Dr. Olivia Augustino

Dr. Olivia Augustino (formally Dr. Hicks) is the owner of Move Well Chiropractic & Rehab. She is originally from Kingston, NY and received her bachelors in exercise science from Hofstra University in Hempstead, NY. She has participated in sports her entire life but it was after graduation where her passion for exercise flourished.

She became a competitive powerlifter after undergrad and has even competed at the national level. She has also spent years as a personal trainer, powerlifting coach, and kickboxing instructor. She loved to help clients with modifications and giving realistic exercises to fit each person’s life and fitness level.

Her mother had taken Dr. Olivia to chiropractors, starting at a young age, but it wasn’t until she was a powerlifter that she started to love chiropractic. As a patient, she saw how chiropractic helped her body and performance with powerlifting, leading to a passion for chiropractic.

She graduated with honors from Palmer College of Chiropractic in Port Orange, FL in 2021. While at Palmer, she learned a wide variety of techniques such as Diversified, Thompson Drop, and Gonstead. In addition, she took extra courses in instrumented soft tissue technique (IASTTM), flexion-distraction and spinal rehabilitation. She loves to incorporate soft tissue work in conjunction with adjustments. Visit the Services page to read more about the treatments that she provides.

In her spare time, she loves to work out, craft, go to Disney, and spend time with her husband, Nick, and their fur babies (Sasha, Castor, Stark, and Terra).

Dr. Olivia believes that life is a sport (no matter your fitness level) and can’t wait to help you achieve your maximum potential!
