Hi, I’m Jenny Thurner!
I’m a trained pediatric physical therapist specializing in bodywork here to bring you hope in knowing you have other options than “wait and see” when it comes to your child’s development and mobility.
Working with kids brings me so much joy and I love seeing how well they respond to treatment.
Here are some examples of how my work has helped my clients: helped them sleep through the night, feed better, achieve symmetrical body posture and alignment, meet the next motor milestone (yay crawling!), and balanced their nervous system so they can play and move with ease.
I know what it’s like to feel uncertain and worried about your child and their development.
Back when one of our foster kiddos was an infant, he had extreme “colic” behaviors. We were told he will grow out of it.
As a family, we did not get much sleep, felt unsure about our parenting skills, felt hopeless, and agitated. It was my job to “fix” this for him.
I was ignited by the desire to help not only him, but also my future little friends. Witnessing his transformation, I’ve been training and practicing bodywork ever since!
Now I tailor my extensive training and qualifications to assist each individual child reach a balanced state of wellness; helping them feel better, move better, and achieve to their fullest potential.
“She entered our life when both my baby and me needed encouragement, support, and care to reach our goals. She provided exactly what we needed”
“We met Jenny when Annalise was 5.5 weeks old. As a physical therapist myself, I had high standards of care, though I had no background in pediatrics. Watching Jenny work with my baby convinced me that we had found the best. Jenny quickly became the highlight of our week. Words can only explain a part of how Jenny helped us. She entered our life when both my baby and me needed encouragement, support, and care to reach our goals. She provided exactly what we needed.” - Rachel P.

Here are some other things you should know
Bodywork releases structural tensions, helping your baby’s readiness for all the jobs awaiting for development such as rolling, turning their head in both directions, reaching for their feet, playing with toys, and moving to get the toy they want.
Enhance the health and wellness through a holistic approach for your infant; making the connections as a whole child.
Through touch and your baby’s guidance, bodywork “thinks” about your baby’s body structure mechanically, physiologically, and emotionally in order to move freely without a head or body preference.
Your baby is simply not “growing out of an issue”. Bodywork techniques can find answers waiting to be discovered in the body to help them progress in their skills.
“Learn how to use his body correctly”
Dr. Jenny was incredible working with our sweet boy who was born about a month premature. She used a variety of exercises and play to help our son get stronger and learn how to use his body correctly and taught us exercises we could work on with him in between sessions. The results were amazing! I would recommend Dr Jenny in a heartbeat to anyone looking for support from a pediatric PT! - Kathleen S.
