Brittany Young, PT, DPT, OCS
Clinic Director
Brittany completed her Doctorate of Physical Therapy at Upstate Medical University in Syracuse, NY in 2017. Previously, she completed her Bachelors of Science in Biology from State University of New York at Geneseo, where she also participated in collegiate women’s soccer.
Brittany has advanced training as a Board Certified Orthopedic Clinical Specialist, a title held by less than 5% of therapists. She also completed an Orthopedic Residency and had the privilege of training under multiple Fellows who have helped to shape her practice into a balance of using best available evidence and patient values. She practices with a modern approach to treatment, focusing on the body as a whole unit in order to help patients meet their individual goals quickly. Brittany utilizes up-to-date manual therapy techniques such as functional dry needling, joint mobilizations/manipulations, and soft tissue massage alongside corrective exercises to assist in restoring functional movement patterns. She is an avid researcher and loves to stay current on the most recent PT literature to assist in helping patients get better faster.
Brittany also has advanced training on persistent pain, and has incorporated education on sleep hygiene, physical activity, nutrition, and stress management techniques. She experiences great enjoyment in working with patients of all ages, from high school athletes to older adults who have difficulty with balance and mobility. She is particularly passionate about educating patients on techniques that can help patients beyond their current injury or ailment and prevent future flare ups or recurring injuries from returning.
Outside of the clinic, Brittany enjoys being outdoors, which can include golfing, cycling, or playing any group sport like spikeball. Equally enjoyable to Brittany, she can also be found lounging around and relaxing. Brittany loves food and is often talking about new places to try some good eats!
