Physical Therapist in Austin TX Built Around Your Training Goals
Your Goals Deserve Expert Care.
Your PT Doc exists because active adults deserve more than generic protocols and short-term fixes. You deserve a physical therapist in Austin TX who takes the time to understand what's actually driving your pain and builds a plan that translates to your training.
Why Your PT Doc exists
Too many runners, lifters, and athletes spend months cycling through care that doesn't address the root cause. Your PT Doc was founded to change that offering one-on-one evaluation, clear explanations, and progressive rehab that builds confidence under load.
Our Values
How we approach care at Your PT Doc
Every decision we make, from how we schedule to how we evaluate, centers on helping you understand your body and return to training with confidence. These principles guide our work with every runner, lifter, and active adult who walks through our door.
Root-cause reasoning, not symptom chasing
Pain is a signal, not the full story. We take time to understand the movement patterns, strength deficits, and tissue capacity driving your symptoms so you get a plan that addresses the actual problem.
Education first, so you own your recovery
You shouldn't leave a session confused about what's happening or why it matters. We explain the reasoning behind every exercise and progression so you understand your body and can make informed decisions about your training.
Progressive loading that builds confidence
Rehab should prepare you for real-world demands. We use objective markers and graded loading to rebuild your capacity under fatigue, speed, and load—so you trust your body when it counts.
Collaborative care, not prescriptive orders
Your goals, constraints, and training identity matter. We work with you to build a plan that fits your life and respects what movement means to you, whether that's running, lifting, or getting back on the field.
Our Team
Built around one-on-one care
Every session at Your PT Doc is doctor-led and personalized to your goals.
Dr. Gabriel Dunham, PT, DPT
Physical Therapist
Dr. Gabriel Dunham grew up in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, and immigrated to the United States at the age of 9. This experience taught him resilience and adaptability – qualities he brings to every patient interaction.
As an active member of the soccer community since 2006, playing for Pflugerville High School and collegiate soccer at the University of Mary Hardin Baylor, Gabriel understands athletic injuries firsthand. His personal experiences with sports-related challenges drive his commitment to helping others overcome physical limitations.
What sets Gabriel apart is his unique ability to combine clinical expertise with genuine empathy. Being multilingual (English, Spanish, and Portuguese), he breaks down communication barriers that often exist in healthcare settings.
Real People. Real Results.
This is what our patients have to say about their experience with Dr. Gabriel and the Your PT Doc difference.
Really pleased with Dr Gabriel! Both my daughters play soccer and have experienced a wide variety of injuries over the years. There is always reduced pain and better range of motion after a single visit. I appreciate the time he takes to really diagnose the root cause!
Jess Walker
I came in with a lot of knee pain and within 2 visits my pain had drastically decreased. After just 4 visits I was back to playing g soccer like normal and after 6 visits I was pain free. He fixes problems I didn’t know I had and ones that just recently surfaced.

Dr Gabriel is fantastic. If you have a sports related injury, Dr Gabriel can get you back in the game ASAP.

Highly recommend Gabe as a PT. I went in to treat a nagging forearm/elbow injury and after one visit and the recovery plan designed by Gabe, I saw immediate results. He went into depth with diagnosis and how treatment and recovery plan would tackle the injury. Thank you Gabe, I will come back for any future injuries I may have!

Dr. Gabriel is incredible! He takes a personal approach and genuinely cares.

Dr. Gabriel has become an important key on my son's development as an athlete. Dylan has become stronger and faster. His self confidence has improved. He made all school sports teams without knowing much about the sports ( I know silly). His atheism made him stand out among hundreds of kids. I will be always thankful to Gabriel.
Dylan Romero
Highly recommended! Over the last few months my son has been having sessions with Dr. Gabriel due to knee pain and thanks to his treatment he has been able to keep playing soccer. Dr. Gabriel goes above and beyond explaining treatments and expectations.

Samuel Caire
Our 11yo son had knee pain that kept him from running and playing soccer. Dr. Gabriel worked with him and corrected his movements/stance/gate with strengthening exercises. Less than 2wks later he was running and playing soccer at full capacity! Without pain! He will continue to work with Dr. Gabriel and continue to strengthen.
Tim Moxon
Amazing! Gabe really took care of me! I rolled on my ankle back in October and after 2-3 weeks of doing home-care, it wasn’t getting better. So I decided to go see him and ever since Gabe has taken care of me. It’s been 4-5 weeks with no pains and I’m working my way back to playing soccer again with him!

Gabriel is very thorough and works great with young athletes.

Dr. Dunham is fantastic to work with and helped our son return to the baseball field. Our son is playing baseball pain free. We are grateful to have been referred to him and our family highly recommend Dr. Dunham.
Alex Reyna
Dr. Gabriel was very understanding and patient with my concerns and symptoms. I knew walking in PT wasn’t going to be a one time fix forever which is why I am grateful for the tools he has taught me to fix my hip and low back pain that I can continue to use in the future.

Angel Chan
My daughter suffered a pretty nasty elbow and shoulder injury playing soccer after a fall. Dr Gabriel saw her after she came out of the cast and quickly identified even more issues that we did not know about. After starting treatment with him, she recovered in a much shorter time than expected and he had her back to playing in no time! Highly recommend Dr. Gabriel- definitely the best around!
Jennifer Sanchagrin
After a year of shoulder pain I am making big steps on regaining functional range and strength
PJ Quealy
I was having on going back pain for weeks that wasn’t being remedied by any stretching, medication, etc. I saw Dr. Dunham who explained exactly what was going on. He pin pointed the area that was under stress and with one adjustment and routine exercises my back pain was completely gone in a few days. It was clear Dr. Dunham is an expert in his field.

After my experience, I had the absolute best, most relaxing night of sleep! Thanks to Gabe for taking his time & doing his best work! Would absolutely recommend!

The big difference is his attention to individual problems and the detailed process. It's been a great experience so far
Nathan Rajen
I was having very bothersome neck pain for weeks and after ~2-3 adjustments from Dr. Dunham, my pain completely resolved. He provided exercises to do outside of adjustments as part of the treatment plan to help with mobility and decrease pain. He is a very knowledgeable provider and cares about his clients' wellbeing! I would definitely recommend Your PT Doc!
Brittany Brown
hands are like magic. Thank you for healing my ankle!

I came to see Dr Gabriel with shoulder pain. Every day I suffered from pain but seeing him made the pain go away and I didn’t realize how much pain I was in until the pain went away and am more active than ever before! I definitely recommend him!
Pete Delgado
Had a great experience with Dr. Gabriel. I came in with a shoulder strain, and not only did he assist in the healing process, but he also taught me how to workout in a way that would enable me to prevent any injuries moving forward. He's awesome.
Julian Abam
Why go anywhere else for physical therapy. Gabriel finds the root cause for your concern and sets an execution plan to target rehabilitation and preventative measures in strengthening the “right”muscles to support our one goal. To enjoy the game we play without pain!
R FS
sooo trustworthy, kind hearted, and knowledgable. will forever recommend!!
R G
Great to find a physical therapist that concentrates on corrective movement patterns as well as adjustments to keep your body moving as it should. Progress is everything, thank you Gabriel!
p bush
Dr. Gabriel’s PT for my son who plays competitive soccer was instrumental in getting him back on the field quickly. Without reservation, we highly recommend Dr. Gabriel. He specializes in soccer type injuries. He created a comprehensive exercise plan to follow on a daily basis. It was simple to follow because of his process.
Edna Sokoll
My 9 yr old soccer playing son with a knee injury said “He’s the best. He has helped me so much. He got me better quickly!!!” (He wanted me to put a lot of exclamation points lol). Gabriel is really great. We are thankful for how much he has helped our son. And looking forward to continuing to work with him long term for injury prevention.
Kate Siems
When I was at a wedding I told him I had pain around my shoulders and helped me relieve some of the pain right there. Very kind soul, 100% recommend!
Sophia Sousa
I started out with Gabe after my injuy, and after just a week we had diagnosed what it was. Even after we got an MRI that was inconclusive his diagnosis was accurate. After I got my surgery he came to my house to continue to work. Gabe helped me go from barely bending my leg, to almost full range of motion in just a couple weeks. Would absolutely recommend to anyone going through any injuries.
Sean Rogers
Helped me greatly with my calf strain!
Chantal Sagnes
