Kayla earned her bachelor’s degree at the University of Central Oklahoma where she majored in kinesiology. She went on to receive her Doctorate of Physical Therapy from Missouri State University in 2019. During her clinical rotations, she was able to experience many different opportunities, including two pediatric clinicals, aquatic therapy, and two orthopedic clinicals including rehabilitation for many sports-related injuries.
Kayla loves people and enjoys working with all ages and backgrounds. She has always enjoyed helping others and developed a passion for physical therapy after sustaining a softball injury in which she required physical therapy. Kayla saw she could combine her passions and knew physical therapy was the career for her.

Linsey grew up in a small town in Southeast Kansas and went to a small high school where she played volleyball, basketball & softball. Her sophomore year of high school she tore her ACL in a basketball game, which required many months of PT. At the end of her rehab her surgical knee was stronger than her good knee. That was the moment she knew she wanted a career in Physical Therapy.
Linsey enjoys many outdoor activities and just recently started playing golf, which I love but is much harder than I expected. I hope to continue to get my bachelor’s degree eventually and looking forward to learning new specialties in the physical therapy field.

My pain was very great when I started therapy. The staff was helped me work through the pain. I am thankful my balance has greatly improved and swelling and pain is almost gone completely. I’m thankful I can walk again. Very positive experience for me.

When I came in for my first visit a few days after my surgery my knee bend was only 85º. Now at my last visit my bend is 115º! I am doing stairs almost normally, it is awesome! I am using my stationary bike at home just like I did before.
