I had my first costumed client of the year! Check out Superman! 🐾💛🐾

I got the nicest compliment from a client today.

She said, “You go through my issue with a fine-toothed comb. It makes me feel more secure about what’s happening. This isn’t McDonald’s physical therapy. This is the Chez Panisse of physical therapy!”

She gets it. 💛

This is what is it’s all about in Canine Physical Therapy—giving the dogs a chance to communicate with us. They may have never had that chance before. 🐾💛🐾

Agree 💯. If your dog is limping and/or has had behavior changes, please see a canine rehabilitation professional.

My brain is tired! I just spent the last 3 days learning new techniques for…

whiplash, headaches, sciatic pain, and so much more!

I learned how to feel exactly where your head, neck, and spine need attention.

I’m looking forward to getting back to work this week!

Do you have scars from previous injuries or surgeries?

Come see me at Common Ground Wellness Center!

The combination of McLoughlin Scar Tissue Release + Neurokinetic Therapy allows us to find & correct compensations resulting from your injury/surgery.

✨That means increased resilience and reduced risk of future injuries. ✨

(It’s for dogs, too!)

THIS! This is such an important part of canine rehab and fitness training.

Just because the dog CAN do the movement does not mean that they SHOULD be doing the movement.

Working with a professional will help you determine if your exercise routine is right for your dog or get you started on the right path 🐾💛🐾

A ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ review from a client…😊

This review has been a long time coming. I never write reviews, which is why the delay, but Jen’s work has left a lasting impression because of her integrity.

Jen is not a cookie-cutter physical therapist. Her approaches are not “traditional,” but as a structural therapist, I immediately recognized Jen’s deep integrative knowledge and her boldness in carrying it into her work.

She helped connect a childhood head injury to my current symptoms—something other professionals completely missed—and she helped uncover obvious (to her) surgical scar tissue impacting mobility and movement patterns.

Jen is one of a rising minority of young PTs who elect not to go into traditional institutional PT, because they refuse to “forget” what they actually know about the body in order to fit into a corporate insurance model.

Jen’s practice stands out for being truly integrative and holistic while completely grounded in science and pragmatism. I cannot recommend her enough.

I can’t wait to start rehabbing injuries from these devices. What could go wrong??

“AI is entering the physical realm in a big way. Case in point: I spent Mother’s Day e-hiking with bionic leg boosters.

I strapped my two-year-old in a hiking carrier, and went for a walk up a winding dirt trail. The robotic hip motors whirred and a mechanical force tugged at my quads.

As the incline got steeper, I opened the companion app on my phone and pressed 'Boost.'

My stride quickened. The whirring got louder. As the AI marched me toward the summit, I enjoyed the view. Thirty seconds later, the surge of power was over, and the legs returned to the gentler Eco mode.

These motorized supports were once reserved for military, heavy industry and mobility rehabilitation. Now, they are light and affordable enough for regular folks—regular folks who want to feel superhuman, that is.

Two weeks of testing didn’t transform me into Iron Man. But the rig did make me want to sprint everywhere—and I hate running.”

I made a choice a long time ago to keep my practice small and to provide concierge Physical Therapy services.

That means that you have access to me between visits.

I’m on your team, and not only for your appointment time.

I’m here to celebrate the little wins.

I’m here to follow-up on your visit with the doctor and coach you on what to ask next.

I’m here when you have questions.

That’s the concierge part of Concierge Physical Therapy.

Picture of canine client returning to hiking and jumping on logs. A big win!
