Athletes' Potential - Decatur, Georgia

Dr Warnimont here in Atlanta was excellent at diagnosing my upper back/neck and hip golfing related issues. Gave me multiple exercises to resolve the problems. Was on point with Dry Needle technique for muscle hot spot areas. Even provided his golf training expertise to improve my club head speed.
Quick and efficient at his craft.
Awesome Dr… highly recommend!

Did 10 sessions of PT (over 5 months) with Dr. Mike Jones at Athletes' Potential to treat neck pain and headaches that prevented me from doing any kind of strenuous exercise. Within a month I was back to exercising and cycling with little pain and reduced headaches. After 10 sessions I'm exercising regularly, have increased my strength and mobility, and have a brand new perspective on how to exercise properly.

It was the best PT experience I've had all around. I appreciated the initial phone screen to see if I'd be a good fit for their program which is ideal for athletes and people who are active. The facility was modern and the team was very friendly. The best part about working with Dr. Mike is how he took the time to ask about my workout routine and observe the exercises I do regularly such as push-ups. From there, he noted issues with my form and then tested my mobility and range of motion. He came up with a personalized program that we iterated on and modified over the 10 weeks. I thought the focus would be on my neck, but Mike explained how the traps, lats and pecs all worked together and all needed to be developed. Mike emailed me after every session and was always responsive to questions I had.

This was a transformative experience and will recommend them to anyone looking for a good PT.

After a recommendation from a friend, I have been working with Caleb at Athlete's Potential for the last 3 months (~10 visits) and have had a great experience seeing him at the Chamblee location (located inside of the Rack Fitness center which is an awesome gym/location to do PT).

Since working with Caleb I've made a ton of progress on a very difficult/tricky herniated disc that I initially came to see him about which had been severely limiting not just what I wanted to do athletically but what I needed to do on a daily basis. I'm still mindful of the injury but feel basically back to normal after a few months of following the programming that Caleb laid out for me (strength training/mobility drill "prescriptions") and am starting to think through what I want to take on next athletically. That's a massive improvement from where I was a few months ago. After seeing a few different doctors and a few different PTs this has been by far the most helpful thing that I have done. He has also helped with programming that has resolved some other more minor issues from years of lifting/running/golfing as well along the way.

During the first visit Caleb did a super thorough evaluation of what was going on with my back to get a feel for where my strength, mobility, and pain levels were at. Right off the bat he showed me a few new things to try that ended up significantly helping with mobility and pain. Subsequent visits started w/ an update on how things were going (ie. is there anything new/different flaring up) and focused on working on any issues while getting a strength training routine dialed in.

Overall there's a really cool and unique approach to PT here. You can tell that there is every bit of a super well versed medical background behind the programming, but this won't feel like an appointment. Working to identify troublesome individual planes of motion and dialing in new exercises/drills that I never would have found on my own feels like the PT experience that pro athletes get.

Dr Caleb truly helped me recover my shoulder. Unlike others, he provided a lasting solution, not just a temporary fix. His recommended exercises have kept my shoulder pain-free. I'm incredibly grateful for his expertise!

Amazing team and highly recommend. Mike Jones helped me through a hip injury and rehab from a severe illness all the way from struggling to walk without pain to two triathlons. Mike has a dynamic approach that is detailed and adaptive. You can tell he really knows his work and loves it. He was so engaged and locked into my recovery and he helped me meet and exceed all the recovery goals I hoped for. I can proudly say I am pain free and the labral tear in my hip gives me absolutely no annoyance while still maintaining an active lifestyle. Due to a host of injuries, I was wondering if I would have to give up the level of activity I had engaged in through my 20s swimming, surfing, running, playing soccer. But Mike and his team totally turned that around and now I'm excited to continue that lifestyle into my 30s. Best PT I've ever had. I rarely leave Google reviews but Mike and his team deserve all the praise and I hope others can have the same transformative journey.

I've always struggled with tendon issues when ramping up my running mileage in the past. While training for a marathon this year, the pain re-appeared and I made the decision to go see a PT for the first time. Dr. Charlotte helped me manage the pain and developed a tailored exercise program for me to address its underlying causes. Most importantly, she helped me adjust my training plan so that I could keep running in preparation for my race. She is a joy to work with and I would not have made it to the starting line without her!

I can't recommend Dr. Charlotte Barren enough. I started seeing Dr. Charlotte after sustaining a significant injury and having a subpar physical therapy experience elsewhere. From the first appointment, it was clear I was in good hands. She has a genuine passion for helping patients, and that interest/investment was evident in her holistic approach.

She immediately built rapport with me and had an easy way of communicating and listening. Her targeted questions and thorough understanding of my needs allowed her to tailor my recovery to meet my specific goals. The range of exercises she provided was both challenging and engaging. Her creativity in coming up with exercises, coupled with her deep knowledge, ensured that every session was productive, personally tailored, and adaptive. Not as familiar with the sport I played or its mechanics, she took the time to research and understand what was needed to return to play and developed a personalized approach.

Dr. Charlotte's encouragement and support were unwavering. She was patient with my barrage of questions and my eagerness to return to activity before I was ready. I didn't think that it would be possible to go back to my active lifestyle and playing sports when I first got hurt (certainly not at the same level), but thanks to Dr. Charlotte and her guidance, I was able to and am back playing and doing what I enjoy most.

I was suffering from a light rotator cuff strain, and it was really starting to affect my performance in the gym. After an initial test, Dr. Caleb and the folks at Athletes Potential were able to get me on a routine that was able to strengthen my muscles in the area and improve my form when utilizing that area. Sessions with Dr. Caleb were professional while being personalized and fun. Within a few months of doing the routines I was back in the gym without pain, without surgery, and most importantly, WITH better form. Couldn't recommend Athletes' Potential enough!
