Michele Mannino PT, DPT
OWNER, PHYSICAL THERAPIST
Michele has known she wanted to be a physical therapist since she was 14 years old. After spending several months (ahem, years) in PT from various sports injuries, her interest was piqued. In 2008 she became a Certified Personal Trainer but quickly knew she wanted to learn more. She went back to school for Physical Therapy and received her doctorate degree from the University of Vermont in 2014. She has been practicing in outpatient orthopedics ever since. She loves working with active, motivated individuals who are eager to learn more about their bodies and how to heal them.
When not treating patients, you can find her mountain biking, running, snowboarding or spending time with her partner, Rob, and their dog, Walter.
