Volunteer Physical Therapy and Performance

Experiencia fantástica: I’m a personal trainer who loves to hike and lift weights. In the past, I have had pain in my foot, knees and lower back. Blake has helped me overcome my injuries and pain through dry needling, mobility work and strength training to improve if not completely correct the issues! I highly recommend him and his team and would send any client of mine to him!

Experiencia fantástica: My guy and I have both had the pleasure of working with Blake for various reason. And we both agree he was very helpful!! He's also warm, friendly and easy to work with!

Experiencia fantástica: I trust Dr. Blake with my care and the care of my athletes! He’s knowledgable, welcoming, and always gets straight to the problem. I highly recommend.

Experiencia fantástica: I am a long time runner and running is my passion so when I was sidelined with an overuse injury I was desperate to heal quickly and get back on my feet. I had tried laser therapy, compression therapy, cryotherapy, massage, rest, etc and nothing worked. But then I was blessed to have met and received treatment from Blake at Volunteer PT who worked with me once a week doing dry needling and strength exercises. In a matter of weeks I went from barely able to run 3 miles to now being able to do a 10 mile long run and able to run again the day after next and my pace is as fast as ever. My pain is steadily diminishing over time and I'll be back to where I was in no time! Dr. Blake is a life saver!

Experiencia fantástica: I did dry needling and physical therapy with Dr. Blake for a minor knee injury. I had immediate relief after just one appointment and fully healed up now. Highly recommend for any PT needs!

Experiencia fantástica: Fantastic guy. Knowledgeable and effective and personalizes sessions in an easy-going and fun way if you prefer it that way.

Experiencia fantástica: knowledgeable and effective in injury recovery!

Experiencia fantástica: As a Personal Trainer working with Dr. Blake, I highly recommend him. Several of my clients with issues like pelvic floor problems, shoulder, and knee pain have seen immediate improvements. Personally, he helped me recover quickly from a knee injury I got playing football. Dr. Blake is not only skilled but also personable, with a great sense of humor and the coolest socks! 10/10 recommend!

Experiencia fantástica: Dr Blake has provided great care and detail to getting me back to full health.

Experiencia fantástica: Blake is the best! He truly care about his clients and has a personal approach to everyone. You need to come here!

Experiencia fantástica: I would recommend anyone dealing with an injury/nagging pain to go see Blake/Volunteer PT. He took the time to explain why/how my body reacts to a stressor (injury/pain) and then explained why he is using certain techniques to relieve the pain. He puts it in a way you can understand which will help you feel more comfortable with techniques you’ve never tried. He is extremely knowledgeable and provided exercises and multiple modalities to help me get back on track. Thank you Blake!! Go see him and he will help you get back to living pain free!

Experiencia fantástica: Volunteer Physical Therapy is hands down the best in town! I’ve had a lot of PT experience, and Blake’s attention to detail, knowledge, and ability to get results is profound. I personally have gone to him from multiple injuries from back to shoulder and he gets the job done every time. I send all of my athletes to him as well. Not only do that get recovery, but they do it faster than any other PT service. Amazing person and cutting edge business, highly recommend Blake at Volunteer Physical Therapy!

Experiencia fantástica: Dr. Blake was great. PT was just what I needed for my shoulders.

Experiencia fantástica: Blake has been great in helping my 15 y/o son work on some nagging pain and strength issues from a baseball injury. He relates well to him, listens to what we tell him, and explains his plan and expectations. I would highly recommend him!

Experiencia fantástica: I have worked with Blake several times over the years. With my training in the gym, I’ve experience knee and shoulder pain. Blake gave me exercises for the knee pain as well as dry needling. He was very helpful and calm as I nearly passed out during the dry needling as well, trying to keep my mind off of the fact that there were needles poking out of it. Blake came through when I reached out to him last minute. I had injured my shoulder a week before competition. He was able to fit me into his schedule and do some cupping and manual therapy to get my shoulder to move for the comp with limited pain. Blake now works a little further than where I currently live, but I’d be willing to drive down to Murfreesboro the next time I need a PT!

Experiencia fantástica: I've had the pleasure of working with Dr. Blake at Volunteer Physical Therapy for about a month now. He takes the time to listen, provides 1:1 PT and ensures that your form is targeting the problem areas. He is very attentive and results oriented and quickly puts together a plan with targets to hit desired goals. I highly recommend Dr. Blake!

Experiencia fantástica: I've seen Dr Blake for a few nagging injuries and he's ALWAYS helped me get back to being pain free. He's very knowledgeable about his profession and He genuinely cares about his patients. With the ability to work with him one on one, he really puts his full effort into everyone he helps. Blessed to have him around!

Experiencia fantástica: This has been a tremendous experience working with Dr. Blake. I’ve had severe issues with numbness in my toes and many years of low back pain due to hip and ankle issues. He always provides an upbeat atmosphere and a personalized understanding of the exercises that optimize my time in the gym. Looking forward to my next visit!

Experiencia fantástica: We had a great experience! Blake helped our daughter recover from her injury quickly. Great with kids.

Experiencia fantástica: I have been dealing with severe hip pain and pinching whenever I squat, sleep, or sit for extended periods of time. After a significant time dealing with this, I sought out Blake for help! Blake did a detailed assessment of me and my movement, and went through an introduction into what the next couple of weeks would look like with him as my physical therapist. Every appointment, the programming was spectacular. Blake takes the time to instruct you through each movement, and also explains why each movement is vital to your plan back to health. In just 6 short weeks with Blake as my PT, I am pain free! I highly recommend Volunteer Physical Therapy and Performance!

Experiencia fantástica: Blake did a phenomenal job! I came in with some knee and hip pain and after just a few sessions with Blake I was feeling great and continue to have zero pain! Thanks for all you do Blake! I highly recommend!

Experiencia fantástica: I had a great experience at Volunteer PT & Performance. When I went in I couldn’t turn my neck and Dr. Blake had me back to normal in a few sessions! I much prefer this type of setting where you can get 1:1 time with your therapist compared to other clinics where the therapist is seeing multiple patients at once. Highly recommend!

Experiencia fantástica: I am a college football player who has been a frequent patient at Volunteer PTP. I originally went to Volunteer PTP for a back issue. Within a couple of visits, it was completely healed. Blake Huddleston also showed me a few exercises I can use to on my own. During spring practice, I had a MCL injury. I just finished my 6 visit plan this summer and now I am ready to get back at football. I have had only good experiences with Volunteer PTP.

Experiencia fantástica: Volunteer Physical Therapy + Performance is in a great location with access to all the equipment I need and more to aid my recovery. Blake has been extremely knowledgable and helpful when it has come to dealing with my back injury. As a Division I rower, having an injury is extremely frustrating but I look forward to working with Blake each week. He has my best interest in mind and is simply fun to be around which makes physical therapy even more enjoyable! I would definitely recommend this clinic to anyone in the active population who wants to go back to being themselves again pain-free!

Experiencia fantástica: Blake is an amazing PT! He goes above and beyond for his people. I will always recommend him!

Experiencia fantástica: As a PGA Professional who has hit a lot of golf balls in my life, Blake has done a great job resetting my body as I continue to play competitively in my 30’s. If you’re an athlete you should strongly consider Blake to help you achieve your goals!

Experiencia fantástica: Dr. Blake is amazing to work with! He created a plan to reduce my pain from past injuries, strengthen the muscles, and to meet specific goals to measure growth. He has taught me several exercises for strengthening my muscles and has given me many stretches, which has been a huge help. Now I have the tools I need in case any symptoms return later! He’s easy going, welcoming, and makes you feel comfortable—I highly recommend!

Experiencia fantástica: Blake is amazing!!! He fixed my daughters shoulder without surgery & was able to strengthen it in the process from a swim injury! He also keeps me moving!!

Experiencia fantástica: I had a great experience with Mr Huddleston. He was professional, offered advice, and was flexible with appointments when my schedule changed. Thanks again Blake!

Experiencia fantástica: I'm a powerlifter and had been suffering from severe lateral hip pain during squats for over 3 months. I'm talking 8/10 pain that completely took me out of squats, which was extremely stressful as a powerlifter who is looking to compete in the very near future. I did everything I could to diagnose it and rehab it on my own, but after 3 months I became desperate for outside help and reached out to Dr. Blake after finding him online and reading his amazing 5-star reviews. From our very first appointment, I knew I was in good hands. After some initial screening of my strength, mobility, and stability of my lower body, Dr. Blake identified a few areas of weakness and developed a personalized rehab plan to get me back to squatting my max in just a matter of weeks. To be completely honest, I was skeptical of such an optimistic timeline at first. There's something horrible about being in pain, not being able to do what you love, and feeling like it's going to be that way forever. After all, I'd already been suffering for months! But I put in the work and did my rehab exercises as Dr. Blake prescribed and did my best to stay positive. Not only did I experience noticeable pain relief in the first two weeks, but I was back to squatting my max squat by the end of week four and squatting even heavier by end of week six, completely pain-free. I wish I had reached out to him sooner! Dr. Blake is extremely passionate about what he does. He truly listens and treats you like you're his only client, and his infectious personality had me looking forward to every session. I cannot recommend him enough! Thank you Dr. Blake!

Experiencia fantástica: I had gone to the orthopedic & was diagnosed with arthritis & later on a torn meniscus in my knee. I experienced pain, inflammation & swelling that was preventing me from running (what I LOVE to do!) I then set up a consultation with Blake and on my first visit, he helped me set SMART goals. The following week, he started dry needling as well as giving me exercises to strengthen not only my knees , but hips & other weak areas. I love the one-on-one I receive during our sessions & look forward to going each week! He thoroughly explains everything during each exercise, not just the “what” but also the “why”. This truly is complete & total care in my book! I’m so thankful that I chose this option instead of surgery & am very confident that I will be able to get back to running soon. I highly recommend Blake and Volunteer Physical Therapy!

Experiencia fantástica: Dr. Blake is amazing. He has a kind heart and a real desire to lead you to recovery. He knows how to make you feel comfortable and explains things in a way you can understand. If you are looking for a quality physical therapist look no further! He’s your guy.

Experiencia fantástica: Our son came to Volunteer Physical Therapy with a hamstring strain he received during the football season. At the time of his injury, he could not run or do lower body exercises without pain. Dr. Huddleston was very thorough with his initial exam, did a great job communicating therapy needs, and what each session would entail. After the first session, our son immediately had some relief. During this session, he had dry needling, worked on stretches and exercises to help with the strain. We continued the therapy for 6 weeks, and each week saw more improvement. Dr. Huddleston communicated with our sons school athletic trainer, as well as, his coach at TriFit. Together, they were all able to help Lincoln make the progress he needed to get back to running and working out pain free. I can’t recommend Volunteer Physical Therapy enough. Each session was individualized towards our son and getting him back to the activites he loves.

Experiencia fantástica: I met with Blake one day following my second knee replacement. I wanted to take advantage of everything in the toolbox. Dry Needling with Stim is an example of treatment you won't get in a typical PT environment. I also appreciate the fact that during my hour sessions, Blake is focused on me. During those sessions we focus on getting my performance back. We're not focused on a one size fits all rehab plan. I'm very happy with my progress and can't reconnect talking to Blake before choosing where you do your PT!

Experiencia fantástica: I came in because I had hurt my shoulder lifting weights. Severe pain… couldn’t even hardly lift my arm, couldn’t sleep on that side. As soon as I went for my first visit and experienced “dry needling” my shoulder immediately felt better, it still hurt but over the course of a couple of months and doing all the stretches prescribed plus them graciously fixing my form on weights (that hurt me in the first place) I can finally say I’m back to pre injury form and maybe even better. 100% recommend.

Experiencia fantástica: I came to Blake with sciatic pain that I’ve been dealing with for 5 years. I’ve never gone a day without feeling pain in those 5 years. I had around 4/5 session with Blake where he dry needled me and gave me exercises to do. The first couple weeks I was skeptical, but after the 3rd and 4th visit, I was a believer. I haven’t had pain 2 weeks, praise God! I am now able to workout pain free as well as not be in pain days after I workout! I can’t thank Blake enough for helping me out, I was losing hope that I would ever be pain free.

Experiencia fantástica: Blake is very knowledgeable and comfortable to work with. Within my sessions we have been able to address 2 nagging injuries I’ve been dealing (shoulder and knee)with and I’m feeling much more confident with exercising and lifting now. I’m stronger and pain free! Couldn’t ask for much more!

Experiencia fantástica: I had neck pain and Blake did a great job in healing me. He really knows his stuff. Great guy

Experiencia fantástica: Blake does an amazing job working with daughter and has helped so much to get her body healed amd on track to avoid future injuries!! Can’t recommend him enough!

Experiencia fantástica: Blake is awesome! Had a knee issue and he didn’t even tell me I have to quit fitness like a lot of “experts” would have. Instead, we worked on some needling and exercises to strengthen the area. Good dude, smart dude.

Experiencia fantástica: Quick results in a friendly environment.

Experiencia fantástica: Great one-on-one physical therapy specifically designed for athletes. Blake specializes in rehabbing athletes and the results definitely show. I’ve recovered faster from this knee injury and will be ready to run my half marathon. I highly recommend!

Experiencia fantástica: Blake at Volunteer is one of the best there is. He’s very knowledgeable and works on getting you healthy with what is best for you. One of the many great things about volunteer is there’s never a “you need to stop working out to get better”. He teaches you techniques to help with pain to heal and get you back to 100% as quick as possible. 10/10 recommend.

Experiencia fantástica: I have nothing but wonderful things to say about Blake. He has helped me overcome my back issues while I was pregnant and postpartum. Definitely someone I would recommend to friends and family!

Experiencia fantástica: Blake is amazing!! I brought my son to him for some knee pain, and not only did he get him moving pain free within 3 visits, he also set him up for success in the future by giving him exercises he can do if the pain ever comes back. My son is back to running sprints in soccer pain free with his help! Thank you for everything!

Experiencia fantástica: I have had surgery 3 times on my right shoulder and 2 times on my left. I haven’t been able to throw a ball because I couldn’t even raise my arm above my head so I was hoping for a miracle. After my first appointment my pain stopped and after 3 visits my shoulder was working like it was supposed to. Dr. Blake has definitely given me the knowledge to maintain healthy shoulders and to be pain free for the rest of my life. Truly a life changing experience. I would recommend to anyone with any type of shoulder issues.

Experiencia fantástica: I immediately felt comfortable and heard when I explained pain. Blake knew exactly what needed to happen! I purchased a reasonably priced package for 10 visits. I was feeling like a new person after 3 and continue to progress with each appointment. Thank you for giving me my life back!

Experiencia fantástica: Blake was awesome to work with. He had exercises prepared for me each visit and shared videos with me to make sure I could continue the therapy at home. I haven’t had shoulder pain since visiting Blake! He also showed me proper form to keep from future injury.

Experiencia fantástica: Blake is very knowledgeable at what he does! He is not just a clinician, he is a friend! He makes PT fun and helped me get back to lifting in the gym. 10/10 would recommend!

Experiencia fantástica: Blake at Volunteer Physical Therapy is a wizard. I went to see him after noticing my shoulder was giving me some problems during some overhead movements and after one session of dry needling and mobility, I had no pain at all! Blake is also very personable and works around your schedule incredibly well. He was able to get me in for an appointment the same day I reached out!

Experiencia fantástica: I highly recommend Dr. Blake! He has impeccable knowledge and teaching skills as to the “why” and the solution to injury or pain. Super bedside manners and down to earth Christian guy!

Experiencia fantástica: Dr. Blake is so awesome! Helped me tremendously with my achilles tendonitis. His specialty is working with athletes to get them back to their sport. Very easy to work with. He explains everything in great detail and really takes the time to get to know his athletes. I never felt rushed and he answered all my questions. Highly recommend anyone to Dr. Blake especially if you are an athlete of any kind!!!!

Experiencia fantástica: Setting the bar high for PT!! Blake is attentive, highly knowledgeable, client focused, and extremely easy to work with. Thank you Blake!

Experiencia fantástica: I’ve been to Blake for two different issues now. Both times he has managed to help me feel so much better! Blake is always a text or call away if I have a question and has worked with my difficult schedule multiple times. His Instagram reels are some of my favorites as well

Experiencia fantástica: If you are wanting help recovering from an injury and and need to get back to a high level of performance, Dr Blake is your guy! Blake does an excellent job finding the root cause of the issue and fixing it so that the problem goes away for good. His personalized approach is incredible and effective. You won’t find this quality of care anywhere else!

Experiencia fantástica: Blake was always willing to help explain his philosophy and the exercises to make sure I was fully on board with the program. It is obvious that he is passionate about helping others get better.

Experiencia positiva: I came to Blake to keep an injury that I was experiencing under control while increasing my training load. His evaluation, information, and recommendations were all knowledgable and inclusive to everything I was focusing on. He got my back feeling better by dry needling and also helped by showing me how to increase mobility where I needed it.

Experiencia fantástica: I went to Blake and his team after hurting my knee doing a workout. He was very thorough in explaining what I had done and what he saw as the fix. Throughout my time there, he taught me how to rehab the knee and how to take care of it moving forward. I was absolutely thrilled with my rehab and he is an absolute pro at what he does.

Experiencia fantástica: I came to see Blake with Volunteer PT for a torn meniscus. He has been an outstanding PT by helping me meet my goals of getting back to the gym doing the things I love! He provides great education during your sessions, listens to your needs, and is responsive for followup questions after your sessions!

Experiencia fantástica: Blake is the best! Very knowledgeable and wants you get back to the things you love to do. I have some banged up shoulders from years of sports and Blake has been helping me repair the years of damage I have caused. Always an encouragement too. Go see him!!!
