ABOUT
Kayla R Mowdy, PT, DPT, OCS
Doctor of Physical Therapy
Board Certified Orthopaedic Physical Therapist
I am a learner, a helper, and an analyzer. Types 1, 3, and 5 if you are into the Enneagram stuff. I have always looked for my next challenge in life and my career. My adult life has been marked by milestones of becoming a PT first, then a wife, then a mom, and now a business owner.
I built Future Physical Therapy to increase the availability of Pelvic Health services into an area that is not only lacking in availability of these services, but also has little knowledge of what exactly a Pelvic Floor PT does for our patients.
Kimberly Molaison, PT, DPT
Doctor of Physical Therapy
I completed my clinical experience while in school here at Future Physical Therapy. My interest in the pelvic health physical therapy community quickly grew to passion during my time at the clinic. I graduated from the University of South Alabama Doctor of Physical Therapy program in May 2022, and confidently decided I would specialize in pelvic health physical therapy. I live in Pensacola, Florida with my husband, Brandon, and our two cats, Rajah and Bean. We love days spent in downtown Pensacola, exploring a state park, or laying on the beach.
Anna F. Barnes, PT, DPT
Doctor of Physical Therapy
I am originally from Brandon, Mississippi, but recently moved to Baldwin County with my family -- my husband (Logan), who is an Alabama native, our son (Nolan), and our big fur-baby (Scout). We love traveling and being outdoors, going camping in our RV, and just spending time together as a family.
I fell in love with physical therapy while I was a student at Ole Miss. I received my DPT from University of Mississippi Medical Center in 2017. Work-life balance has always been a big priority for me, so I have spent a lot of my career in a part-time or PRN setting. This has allowed me to work in many PT settings since graduating, including everything from hospital-based acute care to privately-owned outpatient clinics. I've also been able to work with so many different types of patients and diagnoses, everything from spine specialty, orthopedics (pre- and post-surgical), geriatrics, sports, aquatics, and vocational rehab. I'm so excited to now add Pelvic Health to that list! I'm a big believer in helping my patients heal and grow through education and using the bodies that God has equipped us with to help them achieve that.
Krysta Wright, PTA
Physical Therapist Assistant
I am from Daphne, AL. I have two sisters and two Bluetick hounds. My hobbies are working out and roller skating. I would love to be able to travel the world sometime down the line. I am very family oriented and love spending time at the beach or pool.
I received my Physical Therapist Assistant degree at Bishop State community college where I met the best people and had the most life changing experience. I always knew I wanted to do something to help people and make an positive impact on people I work with just as much as the people I encounter impact me.
Lisa DeChance, PTA
Physical Therapist Assistant
Bio:
I am originally from Meridian, Mississippi, but moved to lower AL because my husband is from Daphne, AL. We have two dogs, Summer and Benji, as well as a cat named Hazel. We love to travel and check out new restaurants, especially Asian cuisine. I would say I am old at heart because I like going to bed early and love participating in board game nights.
I received my Physical Therapist Assistant degree at Meridian Community College and graduated with the best classmates.
Physical therapy was not something I knew I wanted to do until I began learning about it.
I love how there are various settings to fit everyone and how someone’s life will be impacted no matter which setting you choose.
Alexis Wilson, Office Coordinator
I am a born and raised Foley local who enjoys going to the beach and taking my dog on rides. One of my biggest hobbies is my fitness and health. Growing up I was always the overweight kid who didn’t like to run, until one day I knew something had to give. The best thing I could’ve done for myself was start working out. It’s not just physical, it’s mental too. You learn to push your limits and build mental strength. The things you accomplish are tools that you can use in your everyday life.
I also grew up around old hot rod cars and big lifted trucks. One thing I like to do is go to car shows and look at all the different builds people have and hear how it all started.
I’m a simple, easy going person. As an Office Coordinator at Future Physical Therapy I strive to make each and every patient feel welcome and comfortable when they walk through the doors. I want to be a friendly face that you look forward to seeing.
So “What is Pelvic Health Physical Therapy?”
It is a specialty area in the PT profession where we use our knowledge of the musculoskeletal system to help patients who have abnormalities in the areas of bowel, bladder, sexual, or pelvic floor muscular function. This could be as simple as taking a different approach to chronic low back pain or as complicated as helping someone recover from extensive abdominal or pelvic surgeries, sexual or childbirth trauma, or years of unexplained pain or difficulty with intercourse.
My favorite patient is the new mom. There are just so many things we can work on in that first 2-4 months after giving birth that may be able to prevent years of dysfunction, pain, or difficulty with being active. We can also address all the aches and pains that come up as your body heals and learns it’s new role as a mom (or a mom of 2, 3, 4+ kiddos). Literally wherever you are in this journey, there is probably something we can “work” on together at PT whenever you are ready.
Come see what it is all about!

My pregnancy was much more manageable and comfortable with PT exercises and massage. I continue to experience relief from my symptoms when I perform my prescribed stretches on a regular basis

”

“
After years of incontinence and overactive bladder, I was pleased to meet the therapist that could help me….I tried about 5 anticholinergic drugs, none seemed to work….After being taught some exercises I no longer travel with extra clothes!...I can go to lunch with friends. I don’t worry about urine running down my legs.
”
— Former patient, Retired Nurse
“
I had had two previous surgeries on my lower back and was headed for a third. My doctor was prepared to send me to pain management, which would have meant staying in pain but getting by with pills and procedures for possibly the rest of my life. After completing physical therapy, my pain has completely resolved….Physical therapy saved me from a lifetime of pain, the potential for multiple surgeries down the road, and living my life on pain medication.”
— Former patient, Lawyer
