DR. COLTON SHIRLEY

DR. OF PHYSICAL THERAPY

Dr. Colton Shirley was born and raised in Birmingham, Alabama. Growing up a multisport athlete, he developed a passion for movement, performance, and recovery early on.

  • "Resilient Health will fix the cause, not just the symptoms.”

    — Jason Turan

  • "Everyone at Resilient Health is motivated and committed–both the staff and the patients. It is a fun, yet intense, place and not at all like the impersonal franchised physical therapy offices I’ve been to in the past."
