KAVIKA C.
“I’ve been receiving care from Dr. Laura Bracken at Renew Physical Therapy, and the experience has been exceptional! From the very first visit, she took the time to thoroughly assess my condition and pain points, and created a plan tailored to my needs. The level of care, attention to detail, and expertise is truly remarkable and I could confidently say I was in the right hands for positive results. I’ve seen significant improvements in my mobility and pain levels. Her professionalism added with her character and attitude, definitely made me grateful for her services and comfortable in my experience. Ask for Dr. Laura Bracken for anyone looking for top-notch physical therapy care!”
BETH W.
“I’ve been working with Gina for a year, and I have been beyond pleased with my experience and results! My aches and pains have varied from headaches from a rib torsion, tennis elbow, tight hip flexors and adductors from running and walking, and even a painful shoulder from errant weight training. While Gina is pleasant, friendly, and easy to be around, most importantly, she knows her craft! She zeros in on the origin of the pain and gets to work on helping me find relief. In my experience, there is no “if” she can help, but only “when”. Gina wants her patients to get better, and she has the tools to do so. Highly recommend!”
OLIVIA A.
“My physical therapist was Laura. I had an acute shoulder injury and needed help asap. She saw me next day and over a course of three appointments was able to get my mobility back and ease pain to where it was probably 80% better. I thought this was incredible as all injuries take time to heal but I needed to be able to lift heavy things for work and she was able to get me to a place I could do so without taking time off.”
RACHEL C.
“I’ve had low back pain and “flare-ups” for the past several years. I was living in pain and had tried almost everything, and then I found Dr. Gina. What a God-send! She has been a tremendous relief and very informative. Dr. Gina has magic hands and she knew exactly how to help.”
JED B.
“Dr. Laura Bracken is an awesome Physical Therapist that really listens to the needs of the patient (my son) and works through the issues methodically and successfully. She is professional, punctual, and easy to work with on scheduling. I highly recommend Dr. Laura and Renew Concierge Physical Therapy!”
RUTH C.
“Dr. Gina is an angel and saved my life. I was told by my primary care physician and those at the hospital here Destin that I could never walk again. I am now walking due to Dr. Gina’s care. They told me it was a waste of time to receive physical therapy at the hospital and from my PCP. I received such great care from Dr. Gina. I’m continuing to progress and it has been 171 days of progress because of my diagnosis of Guillain-Barre. I am now WALKING! I recommend her highly to anyone here within the Panhandle. She’s nothing more than professional, and an extraordinarily kind human being.”
JAY C.
“Dr. Gina is awesome. I’ve never been treated with dry needling, but my Ortho doctor prescribed and one of my tennis peeps referred me to her. Bonus alert: she comes to your home or office. In three treatments she had me back on the tennis courts. Highly recommend Dr. Gina!”
CHRISTINE C.
“I pulled something in my back this morning working out, Dr. Laura made an appointment with me right away and worked out all the kinks. Same day and I’m good as new! Cannot recommend her enough!!”
SUSAN W.
“I thought I had injured my knee using incorrect form exercising; turns out I needed stretching from sitting at computer all day. She worked out the muscles and showed me how to prevent future flare ups. I was so relieved! Dr. Gina is extremely knowledgeable! She was a pleasure to work with; I am SO happy I called!”

How We Can Help in Destin
We specialize in working with athletes, auto accident patients, and patients
with chronic pain or hard-to-diagnose conditions.
Joint & Orthopedic Treatment
Pick a joint: neck, back, shoulder, hip, knee, foot or ankle. We use manual therapy and other effective techniques to reduce pain and address the underlying syndrome or dysfunction causing you pain or mobility issues. Our individualized home programs also reduce your risk of re-injury.
Chronic Pain Treatment & Management
Patients who suffer from chronic pain often find little relief working with traditional medical doctors and physical therapists. If that’s been your experience, reach out to us! We specialize in helping patients like you.
Post-Operative Rehabilitation
There is no such thing as a successful surgery without successful therapy afterward. Patients often develop dysfunctional movement patterns, persistent weakness or stiffness after surgery without PT.
Manual Therapy
Manual therapy is one of the most effective treatments for a wide range of joint problems and musculoskeletal conditions. We specialize in providing manual physical therapy, including soft tissue mobilization, IASTM (similar to the Graston technique), spinal and joint mobilization, muscle energy techniques, and relaxation techniques to reduce pain and restore mobility.
Geriatric Strength & Balance Training
Injuries from a fall can prevent you from living independently as you age. We use an evidence-based approach to objectively measure your fall risk and create a personalized exercise program. We’ve helped many seniors improve their mobility and prevent falls. Our goal is to come alongside so you can live happily, healthily, and independently for as long as possible.
Spinal Mobilization
When you have back pain, visiting a chiropractor might be your first choice, but physical therapy may be a better option. Physical therapists are also trained in spinal mobilization. What sets us apart from chiropractors is that we take a more holistic approach to identifying and treating back pain. We have helped our patients find lasting freedom from chronic back pain.
Injury Prevention
Are you worried about developing runner’s knee or tearing your rotator cuff? Many injuries, like these, can be caused by muscle strength imbalances and improper movements. We can personally evaluate your movement patterns and develop individualized exercise programs for you to reduce your risk of injury.
Auto Accident Rehab
Are you suffering from whiplash or another auto-accident-related injury? If you are, we can help with NO out-of-pocket cost to you. Working with a doctor from ReNew, you can get the most out of your personal injury protection (PIP) funds, find relief from pain and recover two times faster than other forms of treatment available.
Vestibular Rehab & Balance Training
Injuries from a fall can prevent you from living independently as you age. We use an evidence-based approach to objectively measure your fall risk and create a personalized exercise program. We’ve helped many seniors improve their mobility and prevent falls. Our goal is to come alongside so you can live happily, healthily, and independently for as long as possible.
Sports Rehabilitation
After an injury, athletes want to return to their sport as fast as possible. We know that scholarships, jobs, and personal goals can get in the way of recovery. We are here to help you recover safely and get back to your peak performance. We use a variety of physical therapy tools, from recommended exercises to manual therapy, to reduce your pain, improve functionality, and help you heal.
Functional Athlete Assessment© and Programming
Are you a high-intensity functional training (HIFT) athlete who wants to maximize your potential without risking injury? We developed the Functional Athlete Assessment © for you. We use it to identify risky movements and create a guide to help you reach your fitness goals safely.
Movement Mechanics Education & Training
If you perform an exercise incorrectly, you can miss out on up to 25% of the benefits. We can help! Invite us to your home or the gym to evaluate you during your workout. Then, we’ll provide you with movement mechanics education and training to ensure you get the most out of exercising.
