Today, we were honored to present our big check to the American Cancer Society! 💙

Over the past few months, our STAR clinics across Tennessee and Arkansas came together to raise money through creative fundraisers that brought our teams, patients, and communities together to support a great cause.

Together, we raised $29,859.32 to support the fight against cancer! These funds will support the American Cancer Society's mission to improve the lives of people with cancer and their families through advocacy, research, and patient support, ensuring everyone has an opportunity to prevent, detect, treat, and survive cancer.

Thank you to our STAR teams for putting their hearts into this effort and to everyone who donated, participated, and helped us make a difference in the fight against cancer! 🎗️

Our Springfield clinic collected donations for the American Cancer Society with a fun team competition! 🎗️

Patients donated coins into water bottles, one for each team member. At the end, the team members with the most money in their bottles got a little... wet! 💦😂

Thank you to all our amazing patients and community members who donated, supported this effort, and helped us raise money for such a meaningful cause! 💙

What does it mean to practice what you preach? Sometimes, it means getting out of bed at 5 AM to train for a marathon. 🏃‍♂️

When Mark Mahan got his PT license and started working at our Clarksville North clinic, he told himself, “Life is never going to slow down from here, and I want to prove that I can still do hard things as a full-time physical therapist.”

So, he found a marathon and went for it.

After months of balancing work with early-morning training, Mark took on the 7 Bridges Marathon in Chattanooga this weekend and crossed the finish line. We’re proud of the dedication, discipline, and determination it took to get there!

At STAR, we believe in practicing what we preach and challenging ourselves to keep moving forward. Mark definitely put that into action. 💙

Congratulations, Mark! 👏

Friday Night Lights hit a little different when the temperatures cool down, the regular season winds down, and the playoff race heats up. 🔥

STAR is proud to provide athletic training coverage for Ezell-Harding Christian School. Emily Blomquist, our athletic trainer, is on the sidelines supporting the Eagles and caring for their athletes all season long. She teams up with Ken Burns, PA-C, at TOA to keep the team ready for game night. 💙

Here’s to a great night of football under the lights! 🏈🌙

It's Fix It Friday! 🛠️

Today we're talking about a movement many of us do every day: lifting.

Our Goodlettsville Clinic Director, Trevor Brandt, PT, DPT, breaks down a few common mistakes and shares simple tips to help you lift more safely and efficiently.

Small adjustments in how you lift can make a big difference in how much stress you place on your knees, hips, and back. 💪

What a way to finish the season! 🏐🏆

Goodpasture Christian School and Battle Ground Academy competed in the 2026 TSSAA Division II-A Girls Volleyball State Championship, with Goodpasture winning the state title. Congratulations to both teams on outstanding seasons! 👏

We’re proud to provide athletic training coverage for both schools, so our STAR team was on both sides of the court for the big match! 💙

Pictured from left to right are STAR Athletic Trainers Taylor Leidheisl (Goodpasture), Gary Beatty (Battle Ground), Lauren Baes (Battle Ground), and Michael Fitzgibbons (Goodpasture).

It was great to be back at Belmont University this afternoon! 💙

Kathy Vaughn and Matthew Ingram from our Marketing Team spent time with third-year Doctor of Physical Therapy students during their Management Course on Marketing Physical Therapy.

We enjoyed sharing real-world insights on developing marketing plans, budgeting, building awareness, and communicating the value of physical therapy.

We’re grateful for the opportunity to help prepare the next generation of clinicians and share more about the business and marketing side of the profession. Thank you to Belmont University School of Physical Therapy - DPT for having us back!

Jason Sanders spoke with exercise science students at Middle Tennessee State University (MTSU) this week, sharing his experiences as an athletic trainer at Coffee County Central High School and his journey through physical therapy school at South College.

Jason is an MTSU Athletic Training alum and now works at our Manchester Clinic. After the discussion, the students got hands-on as Jason demonstrated several athletic taping techniques.

We are always excited to see our team give back to the programs that helped shape their careers and share what is possible in athletic training and physical therapy! 💙

PT MYTH vs. FACT! 👀

❌ MYTH: You only need physical therapy for recovery after surgery or for serious injuries.

✅ FACT: Physical therapists work with people with a wide range of musculoskeletal conditions and goals, from managing pain and increasing mobility to building strength, improving balance, enhancing quality of life, and maintaining independence. 💪

Pain does not always mean surgery. 💙

Movement matters at every age! 💙

Physical therapy is about more than recovering from an injury. It’s about building strength, improving balance, maintaining mobility, and helping you stay independent!

Whether it’s walking with confidence, keeping up with family, or simply making everyday activities easier, PT can improve your quality of life!

Because better movement means more confidence to keep doing what you love! ⭐️

Our staff members are always willing to go the extra mile for their patients and community... and apparently, for fundraising goals too! Last month, we raised over $1,100 for the American Cancer Society! This means our director, Tom Mork, now has purple frosted tips, courtesy of Danny ( on Instagram), and is rehearsing to perform the *NSYNC "Bye Bye Bye" dance for social media.

Thank you to everyone who donated and helped make this fundraiser a success!! We love Tom’s new look and are all anticipating his debut NSYNC dance video! 😄

Our Franklin Clinic reached its $500 fundraising goal, which meant our Franklin Clinic Director, Tom Mork, had to follow through on his promise to bleach his hair and get purple frosted tips! 💜😂
