My Story

I became involved in endurance sports at an early age. Like most passions, I dove in with everything I had. I ran cross country and track throughout high school and an early part of college. I suffered many injuries that eventually led me to stop competitive running.

I’ve never been one to let obstacles get in the way of my goals. In college, I spent most of my time learning about how my injuries occurred and how to get at the root of my injuries. I visited with physical therapist, Jay Dicharry, at the University of Virginia SPEED Performance Clinic to help understand my running injuries and how to perform at my best.

As I got back on the road with running, I became passionate about cycling and bike racing. When I wasn’t busy studying, I was out racing my bike. I was fortunate enough to qualify for the 2014 USA Cycling Collegiate Road National Championships my senior year.

As I continued to race and train, I finished my undergraduate and physical therapy degrees. My personal experience coupled with my professional knowledge has allowed me to help so many people. I love problem solving and helping people move better. If you’re like me, sport is a part of your life and always will be. Let me help you stay on the road doing what you love.

Why cash based?

Youngblood Physical Therapy & Sports Performance is an out of network provider. This means that I do not directly take insurance. This allows me to spend as much time as needed treating your specific problem without worrying about working for insurance companies. This allows me to give you the highest quality service and the treatment you deserve!
