Initial Physical Therapy Evaluation:
Building the Foundation

Your first visit is designed to help Dr. Jen understand your story, your symptoms, and your goals. This appointment is not rushed. It is a time to ask questions, discuss what you have been experiencing, and begin creating a plan that supports your body and your season of life.

During your first visit:

Understanding Your Story: We begin with a one-on-one conversation to understand your history, symptoms, and goals. This helps us begin to target the root cause, rather than just manage symptoms.

Physical Assessment: Your evaluation is tailored specifically to you and  guided by our discussion. We look at how your whole body is working together. This may include anything from jaw function to foot mechanics, and everything in between.

Pelvic Floor Assessment (If Appropriate): If we decide together it’s beneficial, this may also involve an internal/external pelvic floor muscle assessment. Your comfort is always the absolute priority–we only move at your pace.

Your Personalized Roadmap: Together, we’ll create a plan that supports your goals, whether that’s reducing pain, restoring function, preparing for birth, or returning to movement with confidence.

Treatment Begins on Day One: You won’t leave empty-handed. We’ll begin hands-on care and/or specific exercises right away, so you can walk out feeling encouraged, empowered, and already moving toward your goals.
