TAMIKA DUNGY, DPT, PT, PES

Physical Therapist and Performance Coach

After more than two decades of helping clients become stronger, healthier, and more confident through personal training, I saw a growing need for deeper support for those recovering from injury, managing chronic pain, or dealing with age-related mobility issues. Becoming a physical therapist has allowed me to combine my passion for witness with clinical expertise, so I can now offer both rehabilitation and performance training under one roof.



My background as a collegiate athlete in basketball and track fueled my interest in human performance and led me to a career in personal training and physical therapy. I am driven by my desire to truly understand the body and help others move better and have pursued advanced education in nutrition, corrective exercise (physical therapy), and sports-specific training. In addition to being a licensed physical therapist, I hold certifications including Corrective Exercise Specialist (CES), Performance Enhancement Specialist (PES), Group Fitness Training (GFT), Barbell Rehab Specialist and CrossFit Level 1.



Today, I work with individuals at every stage—from pre/post-surgical rehab to athletic performance and overall wellness. My approach is rooted in functional movement, injury prevention, and sustainable results. But over the years, a troubling pattern emerged: clients would excel in physical therapy only to struggle the moment they were on their own, unsure how to maintain their progress or where to turn next. Others would work hard in training but plateau because hidden factors—nutritional deficiencies, chronic stress, poor recovery—were sabotaging their efforts. I watched too many people waste precious time and energy bouncing between providers who didn't talk to each other: a physical therapist who didn't know about their training program, a trainer unaware of their injury history, a nutritionist working in the dark about their workout demands. Everyone meant well, but the system was broken.

That's why we're transitioning from a personal training studio to a fully integrated wellness center offering physical therapy, personal training, massage therapy, IV treatments, mental health support, nutritional coaching, and meal preparation under one roof. After two decades of watching clients struggle to coordinate fragmented care across multiple providers, I knew there had to be a better way. Your body doesn't operate in isolated parts—your recovery affects your training, your nutrition impacts your performance, your stress influences your pain, and your mental health shapes your physical health. True wellness requires a team that communicates, collaborates, and sees you as a complete person, not a collection of symptoms. That's what we're building here: seamless, comprehensive care that bridges the gap between where you are and where you want to be—without the runaround.
