What Athletes Are Saying
Real stories from athletes and active adults who got back to doing what they love.
If you have an injury go to Nate Harris. Best Physical Therapy place I've ever been to. Helped me recover from a grade II ankle sprain very quickly. He is also a great person to talk to, he is very funny and great to be around.
Bryce Bunting
Nate has a wealth of rehab knowledge. Have been to see him a couple times over the years and have left not only with injuries resolved, but also a blueprint for preventing recurrences in the future. Would definitely recommend him to anyone looking to get back to their sport and/or active lifestyle.
Daniel Olache
Therapy worked great. My son broke his finger during a baseball game. The break caused him to be in a large full arm cast for 6 weeks. Once healed he lost muscle tone and strength, both he needed back for upcoming high school and spring sports. Weekly visits with Nathan PT improved his strength and returned his ability to perform behind the plate. Highly recommend sports therapy for any athlete.
Amy Dempsey
After my ACL surgery, Nate helped me recover and return to lacrosse and cross country stronger and better than ever! My recovery was such a positive experience and I highly recommend him!
Emmy Wood
Had a great experience. Nate helped me with a shoulder injury and an hip injury and thanks to him I had a good recovery and I am back to playing sports and doing my regular workouts.
Henry Meyer
I had “little leaguer’s elbow” and decided to start working with Dr. Nate Harris. He is an amazing person and helped me get to a point I wasn’t at before. I began to throw harder than I did before just from working with Dr. Nate.
L Ackerman
Nate was instrumental in getting my son back to a healthy place. After trying multiple doctors and other people, Nate was able to pinpoint the problem and put together a workout regime that fixed everything. I wouldn’t go to anyone else!
Nora deLyra
Emily Scott worked with my daughter to help heal her ankle injury this Fall. She is incredibly knowledgeable, easy to work with and super friendly. Emily sent us home with a set of comprehensive instructions and photos to continue PT at home and was always quick to respond to questions over email. I would highly recommend working with Velocity Sports Physical Therapy and Emily!
Amanda Doherty
Highly recommend Nate for athletes. My son seen him three times and his velo has been increasing ever since.
Tangee Stone
Nate is a top notch PT with great technology to help assess and rehab patients. He helped my knee get back to 100% after just one session and a few weeks of exercises at home.
Zack Everett
We cannot say enough good things about Nate Harris. Our son had a tear in his elbow a result from a baseball injury. Nate not only worked with our son with PT but suggested alternative treatments which all together resulted in a full recovery. Highly recommend him!

Great experience with Nate from start to finish. As an athlete, I couldn’t ask for anything better coming back from an injury. He gives you all the resources needed to come back better than before. Would recommend to anyone needing a PT!

Nate is the ultimate professional. He scheduled my visit in a timely manner, diagnosed my condition appropriately, and created a treatment plan that was both aggressive and reasonable.

Helped me come back from labrum surgery in no time and haven’t looked back since. So grateful for this place.
Brendan Gilbert
This was the best PT experience I’ve ever had, from the therapists to the facility and especially due to the progress that I saw. Aiden was so knowledgeable about the best treatment to correct my injuries and he even suggested homeopathic recommendations to address the problem holistically. If I could give more stars I would.
Madeleine Jebavy
Coach Nate is the best! My son, a Freshman college baseball pitcher, had an arm injury. After a thorough evaluation Coach Nate developed an individual 8 week plan and helped recover safely. He’s very professional and his facility had all the latest technology to help my son regain his strength. We highly recommend Coach Nate at Velocity Sports.

Nate Harris is the real deal. He helped me with my physical therapy after a UCL sprain. He accommodated my busy schedule, provided me with feedback on how I was progressing and helped me return beyond my baseline with no pain. I am throwing the hardest I have ever thrown , thanks to Nate.
Taylor Slade
I would absolutely recommend Nate to anyone who needs recovery with any part of the body. I have seen amazing progress with healing my elbow that was inflamed from overuse by throwing. Nate has incredible insight, knowledge, and tools to help any injury. If I ever get injured again I know who I’m going to.

I worked with Aidan Kennedy and he went above and beyond with helping me get back to full strength while recovering. I truly am greatful for all the work he did with/for me and will be recommending his work to anybody who is in need!!!
Luke Borger
I have had ongoing knee pain for many years. I’ve been to many physical therapists and never found a solution. When I was ready to give up on PT altogether, I was seen by Dr. Aidan Kennedy who thoroughly listened to all of my symptoms and was able to come up with a treatment plan that helped me get back to my usual workouts! Thanks Aidan for all your help!
Cam Eason
Went to Dr.Harris after a torn acl surgery. Recovery was amazing with him. Went by fast and very encouraging. Got me back to all my activities sooner than expected! Highly recommend.
Lachlan Barefoot
Overall incredible experience and couldn’t recommend more. I had the pleasure of working with Aidan K and he helped me come back stronger than ever.
Brandon Peretin
I have seen Nate and Aidan for the past 2 years from an elbow injury and a torn labrum. They have been able to help me and keep me from getting elbow surgery with physical therapy treatment. They have also helped me with a speedy recovery after getting shoulder surgery in July. I highly recommend seeing them as they are some of the best PT out there.

I have done PT with Nate and his team for 2 separate surgeries (elbow and shoulder). He has helped me back to full recovery twice when I was told there was less than a 30% chance I would be back to playing softball! I will always rely on him and his team. They are nothing less than wonderful!

Most sports-centric PTs in Charleston. Super knowledgeable and passionate.

Aiden and Nate do great work, helped me rehab my torn labrum from constant pain to pain free

I have been to coach Nate multiple times for injuries and arm pain. He knows what he is doing and what ever he gives me to do it works like a charm. That is why I would recommend him.

FAQs
Common questions about sports physical therapy, what to expect, and how we work at Velocity Sports PT.
Do you take insurance?
We are out of network and we work with most insurance plans. We accept HSA and FSA, and we can provide a superbill so you can submit to your insurance for potential reimbursement. Many patients find the one-on-one model more than worth it compared to the co-pays and limitations of in-network care.
How long will it take to get back to my sport?
That depends on your injury, your sport, and where you are starting from. We build a plan based on your exam findings, your training demands, and your goals, and we give you a clear picture of what to expect at each stage. Many athletes notice meaningful progress within the first few sessions.
What does a session look like?
Every session is fully one-on-one for the entire hour, just you and your physical therapist. We combine hands-on treatment with sport-specific exercise and education so you understand your body and your plan.
Do you work with high school and youth athletes?
We work with athletes from middle school, high school, college, and professionals.
Do you offer telehealth?
Yes, telehealth is available. It is a good option for follow-up visits, programming check-ins, and consultations when coming in-person is not practical.
Still have questions?
We are happy to talk through what you are dealing with before you commit to anything.
