Dr. Alyssa Williamson PT, DPT, ATC
Board Certified Sports Clinical Specialist
Dr. Alyssa Williamson is an Athletic Trainer and Doctor of Physical Therapy who specializes in orthopedic and sport-related injuries. After graduating from Boston University, she worked at several outpatient clinics and was the Head Athletic Trainer at Gloucester High School. In 2019 she completed her Board Certification as a Sports Clinical Specialist, becoming an expert in holistic athletic injury management, including prevention, acute care, treatment, rehabilitation, and education. Additionally, Alyssa earned her certifications in Strength and Conditioning, ImPACT Concussion Management and Red Cross Instruction.
In 2021 Alyssa left the traditional, high-volume clinic setting in hopes of providing an elevated level of care to her clients. She opened her first small cash-based practice, LYSS PT & Wellness, in Boxford, Ma where she treated a variety of common orthopedic conditions. Thanks to her amazing clients, her caseload grew rapidly and knowing she needed more space, Alyssa partnered with RECK Fitness in 2024 to open HYPE Sports Rehab in Danvers, MA. Although she has worked with clients of all ages, levels and varieties of sports, Alyssa most prefers working with athletes- specifically football players. In addition to being in the clinic, Alyssa is the Director of Sports Medicine for the 8x National Champion women’s tackle football team, The Boston Renegades. She works closely with the athletes and staff to ensure a successful and healthy season, providing a high level of care for the professional women athletes.
Alyssa is passionate about creating tailored plans for her clients, including injury prevention, rehabilitation and performance. Her treatments are always one-on-one and she enjoys using a variety of manual therapy techniques to relieve pain and restore mobility. No matter the cause or condition, Alyssa strives to help and empower her clients to achieve their goals, confidently participate in the activities they love and perform their best, every day.
As a former D1 athlete, Alyssa still enjoys playing sports like flag football and pickleball. Her other favorite activities are traveling and finding the next best restaurant - and she is always looking for recommendations for both!
