Lindsey Wright, PT, DPT
Lindsey joined the Empower Physical Therapy team in 2023. She was born and raised in Anchorage, Alaska. Growing up in Alaska she developed a passion and appreciation for the outdoors. Enjoying hiking, fishing and exploring all the state has to offer in the summer, and playing competitive hockey in the winter.
She completed her undergraduate studies in Exercise Physiology from the College of St. Scholastica in Duluth, Minnesota while playing for the women’s hockey team and served as team captain for two seasons. She attended the College of St. Scholastica for her Doctorate of Physical Therapy degree as well, graduating in May of 2023. During her time in school, she was able to complete two orthopedic clinical rotations in Anchorage and Palmer.
Lindsey is excited to be back home and helping fellow Alaskan’s reach their goals. With over 15 years of competitive hockey experience, she understands the rigors of athletics and how important returning to sport at your highest level of performance is. She believes this applies to patients of all ages, regardless of their hobbies. She plans on pursuing continuing education and certification in manual therapy techniques such as Trigger Point Dry Needling and advancing her treatment knowledge through courses such as Clinical Management of the Fitness Athlete.
During her free time, Lindsey enjoys fishing, hiking, skiing, playing hockey and spending time with her husband Tyler and their dog Fisher. She is currently pursuing her private pilot’s license as flying has been a constant passion in her life. She is excited to be a part of the Empower team and is looking forward to returning people to what they love!
