Staff Spotlight: Meet Nicci Hayden! Born and raised in Queens, NY, Nicci’s world revolves around her close‑knit family; she’s got 2 kids, 2 grandkids, a loving husband, and a bonus daughter. Family is her foundation, and it shows in everything she does! Outside of work, Nicci’s passions include music, dancing, gardening, and crafting, especially making beautiful wreaths. Fun fact: Nicci appeared on Sesame Street as a little girl!

At work, Nicci is the definition of dedication. She keeps referrals and authorizations running smoothly and is always ready to lend a hand. As one coworker put it, “Nicci is truly the unsung hero of our department. Her commitment and quiet strength keep everything running, and we couldn’t do what we do without her.” We are so grateful for her!

Protect your back by lifting smarter
Whether you’re an athlete, a parent picking up your child, or lifting on the job — your spine deserves support.
Follow the 5 Ls of lifting to stay functional and pain-free:
📦 Load – Keep it close
⚖️ Lever – Stay centered
🌀 Lordosis – Maintain your natural curve
🦵 Legs – Let them do the work
🌬️ Lungs – Exhale during the lift

Small adjustments. Big impact.

Staff Spotlight: Tori Baker, MS, LAT, ATC

Born and raised in Connecticut near UCONN (Go Huskies!), Tori began her academic journey at Springfield College in Massachusetts before moving to Pennsylvania in 2022 to pursue graduate studies at West Chester University. Since joining our clinical team in July 2024, she has quickly become the heart and soul of our Parkesburg office. Whether she’s supporting patients, collaborating with colleagues, or bringing her signature positivity to the office, she consistently goes above and beyond. Outside of work, Tori stays active with workouts, enjoys baking (her treats are legendary!), and is an avid line dancer—always finding joy in movement and creativity.

Dr. Panzera says the following about Tori:
“Tori is an essential part of the Parkesburg office. Not only is she knowledgeable and personable, she’s also incredibly hard working. She brings an uplifting and positive attitude to everything she does. She’s a joy to be around! Also, she’s one of the best bakers I’ve ever met (no pun intended haha).”
