Lisa Ruttenberg Bor and Christy Mann

Lisa Ruttenberg Bor and Christy Mann owned and operated Over the Mountain Rehab from March 2003-October 2013. In November 2013, they merged their clinic with another clinic, AccelAbility Physical Therapy to form a practice that provides rehabilitation services including orthopedic and sports therapy, hand therapy, industrial rehabilitation and spine rehabilitation.

“It has been a wonderful merger and an easy transition,” said Christy.

Christy is a board certified hand therapist with 22 years of experience, and Lisa is a board certified orthopedic clinical specialist with 25 years of experience.

“As an occupational therapist, I had two separate injuries on my dominant arm. This led to an interest in arm and hand injuries,’ said Christy. “Lisa was always interested in science and medicine and took a job with the PT at the University of Georgia. This peaked her interest in the profession.”

Christy lives in Vestavia Hills and is married to Bill. They have four children: Jessica, 16, Addison, 9, Emma Parker, 7 and Kyle, 5. Lisa lives in Mountain Brook with her husband, Jim, and has three children: Alexa, 19, Jake, 17, and Dylan, 9.

“Our kids are very active, so all of our free time is consumed with their activities, of which, our professions have definitely come in handy with their various injuries!” said Christy. 

The two encourage the community to pay them a visit.

“If you have been living in pain or are experiencing new pains, give us a call or come in and see us,” said Christy. “You don’t have to live in pain.”
