Testimonials from Patients

I would recommend that everyone work with Ginger Garner. She is without a doubt the best physical therapist I have ever worked with. She understands the human body like no one I have ever met. She is an intuitive healer and is caring, kind, and knowledgeable. Ginger genuinely wants the best for her patients. She helped me to understand my own body more effectively so I could heal from my injuries. I would drive for hours to see Ginger as a patient. All of Ginger’s techniques are backed by the latest evidence based practice. She is an inspiration to me and so many others. If you want to feel your best I highly recommend you do yourself a favor and see Ginger Garner.
She has also been a mentor for me as a physical therapist since completing her Professional Yoga Therapist training program.

Dr. Garner has been great to work with. She really listens to what the patient says. The ultrasound imaging really helps us confirm what I am feeling. She does a great job looking at the whole body vs. just the area that is hurting which is really important. I have learned a lot about how my muscles are not working well together and how to slowly work to fix this issue. This is due to Dr. Garner literally showing me how certain muscles are inhibited when I try to activate them. I am really glad that I am slowly recovering and hopefully avoiding an unnecessary surgery!

You are in excellent hands with Dr. Garner. I felt completely prepared and confident going in to my first labor experience after consulting with her, and have been equally taken care of after giving birth! She is an absolute gem and an extremely knowledgeable provider!

Endometriosis is hard and living with it on a daily basis can make you feel powerless. Dr. Garner is kind, patient and has a wealth of knowledge that is invaluable. After our sessions, I have a ‘roadmap’ to better health, feel more empowered and have the confidence to go back to my daily life, take control of my disease, and move forward instead of staying stagnant. Thank you, Dr. Garner, for helping me to reclaim my life!!

Dr. Garner is amazing! She truly cares about what you are struggling with and goes above and beyond to help come up with a plan of treatment to fix it. Before finding Garner Pelvic Health, I was terrified about what to do and who to go to for help with my Endometriosis diagnosis. Finding Dr. Garner was such a blessing. She has truly been extraordinary in helping me take control back my health and listened to every single ailment that has come up in this Endo journey. She has such a passion for helping women through their Endo journey. Highly recommend!!

So grateful for Dr. Garner and the team at Garner Pelvic Health! I was feeling so lost on my journey with endometriosis and have received such expertise, compassion and care working with Dr. Garner. Every appointment I feel I leave with a clear, actionable plan that is helping me reach my goals. Dr. Garner takes such a holistic and individual approach and my work with her has truly changed my life. Thanks team- forever grateful!

I have LOVED working with Dr. Garner! I started seeing her 2 years post partum after my second, then got pregnant with my third and we started working on prenatal techniques. After recently having my third, I have felt stronger and have bounced back quicker than with my previous pregnancies. I’m looking forward to healing my pelvic floor with Dr. Garner’s wealth of knowledge and evidence based techniques.

I worked with Dr. Garner virtually for several visits and it was truly fantastic. My goal to be able to do yoga with my limitations felt unreachable. She was also able to help me with my hip pain with this plan. She is so knowlegeable about hip and hyper mobility (only 2 of my issues). It is ashame that there are not more practitioners like her so we can do in person visits. I without hestitation would go to her again, and would highly recommend that you do the same. You won’t be disappointed!

I travelled a long distance to work with Dr Garner intensively to aid my recovery from several hip arthroscopies. Her knowledge of this complex area is unrivalled, particularly as she understands both the hip and pelvic aspects of this tricky recovery. Dr Garner is utterly forensic in hunting down the root cause of issues, and putting together a bespoke plan to tackle. Despite working intensively, the experience was very easy due to Dr Garner’s warm hearted empathetic nature, and extreme patience – there was no question she could not answer! A true expert in her field I am very grateful for her guidance.

Dr. Garner’s attention to detail helped to uncover an existing issue impeding the healing of a fresh injury. Without her insight, I would have continued to have pain and swelling which may have led to chronic pain or even re-injury. Her careful evaluation put me on the road to recovery. I cannot thank her enough and would recommend her whole-heartedly.

Ginger Garner’s expertise is fascinating, and it’s refreshing to be with a specialist who really cares and takes the time to explain and provide training for patients to help themselves. The photo should be amusing, but it was also very informative when she explained the connection between the voice, the throat and that entire tube going through our body all the way down to the pelvic floor. Everything is connected. Muscles and ligaments interact with our diaphragmatic breathing and all that affects the condition of the pelvic floor area. Dr. Garner’s enthusiasm for her work, her scholarship, her research and clinical evidence reveals her integrity, and I’m grateful to have found such an interesting Doctor who is multifaceted in her approach. I know she has a great female clientele, but I wish more men would seek out her treatments for their benefit, as well.

It was Dr. Garner’s pelvic and orthopaedic PT experience, deep knowledge and expertise combined with her true emotional intelligence that reached me. Her physical and emotional guidance throughout my hip arthroscopy recovery empowered me with the understanding and tools I needed to move, heal, and finally be free. I live in Honolulu and after several online sessions with Dr. Garner I (with no hesitation) made two separate trips (during the global pandemic) to visit her in person in her clinic in Greensboro. The way she listens deeply, works intently, follows up deliberately and cares completely and compassionately makes the thousands of miles beyond worth it. I literally use what she’s taught me every day. Dr. Garner generously provides information through a wide variety of mediums (social media, blog, youtube, workshops, books, online and in clinic!) and I encourage you to learn from her however you can! Dr. Garner has my complete trust and I cannot recommend her highly enough.

Dr Garner is amazing and I’m so glad I found her. Her holistic approach in treating a chronic pain issue has been wonderfully effective, and her knowledgeable and almost intuitive understanding of the cause and effects of the pain is beyond anything I’ve ever experienced in a treatment center. Perhaps it’s because she listens so carefully, or maybe it’s her years of experience. Molly, my wonderful Pilates coach, recommended her highly, and boy am I glad she did. Very grateful to have found Dr Garner.
C. May
Dr. Garner is incredibly knowledgeable, creative and compassionate. She takes the time to listen and has the experience to get to the root cause of the problem. After each session I leave feeling empowered to do the work I need to do to get better. And she does it all with a gentle smile and good humor. I drive an hour to see her and it is worth it!
Annie Tadross
Dr. Garner is first and foremost an excellent listener. She listened to my difficulties, asked questions, put together a plan and asked me what I thought and how my body felt all through the process. She was creative in finding solutions for my unique issues. We worked together to develop a plan. She kept detailed notes and found solutions that will work for me and my lifestyle. Dr. Garner’s knowledge is wide ranging and she is very caring and aware of individual needs. I felt improvement in my first visit and can see a path forward to more physical improvement.

Those of you in the Greensboro area, count yourselves blessed that Ginger Garner is opening her practice near you!  Ginger has gentle hands, a tender heart, and a head full of knowledge. She has successfully helped me recover from shoulder surgery, knee pain, lower back pain, and sacroiliac joint issues. There is no physical therapist, yogi, or Pilates instructor of her equal!! She cares for the whole body, and will make you feel both better physically and better about yourself. From personal experience, I can highly recommend Ginger.

I am a singer/songwriter and teacher, so my voice is of special significance in my life.  When I began to have severe throat and neck pain while speaking and singing, Ginger was recommended to me by a friend. At that time and for the next two years, Ginger’s practice was five minutes from my home.  As I met with her during these two years, she would listen attentively to my needs and concerns and respond with many helps.  Ginger prescribed therapeutic exercises for me to practice on my own and made certain that I knew how to do them correctly by giving a written explanation as well as providing videos for reinforcement.  In addition, Ginger referred me to other practitioners for systemic health concerns that I shared with her.  Ginger couples compassion and gentleness with diligent expertise in her treatment of patients.  Even though Ginger has recently relocated, I still enjoy the benefits of her treatment as I begin every morning with the exercises she taught me.  I am grateful for God’s provision of Ginger’s gifting to guide me through a season of pain into rest.  Thank you, Ginger!

I couldn’t recommend Ginger enough! She saved me from a second shoulder surgery. I am very impressed with the way she blends Western medicine with Eastern knowledge and techniques. She didn’t ignore the need for x-rays, and possible surgery; but worked with me on an anti-inflammatory diet and gave me appropriate exercises to try to bring function back to my shoulder. It worked!!! We were both diligent and after 6 months, I am happy to say I am pain free and have near full range of motion! What a wonderful experience. I am now a Yoga and Ginger fan! And, am on my way in learning about “clean eating”. It has all made a tremendous difference in my energy, health and overall quality of life! Thank You!!!

The holistic and all-encompassing approach Ginger takes in her life and her practice is second to none.  Ginger shared several options to look into that would provide more of the holistic type of care we wanted throughout our pregnancy and during delivery as well as the birth classes she provided.  
We met with Ginger for several sessions in the months leading up to delivery.  During that time she not only shared information with me about the stage of pregnancy and techniques to help mentally and physically prepare for the natural, drug-free, child birth we desired, but also with my husband. This was our first pregnancy and we both wanted to have all the tools we could to have a completely natural childbirth.  She suggested laboring positions for different stages and types of labor.  She also shared what to expect postpartum and with breastfeeding.  She shared a variety of answers to the many questions I seemed to have every visit.  
We felt so confident going into the birth knowing that Ginger had prepared us with all the tools necessary.  We are so genuinely grateful for the sessions we had with Ginger before, during and after the birth of our daughter, and son.  Oh and the ujyaii/victorious breath, I will forever be grateful for that breath Ginger helped me master… One doesn’t know the depth of a breath until you’re mid contraction! 
Thank you Ginger, for helping us navigate this terrifying and thrilling experience and for truly listening to and understanding our questions, thoughts and concerns about becoming parents.

Thank you Ginger….thank you, thank you…..for introducing me to yoga.
It has been the best thing I’ve ever done for my body and my mind and my soul and my music and my family and my well being and…well you get the idea.  I never imagined, four years ago when I was having such trouble with my back, that I’d be doing back bends and arm stands like I could do when I was a teenager.  I never thought I’d be running 4 to 5 miles at a time again either.  I don’t feel like I’ll be 50 in just a few short months.  I feel the best I’ve felt in a long time.  I wonder how I’ll feel at sixty?  Bring it on!

Dr. Garner was not the first physical therapist in Greensboro that I went to but she was the last, because she was able to help me where others didn’t quite have the right tools, knowledge, or drive. She takes the time to get to know you and your issue(s) and has such a wonderful “bedside manner” as to make you feel comfortable even in uncomfortable situations. I highly recommend her and her practice.

Testimonials from Professionals

Ginger, I am so grateful for your program. I don’t know where I would be mentally, emotionally or physically today, especially during COVID. Yoga opened doors within me that I forgot were there, and this has been a great gift I wasn’t seeking or expecting. If you ever feel in the coming days like you are talking into the void, know that people are hearing your message and appreciate you for sharing it!
Dr. Sarah Talley PT, DPT
Raleigh, NC
I just wanted to thank you for all you have done for me and let you know just how impactful you have been on my life. The past 5 years have some of the best and most stressed I have ever experienced. Because of you and the lessons learned at PYTI, I feel totally prepared for it all. 
I am practicing therapy the way patients deserve. I am happy working and the community loves MTY! 
My oldest son, Robert, was diagnosed with autism this year. I feel like all the training prepared me for this and he LOVES all the asana, pranayama, and vocal toning exercises we do. He is thriving and happy. 
Thank you for helping shape my life into this beautiful mess. I am forever grateful. .
