Rebecca is a Doctor of Physical Therapy with a decade of experience across private practice and hospital settings.

Raised in South Florida by a medical family, Rebecca developed her passion for sports and medicine early. She played multiple sports growing up, notably water polo, and graduated Cum Laude with a bachelor's in exercise physiology from the University of Florida in 2007. She earned her Doctor of Physical Therapy degree from Boston University in 2010, graduating with honors.

Rebecca's clinical experience spans sports medicine, orthopedics, chronic pain, pelvic health, and post-operative care. At Core Values, she brings that full range to bear on helping active adults return to the lives and activities they love.

After 10 years of pain from SI Dysfunction, Rebecca quickly knew how I could finally address flare-ups and minimize their impact on daily life. Huge relief! Convenient scheduling, very responsive, and supportive and caring.

Highly recommend them for their approach and treatment. As a runner with a QL tear this was not an easy or quick fix but the mix of treatments applied, including dry needling, helped tremendously to get me back to running as well as daily tasks.

I had a great experience with Dr Austin. I came in with multiple issues and I think he did a great job balancing between my back, knee and elbow. Each session felt tailored and it was amazing getting to see my progress in our last session. He also helped me not to fear being consistent in my weight training and I am forever grateful! I would definitely recommend Dr Austin and the entire core values team as they always make you feel welcomed!

I came in a little skeptical because I had been to physical therapy for the same condition previously and nothing changed at a different place. However, here I was matched with Austin, who is extremely knowledgeable and knows what he’s doing. I am so glad I started at Core, which opened up new ways and in innovative ways to Rehab and strengthen my knee areas for running. I highly recommend them.

I came in barely functional, and Megan and the team completely turned things around for me. I’m back to being active again, and I had such good results that I recommended to both of my kids, who also had success here. The staff is knowledgeable, professional, and truly cares. You have to try the dry needling! Highly recommend!

I’m a physical therapist and traveled to this clinic for a continuing education course. Having experience in many different PT settings, I can say this place is extremely well equipped for active rehab. Not to mention the owner I was able to speak with is very clearly dedicated to clinical excellence. Would recommend this location for anyone in the Orlando area!! 5/5

I’ve had a great experience here! I’ve struggled on and off with runner’s knee for years. I’ve been working with Dr. Austin for several months and my knee has improved significantly. I’m now able to run pain free and even race again for the first time since 2018. 10/10 recommend!

I've been to several physical therapists and can confidently say Core Values PT has been my best and most impactful place so far! Dr. Megan and Dr. Austin have helped me regain confidence in my legs and I already feel like a stronger runner after just a couple of months working with them. I recommend them to all of my running friends, or just people who need help bouncing back and recovering from injuries!

Amazing team. Rebecca, Megan, & Austen amazing. Feel so much better after only a few weeks of work. Love the individualized care & being heard as a person. This is the second time I turned to Core Values PT for care. Each time everyone has treated me like I was their most valued patient. I would not choose to go anywhere else.

Best place to go to if you have training/run specific injuries. All the doctors are athletes and have your best interest in mind when it comes to getting you back to your desired sport fast and injury free. Thanks so much Dr. Austin and team!

Highly recommend! Different than so many PT’s and foot doctors I tried before. I came in for severe tendinitis in my left ankle that I had been suffering with for almost 2 years without being able to improve, and they healed me! The doctor is with you the entire time for every session. And they send you full videos of every single exercise to do at home. They are also so easy to communicate with for any question. Very grateful to them!

We're from NJ and needed to see a PT for my son's case of Little League's elbow while out in Florida. We chose Core Values b/c of many positive reviews. I'm so glad we did! Rebecca and staff are awesome and they really know how to challenge my son to make sure he's on the path to recovery. Definitely give them a call!

I've seen Dr. Rebecca, Dr. Megan, and Dr Sierra and all are fabulous. I came to Core Values in extreme pain and a basically numb right hand. They balanced pain management for races I had on the books with helping me improve. I'm now pain free in my shoulder and can feel my hand again! Definitely recommend!

I am a hard client and they haven’t treated me as such. It’s such a family atmosphere. Nyssa who works the front desk is such a sweetie, very attentive too. Megan is my PT and she is just so informative and does everything in her will to make sure I’ve felt better. Rebecca the head lady 💪🏼 has also taken the time to work with me on what does and doesn’t work. You’re able to be open and feel comfortable communicating with them. Would recommend 🤍

I had a great experience at Core Values and highly recommend them to anyone looking for physical therapy. The 1-on-1 approach was incredibly beneficial and made a huge difference in my recovery. It was a pleasure working with Dr. Meg; she is super knowledgeable and did a great job addressing the root cause of my shoulder pain. Thanks to her help, I’m feeling better than I have in years!

Great experience with this small, locally owned PT company. They performed a thorough assessment, clearly identified areas to address, and created a personalized, effective treatment plan. Everything was explained well, and their encouragement kept me focused and progressing toward my goals. They were also warm and welcoming, which made a big difference. Highly recommend!

I highly recommend Megan and Rebecca for physical therapy. As an aerialist and triathlete, I have had several issues with my hamstrings, lower back, forearms, and feet and the dry needling services I have received and exercises I complete at home have really helped me to continue with my fitness hobbies. Please do not hesitate and book your appointment at Core Values Physical Therapy to continue with your daily training.

6 mos post acdf and was so stiff and sore. Tried out patient hospital based PT twice and felt worse-minimal exam, too many patients etc. Massage therapist recommended Core Values. Mario is amazing as is the practice! Full exam and detailed home instructions each visit. Single patient, full hour visits and they are trained in many different therapies and very knowledgeable. Mario has me feeling great again!

Core Values Physical Therapy is absolutely the best for runners or anyone looking to help work through and injury, recover or even prevent injuries. I went to get a full body analysis today and was given excellent feedback, along with exercises I can do to stay healthy. She also did soft tissue work and cupping on my quads, as well as a running form analysis. I am a running coach myself and I send all my athletes to Core Values! Check them out!

I love core values!! I have been working with them for almost 2 years. I started with a hip flexor problem and recovered and have stayed on another year working with Megan to help improve my running. Megan is great! I love her personality and her focus on what the issue is and how to fix it. The whole staff is super friendly, and I love the time I get to spend here.

Frequently Asked Questions

Have questions about our Orlando clinic? Here are the most common ones we hear.

Do I need a doctor's referral to be seen at the Orlando location?

What services are available at the Orlando location?

Our Orlando clinic offers sports physical therapy, running physical therapy, manual therapy, pelvic health physical therapy, and vestibular PT. Orlando is the only Core Values location where vestibular PT is currently available.

Is Core Values PT a cash-based practice?

Yes, we are cash-based, which means we do not bill insurance directly. We accept HSA and FSA and provide superbills for patients who want to seek out-of-network reimbursement from their insurer. Many patients find the value of one-on-one, 55-minute sessions outweighs the cost compared to traditional PT.

What can I expect at my first visit?

Your first visit is a 55-minute, one-on-one evaluation with your physical therapist. We dig into your history, assess your movement patterns and load tolerance, identify the root cause of what is holding you back, and start building a plan tailored to your sport and goals.
