In November, I unfortunately tore my hamstring while sprinting. Over the past 6 months, I have been undergoing continuous physical therapy with Jen Mackin at UPANDRUNNING. Thanks to her expertise, dedication, and tailored recovery plan, I am thrilled to say that I am finally back to my normal routine, successfully returning to my regular running and cycling sessions. I couldn't be more satisfied with the care I received. Highly recommend Jen and the entire team!
Jennifer is very patient and explains in detail which is what I need. She also goes to specifics while doing the exercises to make sure I do them correctly.

Jen was really good at helping with both my shoulder and hip pain. The physio helped reduce the pain and she also showed me gym exercises that have helped to prevent the pain from returning.
Several Physio sessions in relation to rotator cuff injury. But Jen has helped me earlier with a different injury and I was keen to go back to her
Very professional and understanding of the treatment was excellent
