Logan Simmons

Dr. Logan Simmons is a licensed physical therapist from Greenville, NC. Logan played club baseball as a team captain and pitcher at High Point University, earning an accolade as an NCBA All-American Pitcher during his time in his undergraduate studies for exercise science. While a team captain, Logan was also responsible for creating dynamic warm ups, strength and conditioning regimens, and throwing programming to reduce risk of injury and improve performance for his teammates. His previous experience as a student athlete enables him to better understand the demands and needs of student-athletes at various levels of competition. During this time, his pre-existing interest in physical therapy from witnessing the recovery of injured teammates throughout his athletic career continued to grow.

After Logan completed his Bachelor’s of Exercise Science and Master’s of Communication and Business Leadership at High Point University, he moved on to study for his Doctorate in Physical Therapy at East Carolina University. While completing his doctorate, Logan participated in East Carolina University’s pro-bono clinic, volunteered to assist in NHL Carolina Hurricanes’ movement screenings, and completed a capstone titled “The Relationship Between Sagittal Plane Trunk Motion and Lead Leg Braking and Vertical Ground Reaction Forces In Collegiate Pitchers” in collaboration with the biomechanics team at BYoung Physical Therapy, demonstrating his interest in active populations, biomechanics, and overhead athletes.

Logan was previously a pitching instructor and is trained in biomechanical analysis of overhead runners and throwers. He enjoys applying his skillset to best assist athletes and active individuals of various backgrounds to help them improve their function and performance, guide their return to sport, reduce their risk of injury, and enable others to return to performing the activities and hobbies they love.

Outside of the clinic, Logan can likely be found at the gym or pitching for the Raleigh Oaks in the summer!
