Physical Therapist
Kelly received her Doctorate of Physical Therapy from Shenandoah University. As an avid runner, she is passionate about sports rehabilitation and training high-functioning individuals and athletes. She also has extensive experience with the older population, post-operative care, and chronic pain. No matter the person or their background, her goal is always to get them back to doing what they love for a better quality of life. Her diverse experience makes her a unique and valuable asset to the Virginia Therapy and Fitness Center!
Fun Fact!
I have traveled quite a bit! While earning my undergraduate degree at Virginia Tech, I studied abroad for six months in New Zealand, spent a month in Germany learning about the country’s horse industry, and a summer working on conservation research in the Peruvian rainforest. I then went on to become a Travel PT throughout Northern CA for a year before making my way back to VA.
What are some of your hobbies?
I grew up competitively horseback riding in hunter/jumpers on my rescue thoroughbred mare Tessa. When I’m not riding, you can probably find me trail running, hiking, or camping!
