About Noelle Carriger
I grew up in the suburbs of Los Angeles and stayed in southern CA for my B.S. and DPT. Wanting to explore more of the US, I decided to become a travel Physical Therapist. One of my assignments brought me to TN and I loved it so much I decided to make that move permanent! After sustaining multiple knee injuries playing soccer, I knew I wanted to make the same difference in others’ lives as my PT had done for me. When I’m not at work, you can find me traveling the world, playing soccer, attending live music or sporting events, or hanging out by the water.
EDUCATION
PHYSICAL THERAPY PHILOSOPHY
I aim to educate my patients to understand the “why” behind what we do and to continually encourage them to accomplish things they did not believe were possible. There definitely will be sweat, smiles, and some fun involved!
HER GREATEST SUCCESS
One of my favorite memories was treating a young boy who had knee pain while in class and during PE. Initially, he and his parents were worried about his diagnosis and the possibility of flare ups as his older sister had gone through the same thing. As he started feeling better, he would always be disappointed when the session was over and was always excited to learn something new. By the time of his graduation, he was able to fully participate during PE pain-free! In addition, both patient and his parents felt confident in the exercises and knowledge they had learned during his rehab journey to be able to maintain the gains he had made and treat flare ups as they may arise in the future.
