Meet Our Team
Dr. Savannah Carlson (she/her)
Dr. Savannah’s passion for helping others started in her teens when she founded her high school’s chapter of Soroptimist International, an organization committed to the empowerment of women and girls. Since then, she has dedicated her life to uplifting groups that mainstream society tends to leave behind, including survivors of sexual assault, immigrants, and the LGBTQ community. She began her career in helping others first as a journalist and activist, which was followed up by a brief adventure as a middle school teacher. It was her passion for helping women and children that led her to pursue a career in physical therapy.
Dr. Savannah earned her doctorate in physical therapy at Washington University in St. Louis in 2021. From there, she went on to earn her Certificate of Advanced Practice in Pelvic Health from the American Physical Therapy Association. She is a certified perinatal fitness coach and registered yoga instructor. Last but definitely not least, she is a mother to a beautiful little girl.
