About Brian
I was born and raised in New Jersey, where I was a multi-sport athlete my entire life, including continuing my football career all the way through college at Salisbury University (Go Gulls!). I was lucky enough to avoid spending much time in athletic training rooms or physical therapy clinics, which is what lead me to strive to not only get patients/athletes healthy but keep them healthy once they return to what they love. Outside of work, you can find me rooting for the New York Giants and Yankees, working out, shooting way above par on the golf course, or hanging out around some sort of body of water with friends.
Personal Philosophy
Work hard, play hard. Physical therapy and rehabbing an injury will be tough and challenging, but that doesn’t mean we can’t have fun while we do it. My vision is to create an atmosphere that patients look forward to coming into to improve toward their goals.
Greatest Success
My greatest success is seeing my patients make strides toward their goals and gain confidence with everything they do. Possibly my most memorable success was when a former patient of mine had us print out his new NFL contract for him to sign in the clinic after coming back from an ACL injury.
“Brian is amazing at what he does. He has brought me so far along only after 8 weeks. He explains everything he is doing and helps you understand the process and why you’re doing it. I would recommend him for any of your physical therapy needs. He’s the BEST!!!!!”
I went to undergrad at Florida State University, graduating in 2019 with my Bachelors of Science with a major in Exercise Physiology. I then went to University of St. Augustine for my Physical therapy degree, graduating in December 2022. I did PT school rotations in Davie, FL, Nashville, TN, and Houston, TX.

Macayla was drawn to the health and wellness industry from her own experience with a physical therapist and trainer. She played four years of collegiate soccer at Alma College, where she earned her undergraduate degree. During this time, she experienced a few different ankle injuries that required rehab. Her trainer and her physical therapist at the time made such an impact on her soccer career and helped her get back to her active lifestyle. This experience inspired her to help others like they did for her.
PHYSICAL THERAPY PHILOSOPHY
Not only can physical therapy help you heal from an injury or surgery, but it can also give you tools and knowledge to prevent future injuries and to optimize long-term function and wellness.
WHAT TO EXPECT ABOUT WORKING WITH MACAYLA
I will take the time to listen to your story and make sure your treatment is individualized to your needs. You can also expect some fun and laughs along the way, and together we will celebrate each milestone you hit throughout the process!
HER GREATEST SUCCESS
I once had a patient that was trying to get back on the soccer field after an ACL reconstruction. He struggled a lot early on with his strength and motion. We both stayed positive and motivated throughout the process and worked extra hard each day, and he was able to turn a corner and eventually return to playing pain-free.
Born and raised in New England, I have been in Nashville for 7 years and worked for MPOWER in various locations and capacities since moving here from Boston. I love being outside, adventuring somewhere new and spending quality time together over a great meal. When I’m not at work, you can find me on a hike, skiing or near the water.
Personal Philosophy
My hope as a PT is to return you to the activities you love to do and educate you so well in the process that you never need to see us for the same thing again. Be ready to work hard but know that we are here to support you every step of the way.
Greatest Success
My greatest professional successes are twofold: the first is getting to work in my capacity as a Clinical Educator where I get to grow and teach throughout our company. The second is every time a patient is able to do something well that the first day of PT they told me they'd never be able to do again. That, and the excitement on their face as they return to what they love to do, is what makes it all worth it.

About Noelle
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.
Personal 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!
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.

“Participating and following a physical therapy plan of care is crucial in injury recovery and finding the right healthcare providers to help you reach your goals are just as important. Physical therapy is a skilled approach to injury rehabilitation and return to activity that is patient specific and goal oriented.”
What would you tell a new client/patient to expect about working with you?
“I am going to put my very best into your treatment, so I expect the same effort in return. Let's work together to reach your goals and have fun along the way!”

PHYSICAL THERAPY PHILOSOPHY
As a physical therapist I am able to combine hands on care with select exercises to help decrease pain and improve movement allowing a person to return to their desired activity or sport.

Hello, My name is Brett Koehn, physical therapist at David Price IMAC Regeneration Center in Brentwood, TN. I'm a native of Enid, Oklahoma where I grew up working in my family's auto parts store.
I attending University of Tulsa to earn my degree in Exercise and Sport Science. At Tulsa, I ran track and cross country. Some of my Cross Country and Track teammates were from Australia and New Zealand and suggested I attend graduate school overseas.
Knowing I didn't want to pursue a career in the auto parts business, I took a long 16-hour plane ride to Australia and lived there for 3 years while attending the University of Queensland. While I'm happy to be back in the USA, I do miss the beaches, the coffee, and of course seeing koalas and kangaroos.
Most people don't realize it, but a lot of manual therapy techniques originated in Australia. When I found out that manual therapy was the focus at Advantage Therapy - now Ozzie Smith Center, I knew right away this would be a good fit!
JI am a Chicago-area native and stayed in the Midwest to obtain my undergrad degree in Science-Business from the University of Notre Dame. I spent some time working as a physical therapy tech prior to moving to Nashville where I obtained my Doctorate in Physical Therapy at Belmont University. I graduated from Belmont in 2021 and began my career as a staff therapist in outpatient orthopedics at Benchmark Physical Therapy. During my time at Benchmark I participated in their Orthopedic Residency program and recently sat for the Orthopedic Clinical Specialist exam.
Why were you drawn to the health and wellness industry?
I have always enjoyed an active lifestyle and working out. While at Notre Dame I took anatomy during the second semester of my senior year and absolutely fell in love with the human body and how it works. Physical therapy seemed like the ideal career to work through the puzzles of the human body and also help others.
What are your expertise? (ex: certain sports, weight loss, etc.)
As a graduate of an orthopedic residency program, orthopedics truly is my area of expertise as I have spent the past year participating in advanced training in this area. My scholarly project for residency was centered specifically around evidence-based injury prevention of youth ice hockey players.
How would you describe the importance & benefits of the care/service you provide?
The goal of what I do as a physical therapist is to help people remain active at all different types of levels. Keeping people moving is ultimately how we are able to go about living our lives. Decreasing pain and improving activity in patients allows them to enjoy simple daily tasks or more rigorous activities. This impacts a patient’s physical well-being but also emotional and social well-being as well since pain-free movement is a crucial part of life.
What would you tell a new client/patient to expect about working with you?
YI am always excited to work with patients who are motivated to return to what they love doing. I will give 100% to my patients but expect that they give me 100% in return so that we are both fully invested in their treatment plan and can have the best result possible. I like to have fun and be creative to make sure we achieve a patient’s individual, personal, and meaningful goals.
Without naming names, tell us about a client success that makes you proud:
I met a patient for initial evaluation who was a young woman, mother, and full-time worker dealing with back pain that limited her ability to get through the day without pain which had persisted for years on end. She was upset and resistant to start PT because her doctor did not order an MRI and she did not know what was wrong with her. By the end of my hour with her, she was much more positive about how therapy can help, even without undergoing an MRI. After a few weeks of work, she was able to go through an entire day without back pain and resumed a normal work out routine. It felt great to help a “non-believer” experience and understand the benefits of physical therapy!
If you have one, what is your favorite motivational quote/mantra:
Today it hurts, tomorrow it works.
What is your Personal Training Philosophy?
Physical therapy is hard work, but it is worth it!
Is there anything else you’d like to share about yourself? Accomplishments, interests, fun facts, etc?
With my free time I enjoy Broadway musicals, ice hockey, Baby Yoda, and obsessing over other people’s dogs especially French bulldogs and pugs. I am looking forward to learning more about working with post-operative patients and higher-level athletes during my time at MPower!
