Our Philosophy​

You will always be treated in an efficient and professional manner with a plan customized to you.

​Our goal is to get you better as quickly as possible.

We really mean it.

We believe your time is valuable and will use every minute of your appointment to help get you better in a safe, supportive space.
​​
No more feeling rushed, not listened to, or like a number. 

How We Are Different


​Each appointment you will see the same Doctor of Physical Therapy one-on-one for an hour.

​​​We don't sell packages or pressure you into making unnecessary appointments.

We begin treatment the first visit, and our clients typically start to feel better after 1-2 sessions.

Dr. Brandie is wonderful and simply the best! She is friendly and immediately sets you at ease. She truly listens to you and cares. I have been to numerous doctors and specialist to no avail. After just a couple sessions with Dr. Brandie she relieved my hamstring/groin/pelvic pain... She is truly a miracle worker and I cannot speak highly enough about her!!!!

DR. MEGAN SIMS, PT, DPT, CSCS

Pelvic and Orthopedic Physical Therapist
 Dr. Megan Sims, PT, DPT, Cert. DN, CSCS graduated with her Doctorate in Physical Therapy from Georgia State University.

​Starting at a very young age, Megan suffered from multiple joint dislocations, joint pain, and hypermobility that resulted in several surgeries, each surgery then requiring lengthy physical therapy sessions. She knew something wasn’t right with her health, but couldn’t find the right professionals to successfully address the root causes of her pain. Because of her personal struggles to find specialists that could help her, she set out to find answers for herself.  Through her research, she found her calling - to become a healthcare provider that is able to help anyone that might be fighting a similar battle. 

Dr. Megan’s interest in treating patients with pelvic floor dysfunction started when she was diagnosed with Interstitial Cystitis (Painful Bladder Syndrome). She was told she’d be on several medications for the rest of her life, and that she would have to learn to catheterize herself to have medication put directly into the bladder. Instead, Dr. Megan sought out pelvic floor PT, and had a 95% improvement in all symptoms- without medication or catheterization! Her interest and love for treating this population has only grown.

Dr. Megan also enjoys treating patients with connective tissue disorders; including Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (EDS), Lupus, etc. as well as their concurrent diagnoses; including Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS) and more. Dr. Megan has also worked as a Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist, training all levels of athletes, giving a unique perspective on how to get you back out there at the level you've already worked so hard to achieve.

Dr. Megan uses an individualized, research-based treatment approach to help you get back to what you love with less pain.  She uses a variety of techniques including dry needling, activity modification and muscle strengthening, and is constantly researching and learning new methods to address patient concerns.

DR. MAKAYLA HURST, PT, DPT

Pelvic Health Physical Therapist, Doula
 Dr. Makayla Hurst is an alumnus of Philadelphia College of Osteopathic Medicine where she earned her Doctorate of Physical Therapy degree. Before attending physical therapy school, Makayla attended Georgia Southern University where she graduated Magna Cum Laude with a Bachelors in Exercise Science while minoring in Psychology. She was born and raised in Georgia and proudly calls this state her home.

She has experience with a wide variety of populations as well as settings as clinician: two of her very favorites include Women's Health Pelvic Floor and Pediatrics. Makayla has a passion for pelvic floor physical therapy and works to add greater value to each individual through increased knowledge directly affecting the quality of care she provides to her patients.

Makayla is a published anatomist in the International Journal of Anatomical Variations after discovering a never-before-seen muscle attached at the pelvis in a human cadaver. She conducted lengthy research to present the muscle, further named Psoas Quartus to a committee of Anatomists at the IJAV conference to bring awareness to anatomical variations as a possible cause of pelvic pain.

When Makayla is not in the clinic treating patients, she enjoys spending time with her husband, Eddie and son, Zeke. Additionally, Makayla enjoys creating new experiences by being outdoors, attending sporting events, and exploring family venues in the Atlanta area.

Dr. Makayla is amazing. She understands the emotional and physical challenges that new mothers face, and her treatment is extremely effective and compassionate. I always feel welcomed when I come in and better each time I leave. I've already recommended her to all my mom and pregnant friends!
