Testimonials

I couldn’t have run my first half marathon without the support of Go Run Stronger and Coach Alex. Prior to training with GRS, I kept getting injuries that interfered with my running goals. Alex created a plan that worked with my lifestyle and took my injury history into account, and as a result I was able to train injury free and crush my race day goal!

I started running over COVID and simply became addicted. I pushed my body to the limits to reach my goals but it came with a heavy price. I constantly had nagging injuries which ultimately culminated with serious knee pain.

I tried everything to get back on the road but nothing worked. I gave up hope and put away the running shoes for good.

I came across Gaby’s IG and decided to get back to running the right way. Gaby’s experience and knowledge showed from the get go and I put my faith in her.

I have been combo running and lifting for the months pain free since being coached by Gaby. I would highly recommend her coaching to anyone!

I started working with Gaby to come back after a major injury. I wanted to return to racing in a smart way and not end up injured again so I really was happy to work with Gaby not only as a coach but as a physical therapist as well.

I absolutely loved working with her!! It was the best decision I made! I loved the strength and running plans she gave me, but I loved even more her dedication to me as her client!

She was so attentive every step of the way and modified or progressed things as things changed throughout the training cycle.

I was able to return to racing and start and finish the race with NO injuries. I PRed in the 10k and even placed in the top female racers.

I would HIGHLY recommend Gaby to anyone looking for an attentive and experienced coach that truly cares about you and your goals!

I came to Gaby after local physical therapists could not resolve a few chronic issues I was experiencing. Although her and I work together virtually her approach to the strengthening and mobility I needed has been spot on with noticeable improvements since her and I started. Gaby works with you, listens to your questions, or concerns and addresses them by either modifying the exercises or explaining things so that you understand what to expect. She genuinely cares about the people she is helping, it’s evident by the lack of “going through the motion” and just moving the appointment along you experience elsewhere. I don’t know where I’d be without Gaby’s help, you won’t regret working with her.

I started working with Gaby after pulling my hamstring playing tennis. She helped me regain strength in my leg and created a plan to prevent future injuries. Gaby had me back on the court quickly and even went to cheer me on at my first match!  I am so happy to have found such a knowledgeable and FUN physical therapist. I would recommend her to everyone.

Gaby got me back on the tennis courts quickly!  When I first met her, I had terrible tennis elbow/forearm pain that was impacting my daily activities. I was distraught thinking that it was the end of my tennis season. Gaby gave me strengthening and stretching exercises that improved my mobility almost immediately. She made the sessions fun and engaging as she gave me motivation to keep working hard. I highly recommend her as a knowledgeable and professional physical therapist!

Coming into physical therapy with Gaby as my therapist, I was starting my track season, experiencing dreadful pain in my hips that had occurred for over a year due to a previous injury.

Gaby is the only physical therapist I’ve worked with that successfully helped me gain lasting and satisfying results. Upon meeting Gaby, she immediately established a comforting foundation - allowing me to inform her of the problem so we could quickly act accordingly.

Throughout working with her, I was always updated on progress which made me feel comfortable the entire therapy session. Not only did Gaby instruct me through different exercises to do while at physical therapy, but she also provided me with exercises that I was able to do at home, ensuring that I could still strengthen and advance my mobility outside of the physical therapy workspace.

After working with Gaby, I was able to run the rest of my track season without any pain or discomfort and was even able to hit new personal records. She’s truly a life saver!

When I first came to see Gaby, I had a hamstring injury due to over training and putting a lot of stress on my legs. Gaby supported and encouraged me to take some necessary time to rest, which was is something that I was scared to do but it was so worth it. Gaby helped me gain the strength and flexibility back in my hamstring. She also helped me gain the confidence to start pushing myself harder.

Aside from being so helpful for my recovery, she has also been such a great person to spend time with, talk about my recruiting experience with, and just share my day with. I’m so grateful for all the help she has given me. 10 out of 10 physical therapy experience.

Starting physical therapy with Dr. Gaby Go at Healthy Baller has been one of the best decisions of my life. Every session I am pushed to grow mentally and physically.

Gaby pushes me to be stronger and to always give it my all. We have so many good laughs and chats throughout my session, which makes a tough rehab process much better. I wouldn't be where I am today if it wasn't for her.

I’m a soccer player currently going through ACL rehab. Gaby has been working with me through my recovery and she has been extremely helpful. I can witness just how much progress I have made in 3 months and more then that Gaby has been so help with the mental aspects of recovery.

Recovery is challenging and frustrating at times and it is easy to feel bad. Luckily I have Gaby’s support, constantly giving me reminders of my progress and emphasizing the importance of reflecting on how far I have come. I am so glad to have her support on this journey.

Working with Gaby has been a game changer for both my lifting and running. As a very active adult that takes their workouts seriously, I have struggled for years with my hyper mobility which has caused various minor injuries as well as general discomfort.

Gaby is the first person I have ever worked with that subscribed to a therapeutic practice of empowering your body to heal itself. We quickly identified some major imbalances and weaknesses, and immediately began working to strengthen them.

The results have been incredible. I’m able to move in ways I wasn’t before and my running, particularly on hills, is actually possible now! The strength gains that I have made working with Gaby are unmistakeable and I recommend her as a PT (and wonderful person) to everyone I know!

Following my ACL surgery, I have had to re-learn a lot of things like running, jumping, sprinting, and even skipping.

For the first 10 months, I had basic physical therapy. A couple of months before I was due to return to wrestling, I still wasn’t feeling ready and was very worried that I wouldn’t make it.

I was then recommended to Healthy Baller, a physical therapy center that specializes in getting athletes strength and technique back so that they could return to sport.

I went in for my initial testing and my results were not great and I knew it was still going to be a long journey.

I worked with Dr. Gaby Go to gain my strength, mobility, and confidence to return to sport. I am now wrestling because of her. She has pushed me and helped me in every session that we have had. She pushes me past the point of what I think I can do and always encourages me to do better.

The best thing is she always has a smile on her face and makes each session fun. I am very grateful to have had her as my PT specialist and I wouldn’t be here today if it wasn't for her.

Running is my happy place, and when two stress fractures and poor marathon training left me completely unable to run, I started in-person PT with Gaby and committed to recovery and rebuilding my strength. Gaby would explain the purpose of each strength-building exercise and identify the weaknesses in my hips, glutes, and quads that made me prone to injury. PT sessions became therapy for me. I am so happy to be running pain free again and training for the Chicago marathon! If you’re considering running-focused PT, know that you’ll experience a complete shift in mindset about strength and run training. For me, it went from something I never did to my #1 priority.

I had been dealing with calf pain for months every time I tried to run. That pain eventually led to me getting out of shape because I couldn’t run for more than a few minutes. I’m part of the Army National Guard and need to be able to run. I came to Gaby when I couldn’t resolve the issue myself. Gaby is very thorough with her examination. She paid close attention to every minute move I made and took not only a specific approach to my calf problem but also a global approach and addressed other areas of weakness as well. I received some of the best care possible from her. Gaby follows up constantly with me and is a huge supporter. Through working with her, I was able to get back to running problem free and return to doing things I love such as playing recreational sports. I just recently passed my PT test for the NG without any issues. I would be in really bad shape if it wasn’t for Gaby. She is truly dedicated to her patients!

I decided to work with Gaby for my run and strength training for Chicago marathon and I am so happy I did! We worked on muscle imbalances I have from previous knee injuries. On race day, I was able to knock 6 minutes off my previous PR, qualify for Boston, and more importantly, I felt confident throughout the whole race and never felt like I was running out of steam. I was able to negative split the last 10K and finish very strong. I had never felt that way in previous marathons!! Thank you Gaby for holding me accountable and helping me crush my goals.
