Meet Andrina Ramsey!
The PT Aide Behind Our New Personal Training Program
Andrina loves the work she does with the team at Focus, but for her, it’s all about the patients. “I get a tremendous amount of satisfaction when my patients tell me, ‘Look what I can do now!’ when they’re able to do what they love again, free of pain.” This month, Andrina is most excited about spearheading our new personal training program ! Now, in addition to her duties as a PT aide, she’ll be helping clients and previous patients achieve new levels of fitness and functional mobility after they exit physical therapy. “I’m certainly thrilled at the prospect of seeing some of my favorite patients again,” she says. “But really, I love using my brain to figure out the puzzle of each person’s particular needs, to determine what types of exercises will benefit them most while still keeping it enjoyable and fun.” When she’s not at the clinic, you can usually find Andrina traveling around the world, exploring nature, reading, or visiting eclectic museums. She’s an incredibly friendly, compassionate person with a wide range of interests and talents, and we’re excited to see how she applies her 20-plus years of personal training to our brand-new program!
Soon after Andrina Ramsey had her second child and made a pact with herself to finally get fit, she found herself obsessed with her new pursuit. “Whatever it was just clicked with me,” she says, “I got super hooked. I became a gym rat, an exercise maniac — it was a new thing in my life.” Almost immediately, she began to realize the amazing benefits of health and exercise. As she learned more, she developed a desire to share her knowledge and experience with others who, like her, had always wanted to get in shape but had previously struggled to do so. Within three years, she was working as a certified personal trainer in a local gym. After a few years as a traditional personal trainer, she wanted to do even more to help the people she served. “I started to develop more of an interest in the clinical side of things, helping people recover from injuries rather than just steering already-healthy clients toward their aesthetic goals.”
Andrina has now been a physical therapy aide coordinator at Focus Physical Therapy for over seven years and counting.
