Shannon Braun

PT, DPT, SMFA, Certified Functional Dry Needling L1, PN Level 1 Nutrition Certified Coach

I graduated from the University of Kansas Medical Center in 2021 with a Doctorate in Physical Therapy. Over the past few years, I have developed an interest in nutrition and treating the body more holistically. In my own search for reliable nutrition information, I realized there is a lot of conflicting advice out there about healthy eating. It felt impossible to know which sources I could trust. My goal is to empower clients with trustworthy and evidence-based nutrition guidance. I completed the Precision Nutrition Level 1 Nutrition Coach certification in 2023. I am passionate about collaborating with clients to build healthy habits for a balanced life, fostering a positive relationship with food and their bodies – all without feeling restricted.

PT, DPT, OCS, SFMA, CF-L1, Certified Sportsmetrics, Certified Functional Dry Needling L2, PN1-NC

I graduated from Rockhurst University in 2010 with a Doctorate in Physical Therapy. My interests have gravitated toward exercise performance, wellness and general health over my career. I began getting more interested in detailed nutritional philosophies and practices for personal reasons initially; wanting to see if I could generally feel better, have more energy, recover from workouts and improve performance through changes in diet. I completed my certification from Precision Nutrition to become a PN Level 1 Nutrition Certified Coach in 2021. I enjoy working with clients to make changes in their nutrition that fits their lifestyle and helps them achieve their goals. I believe that understanding why you are eating a certain way is important to true lasting change, that is sustainable over time.
