Meet the Physio Sport & Spine Doctors of Physical Therapy

Dr. Jamie Childs Everett is a Doctor of Physical Therapy and the owner and operator of Physio Sport & Spine located at 3806 Dell Range Blvd Suite 11, Cheyenne, WY 82009.
Jamie has specialized in physiotherapy in the Cheyenne area for nearly 2 decades.  Dr. Everett is a Board-Certified Clinical Specialist in Orthopaedic Physical Therapy. She is also a Fellow of the American Academy of Orthopedic Manual Physical Therapy. Fellowship training provided her mentorship from the top physical therapists in the country prior to graduation. Less than 2% of physical therapists in the country and currently only four physical therapists in the state of Wyoming hold the distinction of Fellow. She co-authored a research study “Perceptions of the professional and personal impact of hybrid fellowship” that was published in the Journal of Manual and Manipulative Therapy with co-authors Kevin MacPherson, Mark Shepard, Adam Fritsch, Julie Whitman, and Kim Dunleavy. She currently sits as the Wyoming Physical Therapy Association’s president. She is actively working on making physical therapy accessible to every patient with legislative changes to the physical therapy practice act. On September 14th, 2019, Dr. Everett received the American Physical Therapy Association State Legislative Leadership Award, the annual association recognition of an individual member who has provided outstanding service and leadership on behalf of a component’s legislative efforts. She also is working on educating other healthcare providers and people of Wyoming that there are alternatives to pain management other than opioids, including the use of physical therapy to address pain. Listen to the recent podcast here to hear how Dr. Jamie Everett is working to help people with persistent pain. “I think the most learning comes from when you’re in the trenches, too. Having suffered from chronic neck pain and headaches I understand how chronic pain can affect your life from the time you wake up to the time you finally lie down. It’s also career-changing when you become the patient and how you can better yourself as a practitioner because you’ve had the experience of being on the other side, which I’ve recently experienced with a thumb injury and with a shoulder injury.” Dr. Everett was recently interviewed regarding Risk Management in the Physical Therapy clinic where she provided insight on how to protect both the patient and the practitioner in daily practice. In 2021, Jamie Childs Everett, PT, DPT traveled to Washington D.C to meet with Senators Barrasso and Lummis as well as Representative Cheney regarding patient access to physical therapy including reimbursement. Dr. Everett also received the “Women of Influence Health Care Award” presented by Tom Wolfe CEO Premier Bone & Joint Centers in 2021.“Dr. Everett holds a Doctorate, Board-Certification, and Fellowship in Physical Therapy. She was nationally recognized for legislation changes for patient access to physical therapy in Wyoming, currently serves as President for the Wyoming PT association, and recently pressed for legislation changes in Washington DC including changes to Medicare reimbursement.” She is a CrossFit Level 1 Trainer and also has certifications in specialized areas of physical therapy including functional dry needling, lymphedema management, instrumented soft tissue mobilization, ACL prevention programs including Sportsmetrics, FMS, and SFMA (functional movement screen) amongst other certifications. Her greatest enjoyment is when the patient she is working with finally realizes they are doing what they never thought they could do, including deadlifting a loaded barbell. Jamie played soccer for a division I NCAA school and continues to enjoy coaching at both the recreational and competitive levels. She enjoys time with her husband when they can get outdoors to snowboard or ski, mountain bike, ATV, hike, or even scuba dive (where it’s warm of course). “I can’t wait for what lies ahead! I have two of the greatest colleagues, Dr. Sarah Anderson, who has such exceptional enthusiasm for the profession, and Ciera Carter who is the most knowledgeable physical therapist assistant I have met. They both keep me wanting to learn. I frequently watch them working with patients and think ‘dang that’s a good idea’. “I  have the greatest job, I get to help people in their journey to getting back to life and have fun doing it.” Dr. Jamie Everett is currently accepting new patients at her medical office. She is available for physical therapy appointments for back pain, neck pain, post-surgical rehabilitation, injury rehabilitation and prevention, and sports performance including ACL-specific prevention training, dry needling, blood flow restriction training, lymphedema/ cancer rehabilitation, and non-pharmacological pain management.

During her studies at UW, she found her true passion for physical activity as a curative resource and gained a better understanding of how physical exercise was the best option as a non-pharmacological treatment for pain.   Sarah completed her Orthopedic Residency in 2021 which is a post-graduate program to help create more highly skilled, autonomous practitioners who have substantially increased their ability to provide care to patients with musculoskeletal conditions. Graduates of Residency also gain a strong knowledge base of evidence-based practice, orthopedic manual therapy techniques, advanced medical screening, and radiology. Dr. Anderson also completed her Dry Needling Certification 2022, and her Certification in Pelvic Health in 2022 which she continues to expand on for continued care specializing in Women’s Health. Her treatment for women’s health focuses on pelvic health conditions including female pelvic floor function and dysfunction, with individual treatment programs including internal examination for urinary incontinence and the musculoskeletal components of urogynecology pain syndromes such as chronic pelvic pain, vulvar pain, interstitial cystitis/painful bladder syndrome. Other specific considerations are treatment for prolapse and pelvic organ descent, various pelvic pain diagnoses, and abdominal wall rehabilitation. Although she has been devoted to her studies, she finds time to travel, relax in the mountains, and attend sporting events with her husband, Brandon and her family.  She is happy to be back in Cheyenne to spend time with her husband, daughter, dog, and family. Be on the lookout for Sarah and her family in Cheyenne as they truly enjoy trying out new restaurants in town and supporting the growing Cheyenne community.  You may even catch her at a couple of Post 6 games or running the Greenway (sometimes even with her dad!)
