Hayley Byers

Hayley earned both her Doctorate of Physical Therapy and Bachelor’s in Health Science from Springfield College, where she was also a member of the women’s lacrosse team. Her background as a collegiate athlete helped shape her passion for working with athletes of all levels, from youth to adult, and continues to influence her approach as a physical therapist.

Hayley provides patient-centered care with a strong emphasis on strength and conditioning principles, aiming not just to return patients to baseline but to help them exceed it. She has a particular interest in blending performance training with rehabilitation, ensuring her patients build the resilience and confidence needed to get back to the activities they love.

In addition to her clinical work, Hayley coaches both high school and youth lacrosse in Fairfield and New Haven County, where she enjoys mentoring the next generation of athletes. Outside of the clinic, she enjoys spending time at the beach, reading, and being with her family. She is also an avid gym-goer who currently trains and competes in Hyrox races.
