Background

From the field to the treatment table

Sarah competed in collegiate track before earning her Doctorate in Physical Therapy and a sports-clinical-specialist certification. She has supported high-school, collegiate, and weekend-warrior athletes through ACL recovery, ankle sprains, and overuse injuries — and she coordinates directly with coaches and surgeons so every comeback is a team effort.

Specialties
  • ACL & knee rehab — from surgery to tested clearance.
  • Sprains, strains & tendons — ankle, hamstring, Achilles.
  • Injury-prevention screening — find weak links before they sideline you.
