therapy business (especially with back injuries) and he was right! Thanks Brendon and BIG Team!

I was referred to Back In The Game by my parents, and subsequently we all attended together, and I am so glad! I was in a car accident and was in need of therapy to properly recover, and recover I have! The very talented team was absolutely wonderful! They are very prompt, kind, knowledgeable about their craft, and willing to work with your situation. Everyone has a genuine interest in their clients and that makes the care that much more effective. Some of the therapy was tough, but pain in the present for better health in the future is alright by me! The atmosphere is light, fun(great brain teasers to break the ice), and welcoming, the gentle nature of the staff lessens the stress of needing therapy so the experience can be healing and get you back in the game as quickly and safely as possible. While I pray I dont ever need any more therapy, I know exactly where to go if I do! Thank you to all the wonderful staff at Back In The Game Physical Therapy!

I broke my ankle 3 months ago in a high school playoff soccer game my senior year. I was mad and discouraged, but its hard to stay that way when youre placed in the kind of environment that Back In The Game PT has. I worked primarily with Andrew at the Dacula location. On my first visit, I came on crutches and in a boot and by the second visit, I was walking out of the building by myself. He taught me how to walk again, how to move my ankle and regain my balance. After about 2 and 1/2 months of physical therapy 3 times a week, I was doing sprints out back and rapid change of direction and going to the Flowery Branch BIG PT location to run on the Alter G (which I highly recommend). Now, hopefully, I will be able to play for Piedmont College come September. I can not express my gratitude towards these people enough and highly recommend them for anything physical therapy you ever need.

I started going to Back in the Game Physical Therapy in Flowery Branch two weeks ago after bilateral knee replacement surgery. I was not even walking well with a walker and I am already driving with no problems, walking around without a walker or a cane (although only at home) and having much less pain! As of Monday, I am going to a cane exclusively and only using the walker for my in home exercises! It is unbelievable! There is no better place or even anything equal to this facility hands down. They are caring and compassionate while making sure you are doing what has to be done to get better. 2 weeks, both knees, full replacement!!! WOW! I am in awe of Brendon Blake and his team. They also have a location in Dacula by the way. But bottom line, no matter where you live, if you want STELLAR physical therapy you should go to them!

I hurt my ankle playing with the grandkids and when I went to the Orthopedic to have it checked out X-rays showed my back also had some issues. Ive never had PT so I really didnt know what to expect. The minute I walked in the door at the Dacula location of Back in the Game, I was impressed. From the front desk on, such a group of friendly people that TRULY cared about me and wanted me feeling better. Andrew is amazing. Its like he has a 7th sense of knowing exactly what is hurting and how to pull the information out of his patients. Im a people watcher and of course watched him interact with everyone in the room. His genuine concern and ability to help really impressed me. He taught me how to do exercises at home that keep my ankle and back strong so that Im able to chase those grandkids around again.
