Growing up in Redding, Donna was anxious to return to her northern California roots from Texas Woman’s University. In January and February of 2002, she completed an internship at the PTWC and joined the team later that year in July. While working full time, her interest in orthopedic spine care led her back to distance studies at the University of St. Augustine in Florida to get her Manual Therapy Certification and her doctoral degree, which she completed in December 2006. Besides her work, Donna enjoys traveling, biking, and dancing.

Besides his degree, Jeff went on to earn an Athletic Training Certification and Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist. His duties outside the clinic include athletic training at Red Bluff High School events and being part of the Justin Sportsmedicine Team. Olympic weightlifting, power lifting, and strongman competitions keep him busy on his personal time.

With that training, Lonnie received an internship with the San Diego Chargers and after graduation became their Assistant Athletic Trainer.

In 2002, he completed the circle back to Red Bluff taking a job at the Physical Therapy and Wellness Center and teaching an ROP class similar to the one that led him to the Wellness Center in the first place.
