PHYSICAL THERAPIST
Dr. Phil Young DPT, CIDN
Husband. Father. Athlete. Therapist.
​
Long before I started Advantage Therapy, I was just another person frustrated by the cycle of chronic pain. I spent over a decade battling chronic back issues — trying everything; exercises, massages, and "adjustments"- getting nowhere, and wondering if I’d ever run, climb, or mountain bike without pain again.
I finally found a solution for my chronic pain... And that is what encouraged me to start Advantage Therapy. Now, I help others break free from chronic pain using the same comprehensive approach that worked for me.
​
With a B.S. in Human Movement from Utah State and a Doctorate in Physical Therapy from Rocky Mountain University, I’ve combined evidence-based training with lived experience to create something different — a model that’s not about billing codes or symptom-chasing, but actual healing.
​
I founded Advantage Therapy because I believe no one should feel stuck in pain or stuck in a broken system. My sessions are one-on-one, hands-on, and focused on quick results — but more importantly, they’re built on trust and real human connection.
​
I’m certified in Dry Needling, manual manipulation, and specialize in advanced manual therapy techniques that go far beyond the basics.
​
But at the heart of it all: I’m a dad, a husband, and someone who simply wants to help people move better, live fuller, and get back to doing the things they love.
Dr. Monique Lawson DPT, CIDN
Long before joining Advantage Therapy, I knew how meaningful it was to help people move with confidence and get back to the activities they love. As a Doctor of Physical Therapy, I’m passionate about helping patients find lasting relief from pain through individualized, hands-on care and evidence-based treatment.
I earned my Bachelor’s in Exercise Physiology from Valdosta State University and my Doctorate in Physical Therapy from the University of Miami. I have experience treating a variety of orthopedic conditions, including post-operative injuries, chronic pain, and movement-related dysfunction. My approach combines advanced manual therapy techniques, dry needling, and personalized exercise to address the underlying source of pain rather than simply treating symptoms.
At Advantage Therapy, I believe great physical therapy starts with listening, building trust, and understanding each patient’s unique goals. My goal is to help every patient feel heard, move better, and return to the activities that make life meaningful
