Sheana Rankin, DPT

Sheana is available for appointments at our Middle Village office and can be reached via email at Sheana@prometpt.com.

Sheana, a NY State licensed Physical Therapist and native of Georgetown, Guyana, earned her Bachelor of Science degree in Community Health Education from Hunter College in New York and her Doctoral degree in Physical Therapy from Long Island University-Brooklyn Campus. Sheana began her professional career treating patients with neuromuscular and musculoskeletal disorders in home care settings.

As part of a work-study program in her home country, Sheana was placed in the Physical Therapy department at a local hospital. At the time she was skeptical of Physical Therapy. However, as time went on and she was able to experience patients progress from being in wheelchairs to walking with canes to ambulating independently, she realized how much PT can help people and fell in love with the profession. During her clinical affiliations, Sheana had the opportunity to practice in acute care settings, orthopedic outpatient settings and in pediatric settings with disabled children. Sheana also has great interest in manual Physical Therapy interventions and has taken continuing education courses in Positional Release Techniques with Leon Chaitow as well as Vestibular Rehabilitation Therapy.

Sheana is looking forward to expanding on her expertise while practicing full-time here at ProMet Physical Therapy. She also has plans to become an Orthopedic Certified Specialist and, eventually, work treating athletes with local area and professional level sports teams.
