Cash Pay Physical Therapy Westminster CO | Made Strong PT

So you can keep saying yes to the things that matter.

For active adults who want to keep skiing, running, climbing, and lifting — and need someone who gets it.

What makes this different

Strength is the treatment

Pain is a signal, not a sentence. Before loading anything, we look at the whole picture: how you move, what your history is, what else might be contributing. Then we build from there. Progressive strength work from day one, because loading tissue is one of the best things you can do for it. Not a band-aid, a real solution.

The whole hour, every time

One patient at a time. No aides, no rotating rooms, no 20-minute check-in dressed up as a session. The full hour means we can actually look at the whole system. Not just the thing that hurts, but why it hurts, what’s driving it, and what needs to change. You get that every single visit.

Programming between sessions

Your program isn’t built around your diagnosis. It’s built around you — your movement, your history, your life, and the goals you actually care about. Because fixing a knee without understanding the whole body that moves it isn’t fixing anything. It’s a plan that reflects the complete picture, updated as you change.

Built for active people

Skiers, runners, climbers, cyclists, lifters. People who aren’t ready to slow down and don’t want to be told they have to. We meet you where you are, look at everything that’s contributing — not just the obvious thing — and build toward what you actually want your body to be able to do. Nothing is written off before we’ve actually figured out what’s going on.

Meet Dr. Jen Reed

“If you’ve been told to rest, do less, or just manage it — you deserve a better answer.”

Dr. Jen has had three ACL surgeries herself. She knows the difference between PT that gets you through the appointment and PT that actually changes how you move, train, and live. That gap is why Made Strong exists.

With a doctorate from Washington University in St. Louis and 9+ years of clinical experience across outpatient, hospital-based, and performance gym settings, Jen specializes in the cases that don’t respond to standard protocols — complex pain, post-surgical athletes, hypermobility, and active adults who’ve been told their options are limited.

She’s also an Ironman 70.3 finisher, an avid skier, climber, cyclist, and hiker. She understands what it means to train hard, but in a way that’s sustainable, meaningful, and fits into your life.

How it works

1.

We figure out what’s actually going on

The initial eval is 90 minutes. We go through your history, how you move, and what you want to do — not just the symptom. By the end, you’ll have a clear picture of what’s happening and a real plan for what comes next.

2.

You get a program, not a handout

A structured, progressive training plan built around your clinical picture and your life — not a sheet of generic exercises. It lives in a customized app so you can track it, reference it, and actually use it.

3.

Sessions are for things that require me

Manual work, dry needling, reassessment, load adjustments, movement coaching. Not for supervised exercise you could do on your own. The goal is that you need fewer sessions over time — because the programming is actually working.

4.

The plan adapts as you do

Flare-up? We adjust. Race in eight weeks? We periodize. Plateau? We reassess. This isn’t set it and forget it — it changes as you change.

“Dr. Reed is PHENOMENAL. My experience working with her was life changing. She is highly compassionate and works with you from where you are mentally and physically — and then sets you up to go places you didn’t think were possible.”

“My sessions were an hour and I was the only patient present. I felt like I got her full attention and a much more thorough evaluation — which led to results. She was responsive when issues came up between sessions. I am pain free now and feel like I have a solid understanding of which exercises I need to continue. I recommend working with her for your PT needs.”

“I have suffered three ACL tears in a very short period of time and worked with several different physical therapists — but it wasn’t until I started working with Jen that it all clicked and I was able to truly start healing. During our first meeting, I was unsure if I would ever be able to return to the mountain. After a few months of consistent work, I am now hiking big mountains, mountain biking, and swimming weekly. I truly do not know where I would be without Made Strong Physical Therapy.”

“Having had 3 ACL reconstructions and worked with more than my fair share of physical therapists — most treat the issue only until symptoms fade. With Dr. Reed it’s been completely different: customized, holistic, comprehensive care that not only reduces my chronic pain but builds new levels of strength I didn’t think were possible. For the first time, I’m doing plyometrics, trail runs and races, and pursuing goals I never thought I’d chase. Not just recovering what I lost — discovering abilities I never knew I had.”

“Jen helped me recover from ACL surgery with a meniscus repair. She has not only made me physically stronger and ready to return to skiing, climbing, and backpacking — but has also helped immensely with my confidence and mental readiness to return to an active lifestyle. The combination of needling, soft tissue work, and personalized exercises helped with my overall progress. Would recommend Jen to anyone looking for a highly qualified PT who understands what it takes to return to an active and joyful lifestyle.”

“I have had chronic back pain for 15 years. She did a full analysis of how I move and explained to me how chronic pain works. Second injury — I heard a pop in my knee while skiing. She tested all the ligaments, found a way to calm down my anxiety, and explained in terms I understood what was going on. Dr. Jen has had severe injuries herself and absolutely cares about people getting back to the activities we love. I cannot recommend her enough.”

“As a beginner triathlete facing training with a hip injury, I felt overwhelmed and discouraged. Jen tailored every approach to my needs, celebrated the small victories, and never stopped checking in — even outside of appointments. Thanks to Jen, I’m now heading into my Ironman with more confidence and strength than I ever thought possible. If you’re looking for a PT who will walk with you every step of the way — not just physically but emotionally — Jen is the one.”

“I came to her in the middle of a long string of injuries related to my hypermobility and she has been an incredible resource. She took my short- and long-term goals seriously and never tried to dissuade me from pursuing my outdoor adventures. Dr. Jen’s diagnostic skills are top notch and it was obvious that my rehab plan was being carefully tailored to the quirks of my hypermobile body. It’s rare to find someone who can provide the kind of excellent, evidence-based, weight neutral care that you will find with Dr. Jen.”

“I had a persistent tightness in a post-surgical knee after 150+ days of skiing. Jen claimed she could fix this in 10 minutes with dry needling plus electrical stimulation. She busted out the goniometer, took measurements, then did exactly that. I didn’t even need to see the results to know it had worked — the tension was gone. 100% satisfied. Jen is an absolute pro and I wouldn’t hesitate to return for any future issues.”

“Over the course of 3–5 months, Jen helped me progressively build strength which helped alleviate my hamstring pain. After about 5 months, my pain was gone. Now I’m 18 months out from my last PT session and my pain is still mostly gone. I would absolutely recommend Jen — and if I ever need a PT again, she’s my go-to.”
