Meet Michelle Zens, our “Boot Camp” PT here at Rausch. Michelle’s niche targets hardcore athletes that participate in boot camps, weight lifting, HIIT, or anything in between. She treats a vast array of issues including shoulder injuries, low back pain, knee injuries, muscle strains, ankle sprains and much more. The patients she treats are of all ages and backgrounds with the one commonality being that they want to return to their active lifestyle safely! Michelle is an expert in this niche because she loves to participate in boot camps herself, as well as HIIT and weight lifting programs. Having participated in several different programs and having been injured in a boot camp, she understands what it is like to want to get back to working out but not being able to safely. She has taken her own experience and applied what she has learned, first hand while working with her patients so that they are able to return to what they love. Michelle’s favorite body part to treat would have to be the knee. Having undergone ACL reconstructive surgery herself with several months of PT afterward, she is able to relate to her patients on a deeper level.
