Arthritis
Fibromyalgia
I am a 61 year old male who continues to engage in the same physical activities of many decades ago including hockey, wilderness cross country skiing, backpacking, mountain biking, distance swimming, mountaineering, etc.). Occasionally, I get strains and injuries that don’t get resolved thru regular PT practice. To make things more complicated I have lingering issues of fibromyalgia, so that my muscles often don’t respond well to traditional treatment. I have gone to Jennifer in the past for low back issues and most recently I had the worst pain episode of my life after a herniated disk in my neck expanded into a severe upper back strain. I went to regular PT for this for a few weeks with little improvement. I switched to Jennifer and after 4 visits over a month the pain became minimal and the disk issue diminished considerably.
Plantar Fasciitis
Medical Weight Loss
I had an apron of skin left over from pregnancy and weight loss. I had elective surgery to remove it and I was left with a scar from hip to hip and scar tissue/adhesions that limited my activities. Also, my legs ached everyday. At our first session Jennifer questioned me about past surgeries. She immediately saw the connection between the tightness in my abdomen and the swelling and discomfort in my legs. She used Myofascial release to help the scar and adhesions become more mobile which improved my posture, helped the swelling in my legs and relieved the pain in my knees.

Endometriosis
Pain in the pelvic floor region is not uncommon, such as tailbone pain/coccyxdynia, vulvodynia (pain in the vaginal area), and painful intercourse. Problems can occur from scar tissue and adhesions from either endometriosis or surgical procedures like episiotomy, laparoscopies, or hysterectomy.
Pregnancy

Interstitial Cystitis
Treatment of the pelvic floor in either females or males is a specialized aspect of physical therapy. There are a wide range of issues that can arise from tightness in the fascia or muscles of the pelvic floor or around the organs inside the pelvis. These can include urinary frequency, urgency or problems with incontinence and interstitial cystitis, and some prostate issues.

Foot Pain
Plantar Fasciitis
I discovered Jennifer at the recommendation of a practitioner of Myofascial release who was closing her practice. What a terrific recommendation! I originally came to Jennifer for chronic plantar fasciitis. Jennifer certainly had the skills to help address this and to teach me how to keep myself pain free.
Podiatric Surgery
I recently had foot surgery on my right big toe – recovery was going to be slow and painful – I had a boot on for weeks and could barely hobble around my house and office. I was nervous and skeptical about physical therapy because my past experience with a few different clinics in the area was underwhelming. After reading Jennifer’s website and the patient reviews, I scheduled an appointment...it turned out to be one of the best decisions regarding my health and recovery I could have made. We started off with very light therapy as my toe was tender and swollen – she focused on lymphatic draining to reduce the swelling and pain. Within days, I could see a tremendous difference. Both my pain level and recovery time has drastically decreased from what my Doctor told me to expect; I continue to see improvement each week. My recovery has accelerated beyond any of my expectations and I am confident it has all to do with Jennifer. Jen sees each patient one at a time, spends 100% of her focus and attention on them, and is extremely knowledgeable about the body. By far the most educated and thorough therapist I have ever met. I strongly recommend Jennifer to any and all physical therapy patients. I believe you will find her care to be one of the best health decisions you will make.
