About
Jen graduated from Northeastern University's Physical Therapy program in 1996. Post graduation, she has worked with neurologic clients with spinal cord, brain, and CVA acute and sub-acute conditions. She has worked in wound care with hyperbaric oxygen and debridement. In those earliest years of her professional life, helping people recover from Total Joint Replacement surgeries and traumatic injuries was the focus.
Starting at 3 years out of Northeastern, through her health issues, she started a deep dive into an osteopathic continuing education program called Integrative Manual Therapy and received a full certification in 2005. This content was four additional years in myofascial, visceral, lymphatic, cranial sacral, somato-emotional, and nervous system work. She worked for the program Sharon Weiselfisch Giamatteo, developer for more than 10 years with an immersion level understanding of complicated conditions that did not recover from the usual interventions.
For three years, she undertook another expert-level mentorship training and collaboration with Dr. Jerome Weiss, MD, at the Pacific Center for Pelvic Pain, where she worked with severe pelvic pain conditions in men and women in San Francisco.
Since returning to the East Coast, she has been the Clinical Supervisor for a Spaulding Outpatient facility affiliated with Mass General Brigham in Boston, MA.
Three years ago, she returned to a cash-based practice when she opened Levity PT and Bodyworks in Natick, MA, to continue to serve her patients in a way that is not dictated by insurance companies and endless time-consuming paperwork that takes away from patient care that puts the client first. She has been teaching osteopathic Physical Therapy techniques outside of her practice and has recorded the content to reach a wider audience.
