About Dickson Physical Therapy

Dr. Tanya Dickson has been a licensed physical therapist in Maryland since 2011. She is a board-certified specialist in Orthopedics through the American Physical Therapy Association and a Fellow of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Manual Physical Therapists, one of very few on the Eastern Shore of Maryland.

Her focus is orthopedic conditions including spinal pain, TMJ disorders, myofascial pain syndromes, vertigo, incontinence, EDS/POTS, concussion, headache, and chronic pain. Her specialized services include manual and manipulative therapy, dry needling, vertigo correction, pelvic floor rehabilitation, strength and conditioning, and lifestyle/functional medicine.

A graduate of the University of Maryland Eastern Shore and Salisbury University, Dr. Dickson is active in her community, serving the City of Salisbury on the Disabilities Advisory Committee and sitting on the Board of Directors of the Deaf Independent Living Association.

Tim Dickson is a disabled veteran and a proud alumnus of Salisbury University and Wor-Wic Community College. He is also an educator with the Wicomico County Board of Education.

Dr. Lindsay Duryea brings over 12 years of experience and a passion for helping patients recover and thrive. A proud graduate of the University of Maryland Eastern Shore, she specializes in orthopedics, sports, and neurological rehabilitation, and offers advanced expertise in pregnancy and postpartum corrective exercise.

Briana joins our team with over 10 years of practice in the orthopedic setting, having graduated from the DPT program of UMES in 2015. She has great interest in the Science of Pain, leading her to undergo a Therapeutic Pain Specialization (TPS) certification in 2019, that encompassed a deep dive into the etiology, complicating factors, and treatment of persistent pain. Briana has experience treating a wide variety of orthopedic, vestibular, and neurodynamic conditions, as well as advanced knowledge of Olympic lifting and movements needed in the CrossFit and higher level fitness spaces.

Outside of the clinic, Briana is a wife and a mother, trying to keep up with a son born in 2023, and a daughter born in 2025. She enjoys being outside with her kids, moving a barbell, reading, crocheting, and is a big fan of a quiet Saturday.

Dr. Anthony Jones is a recent graduate of the illustrious University of Maryland Eastern Shore DPT program. He strives for patient-centered care dedicated to helping individuals return to the activities that matter most to them. His clinical interests include orthopedic manual therapy, geriatrics, fall prevention, and improving quality of life for older adults.

Dr. Jones believes that effective physical therapy begins by listening. Whether a patient’s goal is to walk with less pain, return to the gym, recover after surgery, prevent falls, get back to sports, or comfortably manage daily responsibilities, he develops individualized, evidence-based plans that progress safely and purposefully. His approach combines clinical reasoning, progressive exercise, education, and self management strategies to help patients build confidence that lasts beyond the clinic.

Committed to serving underrepresented communities, Dr. Jones values creating a welcoming, respectful, and culturally responsive environment where every patient feels heard, supported, and empowered throughout their recovery.

With 7 years of experience, Lauren Glasgow, PTA, is dedicated to providing compassionate, patient-centered care tailored to each individual’s goals and needs. Her clinical experience includes manual therapy, orthopedic rehabilitation, balance rehabilitation, chronic pain management, and mobility training. Lauren strives to create a supportive environment where patients feel heard, empowered, and confident as they work toward greater strength, independence, and quality of life.

As a Physical Therapist Assistant, my approach to rehabilitation focuses on identifying and addressing the underlying movement dysfunctions that can contribute to pain, weakness, instability, and limitations in everyday function. I have a particular interest in spinal and pelvic dysfunction, using muscle energy techniques and other hands-on strategies to improve mobility, restore more efficient alignment, and help normalize movement.

A major component of my treatment philosophy is neuromuscular re-education. Rather than focusing only on where a patient hurts, I work to improve how the body moves as an integrated system. This includes restoring proper core stabilization, improving coordination between the trunk and extremities, and retraining the nervous system to recognize and reinforce more efficient movement patterns.

Patient education is central to everything I do. I believe patients achieve better long-term outcomes when they understand why a dysfunction is occurring, how their movement habits may be contributing to it, and what they can do to take an active role in their recovery. Treatment therefore includes extensive education regarding posture, body mechanics, joint positioning, lifting strategies, exercise technique, and the biomechanics of everyday activities.

My goal is to move patients beyond temporary symptom relief and toward lasting functional improvement. Treatment progresses from restoring mobility and proper neuromuscular control to strengthening and reinforcing those improvements through functional movement. Exercises are selected and progressed to help the body maintain better mechanics during walking, lifting, reaching, working, exercising, and other activities of daily living.

By combining manual techniques, muscle energy techniques, neuromuscular re-education, core stabilization, corrective exercise, and detailed patient education, I strive to help each patient develop the mobility, stability, strength, and movement awareness needed to function more efficiently and confidently in everyday life.

Born and raised on the Eastern Shore, I’ve been a mud and monster truck driver for the past 5 years. My journey with DPT began as a patient, and I enjoyed my experience so much that I eventually became part of the team! I’m now an Exercise Tech and Front Office Coordinator for Suite 201. I’m passionate about helping others through their physical therapy journey, and I hope to one day become a physical therapist myself.
