When an older sister sustained a traumatic brain injury as
a teen, Dr. Krysten Kasting helped with her rehabilitation
— an experience that inspired her to pursue a career in
medicine. She is passionate about helping people regain
function and return to the activities that matter most.
As an experienced physiatrist, Dr. Kasting diagnoses
and treats medical conditions affecting the brain, spine,
nerves, bones, joints, ligaments, muscles and tendons. She
enjoys working with patients who have had amputations
and cord injuries. She also performs ultrasound-guided
injections and uses Botox for spasticity control. Dr. Kasting
emphasizes patient education. She believes in working
with patients to build a treatment plan that works for their
lifestyles. Dr. Kasting encourages a holistic approach to
health, incorporating diet, exercise and complementary
therapies, such as acupuncture and massage.
Originally from New Hampshire, she moved to northern
Ohio during high school. Her husband is a Middletown
native and they chose Cincinnati to be closer to family. She
is an equestrian and enjoys working with equine therapy
programs. She likes to spend time with friends and family
and walking her large dog.
