The Post-Physical Therapy Transition Program
8-Week Program
Individual Coaching v.s. the 8-Week Program: What's the Difference?
✓ You’re no longer in physical therapy (or never needed it ).
✓ You’re still dealing with nagging pain, stiffness, or hesitancy that shows up on the trail, on downhill descents, or during longer days outdoors.
✓ You don’t need rehab, but you still need a plan that helps you train intelligently, manage load, and restore trust in how your body performs.
✓ You’ve been cleared by PT, but returning to real trails feels like a big leap.
✓ You may feel deconditioned, unsure on uneven terrain, or hesitant to push distance, elevation, or intensity.
✓ You’re ready to move beyond rehab exercises and rebuild real-world strength, endurance, and confidence for the activities you actually care about.

My Inner Summit Journey
Inner Summit Wellness was built from two worlds coming together:
My own personal love of outdoor adventure, and
Understanding that there’s no clear, structured plan to help you return to the trail safely and confidently.
For 20+ years, I’ve been hiking, backpacking, and exploring the outdoors. I have learned firsthand that confidence in your body doesn't happen suddenly, and must be built on uneven ground, enduring conditions, and unpredictable terrain.
Along the way, I’ve navigated through getting lost in the desert mountains while running low on water, battling altitude sickness on day two of a 7-day backcountry expedition with no way out, and fighting through severe knee pain while summitting Pikes Peak. Those experiences, as well as so many more, have shaped my respect for nature, resilience, and preparation.
As a Wellness Coach, founder of Inner Summit Wellness, and a licensed Doctor of Physical Therapy, I come with a deep understanding of anatomy, injury recovery, and the rehab process. I’ve worked with hundreds of indoor and outdoor athletes across a wide range of sports and activities, helping them rehab injuries to return to their activities and sports.
However, I repeatedly saw the same gap: people were cleared from PT because they were deemed "no longer medically necessary" by insurance, but still didn’t trust themselves to return to the trail.
That’s why I founded Inner Summit Wellness. I wanted to provide 1:1 online return to hiking coaching to help you bridge the gap between finishing physical therapy and returning to hiking and outdoor activities with confidence.
I help my clients become confident in themselves and truly trust their body to be trail ready.
Who This Is For
People who are pain-free (or mostly there) but hesitant to return to hiking, and want to rebuild stability, endurance, and trust in their body for real-world hiking terrain.
Who This Is Not For
Those needing medical treatment for injuries, still requiring skilled physical therapy treatment, or athletes seeking competition-level training.
Begin Your Inner Summit Journey
Inner Summit Wellness is the next step after you have finished your rehab. It is where you will confidently prepare your body for the outdoor adventures you love. It is where you will make inner transformations to summit your goals in order to live a life of wellness.
