Get to know Kaitlyn

My name is Kaitlyn McNamara and I am a performance physical therapist and certified running coach. I am a competitive marathon runner and outdoor enthusiast originally from Washington state. In my free time, I can most often be found coaching and running races, adventuring outside with my boyfriend and dog, or taking ski trips to the mountains. After being shuffled through the medical system with sport-related injuries as a young athlete, I became a physical therapist to help those looking for an alternative to injections, surgeries, and “stop running”. I am passionate about working with runners and athletes who have met similar dead ends and frustration with injuries or plateaus in their performance. My goal is to bridge the gap between rehabilitation and performance by integrating injury prevention and healthy training strategies into each client’s repertoire to not just address an injury but take their experience and abilities to a new level.

Why Empower U?

As an athlete and especially a runner, I deeply understand how interrupting injury can be – not only to your goals and lifestyle, but how it can result in a loss of identity. The people and vision here at Empower U have provided me the freedom to practice the way I want to – with my client as the centerpiece. Our practice emphasizes a holistic approach to rehabilitation, where you will never feel like you are just a number in a system. Your goals, confidence, and independence with finding what works best for your active lifestyle will always be our top priority. If you’re looking for a better PT experience, this is it.
