First day, the dry needle technique unlocked years of hip immobility and pain."

He also performed dry needling, which made a huge difference in relieving my pain and easing the tension in my lower back.

He did a series of dry needling and gave me simple stretches/exercises to do between each week appointments! Honestly, a miracle!"

"Dr. Puckett did a thorough evaluation and gave me four targeted exercises to work on along with doing dry needling to the quad. After about a week of doing the exercises I was feeling much better. We followed up two weeks after the initial appointment, Dr. Puckett progressed my exercises and we did another round of needling. At the end of that week I was riding as hard and as long as I wanted to without pain."

"They had some really neat tools I haven't seen in any other PT clinic and Dr. Knapp put them to work (dry needling was the icing on the cake!) If you're a young athlete, older athlete, or just someone who actually wants to regain strength, mobility, and confidence with people who will make you work the right way for the right reasons, you definitely need to check out Puckett Physical Therapy."

In addition, he selects exercises thoughtfully and provides clear, effective instruction to ensure they are performed correctly. His precision, expertise, and commitment to patient care are evident in every session. I highly recommend Dr. Garcia and the team at Puckett PT for anyone seeking quality physical therapy and long-term relief."

"This review is long overdue. If you don't read anything else, know that your searching is over - Puckett PT is your best bet for a physical therapy and performance improvement in San Antonio! I've had the privilege of working with Dr. Knapp for a few months now. After tearing an ACL, my daughter was pretty discouraged. However, the team in place comes with alot of expertise, patience, and the positive attitudes needed to return to preinjury form. They go above and beyond - providing exercises, training plans, and moral support. They are good listeners, great PTs and dedicated professionals, and we feel supported every step of the way.

"Dr. Goodwin has been treating our young daughters knee injury and has been doing a great job at getting her healthy again. She was back on the field playing softball quicker than what we thought it would take. He is very patient with her and explains all of the different treatments he is performing and makes her laugh throughout the visits. Keep up the great work Dr. Goodwin and Puckett Physical Therapy!!!
