Staff

Dr. Ruth Christiansen, PT, DPT, is a native of northeast Tennessee but spent her later childhood years in Zimbabwe where her parents serve at a mission hospital.

Ruth received her undergraduate degree in Allied Health from Cedarville University in 2012, and then completed her Doctorate of Physical Therapy in 2015 at Rosalind Franklin University of Medicine and Science in Chicago IL. She has spent the past 2 years in the Chicagoland area at an outpatient clinic treating various orthopedic and neurological conditions.

I went to Saylor PT with bad lower back pain shooting into my leg and foot with numbness. Dr. K got me back to feeling great after a couple months! I highly recommend their practice. I have been to other PTs in the past which were nothing like this. I love that they spend a full hour with you one on one. No waiting. She did hands on work along with exercises to help heal my lumbar issues. I was amazed by the results!
