Nancy Bywater
PT, CMPT, OCS
I have been a PT for 25 years, which is amazing since I am 25 (at least in heart) The theme of my career has been a never ending passion for learning and improving my skills. The field of Physical Therapy has continued to expand as we gain more insight in how to effect changes in the body. My goal is always to find the most direct path to help your body heal and improve. Through years of practicing and seeking innovative, cutting edge continuing ed, I am always reminded how our minds and bodies are connected. My training includes NDT (neurodevelopmental technique) certification, CMPT (Certified Manual Physical Therapy), OCS (Orthopaedics Certified Specialist), Visceral Mobilization, Craniaosacral mobilization, ISM ( Integrated Systems Model), Pelvic floor dysfunction, and many more trainings. Personally, I am a jack of all trades-outdoor enthusiast, winemaker, gardener, athlete, mom, wife, fledgling musician. I fully understand both personally and professionally the desire to function optimally. It is my pleasure and honor to get to assist our residents in feeling better, both in body and spirit.

Will Young
MSPT
Since leaving the deep south 18 years ago to strike out as a physical therapist in the pacific northwest, Will has embraced the landscape, the people and the lifestyle of Washington. His interests in PT span the range of retraining movement patterns, reducing physical restrictions, and teaching people about their body’s “owner’s manual”. When he’s not helping his patients, or regaling them with talk of all things food-related, he can be found riding bikes or skiing with his family, dragging his camera into the hills, running aimlessly, or toiling on some unending yard project. He has undergone training several times each of the last 18 years in topics ranging from running analysis, soft-tissue releases, bike-fit certification, movement re-education, visceral mobilization, and function-specific joint mobilization. These are all aimed at learning to move well, enjoying daily activities without pain or disability, and getting back into the activies people love. Will is also a certified BIG and Loud trained therapist for treating Parkinsons.

Claudia Carani
Office Manager
Hi! I'm the front-desk person you will see on arrival here. I have been with Mt. Stuart since we opened in March of 2001. My coworkers refer to me as "the glue" of Mt. Stuart. Everyday brings something new and challenging to learn. The crew here are hard workers with great senses of humor. You will often hear laughter emanating from the treatment rooms, which helps keep me young! I have lived in Leavenworth since 1978 and have raised 3 girls with help from my dear husband Fred. I love this community, and am an active volunteer with Upper Valley M.E.N.D. Look for me on my beautiful black and pink cruiser bike, Betty
