I couldn't have asked for a better experience at GOAL. I tore my ACL last year and I'm recently back playing lacrosse this fall. I feel stronger than ever thanks to Owen, Kevin, Z, Sky, Jake, Mike & Whit! I would leave every session with progress and with a positive mindset about my recovery. The majority of my time at GOAL was with Owen and I appreciate everything he did to get me back on the field. I can't thank everyone enough!

I went to Goal after tearing my ACL and had a fantastic experience. The atmosphere is so supportive and welcoming and made recovery so much easier. I worked mostly with Sky, and he helped me get stronger and more confident as I went through rehab and returned to competitive soccer. The whole staff is kind and knowledgeable, creating a great environment every time I walked in. Goal was crucial to both my physical and mental recovery and I can’t recommend them enough!

The physical therapists are phenomenal. I was in need for rehab for pre-surgery on a torn hip labrum and am now in post-surgery rehab to get back to full functioning and beyond. Owen Gillam continues to provide personal 1:1 attention, therapy, and guidance for what my specific needs are with empathy, sincerity, professional PT expertise and experience in order for me to achieve every intention of mine for a complete recovery. He has repeatedly and proactively reached out to my orthopedic surgeon with finding answers to questions I have and is keeping my surgeon updated with my current levels of condition and treatment goals. Fully recommend this place for PT and conditioning and will continue to utilize their professional and effective expertise for the next 12+ weeks.

I recovered from my ACL injury at Goal doing PT with Schuyler Milone. I loved my experience at Goal. The energy was always great, music was always playing, and I always felt supported and motivated by the trainers and physical therapists. Goal is a true community and Sky, Zito, Kevin, Owen, and all the other people who worked there worked as one whole. I became so much stronger over the many months I came to Goal, and wouldn't have wanted to have spent my recovery time anywhere else.

I can't recommend Goal enough. I went in with an acute low back injury, and Goal not only helped me get back to everyday activities pain free but also progressed my training so that I could get back to playing golf and working out quickly. Most physical therapy facilities struggle to bridge the gap between relieving pain and returning to more rigorous activities (namely working out and reinforcing good habits). Goal excels at bridging this gap as it appears to be one of the only facilities in the Fairfield County area that has the expertise to address both a patient's physical therapy needs and return to exercise or sport needs. Without addressing the latter, you'll end up spending a lot more time and resources dealing with reoccurring aches and pains.

I worked with Sky at GOAL and had great results. He’s attentive, knowledgeable, caring and super accommodating. He tackles the issue from every angle with a personalized approach. I’ve never felt stronger and more confident in the gym. Great environment and love all the staff as well. Can’t recommend them enough!!

GOAL is an awesome place to get back into sports. After undergoing shoulder surgery in the fall, I only had around 4 months to get game ready before my lacrosse season started. With the amazing help from GOAL, I was able to get back into lacrosse at the beginning of the season. I worked with Owen, who made it his goal to get me back on the field as soon as possible. Some doctors estimated that it would take 6 months or more to fully recover, but with Owen’s expertise I was back on the field in 4 months. He also worked with my surgeon to make sure that my progress was at a rate that would not trigger a re-injury.

I had the best experience with Goal! I went to Goal because of bad pain from running/IT band syndrome and saw results within just a few visits. I worked specifically with Sky and can say only the best about him and all the other staff -- just overall a fun, friendly, and great environment! Not only do I feel so much better, but learned ways in which I can prevent an injury like this from happening again. Could not recommend Goal more!

I had Rotator Cuff Repair surgery in October 2022. I can’t thank the team at Goal enough for getting my shoulder back to full strength. All the physical therapists at Goal are amazing and are completely dedicated to their patients. Thank you all again!

I have loved my experience thus far at Goal! I am 2 months into my ACL and meniscus surgery recovery and am working towards return to play! The facility is perfect for one on one physical therapy and has all the equipment and trainers I was looking for in a pt for return to sport. I’m looking forward to the rest of my time at Goal and would recommend to any other athletes looking for training and physical therapy!

GOAL physiotherapy is the best around. After I tore my ACL, I wanted to find the best rehab possible for my recovery. As ACL tears are so severe, I wanted to come back better and stronger, and this first started with a place like GOAL. I specifically worked with Kevin throughout my rehab, and I would not have been able to succeed without him & the whole staff. I was always welcomed and greeted with a positive attitude every session, which was very beneficial to the mental aspect of an injury like this. Whenever my friends or someone I know has an injury, I always recommend GOAL to them. I knew from the first time that I walked in that I was going to come back stronger from my injury. Every time I had a question about my rehab, I was greeted with a positive and truthful response. Without GOAL, I would not have been the person nor player I am today.

Goal Physiotherapy facility is expectational, it is the best I've ever been to. The staff is committed to helping you get better, they greet you with warm smiles and go above and beyond to ensure you're on the best road to recovery. Everyone here is genuinely invested in your success. This level of dedication makes this place truly special.

My family has had an excellent experience at Goal. My daughter, age 12, worked with a Goal PT before and after her ACL surgery in May 2022. The PTs seem to specialize in ACL rehab, especially with kids and teens. We felt completely cared for and motivated through a tough recovery. She progressed according to schedule and I really appreciated the thoughtfulness of the exercises and monitoring of progress. Our PT also proactively communicated with the surgeon ahead of doctors appointments which really ensured that the surgeon had the correct and most up to date progress. Amazingly, she was back to skiing about 8 months after surgery!

Whitney and the team at Goal are the best in the business! I drive an hour one way, passing many other clinics, just to make sure I’m getting the best care available. Jake at the front desk is also extremely professional, helpful and super responsive. Don’t shop around for PT… go to Goal!
