Our Team
Uriah Gracia-Salinas, PT DPT CSCS

Dr. Uriah Gracia-Salinas is the Co-Founder and Head Physical Therapist at Atlas Physical Therapy & Performance.
Raised in Cheyenne, Uriah earned his Bachelor’s degree in Kinesiology from the University of Wyoming before completing his Doctor of Physical Therapy degree at Touro University Nevada.
As a lifelong athlete, Uriah developed a strong interest in orthopedic rehabilitation, sports physical therapy, and sports performance throughout his education and clinical training. His clinical focus is helping active individuals and athletes recover from injury, restore strength and movement capacity, and return confidently to training and sport.
Uriah places a strong emphasis on integrating strength and conditioning principles into rehabilitation so patients not only recover from injury but return stronger and more resilient than before.
A key component of Uriah’s approach is the use of objective performance testing and data-driven rehabilitation. He utilizes advanced strength and force plate testing to evaluate movement capacity, identify performance deficits, track rehabilitation progress, and guide return-to-sport decision making. This allows rehabilitation programs to be individualized, measurable, and aligned with the demands of sport and training.
Uriah holds the Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist (CSCS) credential and is a Certified Clinical Athlete Provider. He is also certified in Emergency Responder for the Athlete (ERA), which focuses on the recognition and management of medical emergencies in athletic environments, such as concussion recognition, sudden cardiac arrest response, heat illness management, and other potentially life-threatening conditions that may occur during sport or physical activity.
Outside of the clinic, Uriah continues to live the active lifestyle he encourages in his patients. He enjoys lifting, running, and training Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, and is always looking for ways to continue learning and improving within the fields of physical therapy, strength and conditioning, and human performance. When he’s not working or training, he enjoys spending time with his wife and family, barbecuing, and going to the movie theater whenever he gets the chance.

Cassie Repasky, PT DPT
-
I grew up in Colorado Springs, Colorado, where I spent most of my childhood involved in sports. At any given time, I was typically playing 2–4 sports, with softball and soccer becoming my primary focus. After experiencing multiple injuries throughout my athletic career, I eventually concentrated solely on softball and went on to play collegiately at Black Hills State University, graduating in 2015. I later earned my Doctor of Physical Therapy (DPT) degree from the University of Puget Sound in 2018.
Following graduation, I practiced outpatient orthopedic physical therapy in Puyallup, Washington for several years before relocating to northern Colorado, where I continued working in outpatient orthopedics. After moving to Cheyenne, Wyoming, I chose to step away from clinical practice for a period of time to focus on raising my two young children.
Now, I’m excited to be returning to the profession and re-entering clinical practice with Atlas.
I am deeply committed to providing evidence-based, patient-centered care and prioritize continuing education to ensure my treatment approach remains current and effective. My professional passions are heavily influenced by my own experiences as an athlete and include sports rehabilitation, performance-based care, and women’s health. I plan to pursue specialization in pelvic health physical therapy beginning in 2027.
Outside of work, I spend most of my time with my family. My husband, two children, and two huskies keep life busy and fun. We love camping, traveling, and staying active together. Personally, I am currently training for HYROX and strongly believe in practicing what I preach—I strive to train myself with the same dedication and consistency I encourage in my patients.

Catherine Amey, PT DPT

Catherine grew up in Toms River, New Jersey, where a lifelong love of sports sparked her passion for physical therapy. After competing in varsity soccer throughout high school and at the collegiate level, two ACL surgeries inspired her to pursue a career helping others recover and return to the activities they love.
Her journey in physical therapy began as a PT technician and office coordinator before becoming a Physical Therapist Assistant in 2009. She earned her Doctor of Physical Therapy degree from the University of St. Augustine in Austin, Texas, in 2021. Catherine has experience across a wide range of settings, including outpatient orthopedics and sports, inpatient rehabilitation, acute care, skilled nursing, military, and pediatrics.
Catherine is passionate about returning to outpatient sports and orthopedic care, where she enjoys combining hands-on manual therapy with individualized treatment plans to help patients reach their goals. She is certified as a Performance Specialist and is currently expanding her skills through dry needling training. She believes in a "test, treat, retest" approach to ensure every intervention is making a meaningful difference.
Outside the clinic, Catherine enjoys traveling (she's visited nearly all 50 states), fishing, softball, yoga, reformer Pilates, camping, road trips, and spending time outdoors with her fiancé.

Cailin Wuensch, LMT

Born and raised in Gillette, Wyoming, Cailin earned her B.A. in Psychology from the University of Wyoming in 2016 and graduated from the Utah College of Massage Therapy in Salt Lake City in 2018. She has been a Licensed Massage Therapist since 2018 and spent five years working at a top-rated spa before transitioning into private practice.
Her passion for massage therapy began through her background as a competitive figure skater and coach. Seeing hockey teammates recover from injuries and improve their performance through massage sparked her interest in the profession, while her own experiences navigating chronic illness deepened her understanding of the importance of individualized, compassionate care.
Today, she takes a personalized approach to massage therapy, tailoring each session to the individual’s goals and needs. Her services include relaxation, deep tissue, sports massage, focused/spot treatment, trigger point therapy, lymphatic massage, cranial techniques, and prenatal massage.
Hot stones and cupping are also available with select services when appropriate. These modalities are not used during prenatal massage or for clients with certain cardiovascular conditions due to their potential effects on circulation and blood pressure.
