our promise to you
To leave no stone unturned in the pursuit of better health. You will have a smooth process to see a well-trained and prepared provider to work with you every step of the way.
we listen to you
This seems obvious, but in healthcare, personal attention isn’t the norm. We’re not the norm. We structure time to understand you and understand your condition. Your journey of how you got here is critical to our ability to coach you to the next steps. All of your sessions will be one-on-one with the physical therapist, not passed to support staff.
WE apply science
Science has given us many fundamental rules of healing and movement. It’s common sense to apply these principles to your treatment plan. But, as we know, common sense is not so common. In our case, we can guide you to best practices in your recovery.
we measure
You can’t start down a path if you don’t know where you are. Let’s get a baseline and set goals to see progress. We use experience and cutting-edge technology to determine where to start and how to develop a path to success.
we deliver a plan
This is what you came for. You deserve to know what is going on in your body and what actions you can take to change it.

One phrase comes up often when discussing higher standards of care:
"That wouldn`t work with my patient population."
It`s an understandable assumption—but one worth challenging.
The goal of great coaching and rehabilitation isn`t to find people who are already motivated, knowledgeable, or optimized.
It`s to help people become those things.
At KIME, we`ve applied the same principles across professional athletes, adolescents, active adults, and older adults because the standard isn`t reserved for one demographic.
Education.
Clear expectations.
Progressive coaching.
A belief that people are capable of more than they often realize.
Communities don`t improve because the right patients show up.
They improve because clinicians and coaches consistently raise the standard.
We don`t recruit optimized people.
We help optimize the people in front of us.

The goal wasn`t just healing her knee. It was getting her back here. ⚽
After months away from the game recovering from multiple knee injuries, Cailin returned to the field this week—and scored in her first game back.
That`s what Return to Sport means.
Not simply being pain-free.
Not just checking a box.
Being prepared to perform when the moment arrives.
Over the past four years, Cailin has worked with multiple KIME physical therapists throughout her recovery journey. Katie has had the privilege of working with her for the past two years, and being there to watch Cailin return to competition—and score in her first game back—was a full-circle moment.
One game down.
One goal scored.
One final season at the University of Oregon ahead.
Congratulations, Cailin. We`re proud to have been part of your journey and can`t wait to see what your final season has in store. 💙

Investing in the next generation of rehabilitation leaders.
This week, Jonathan had the opportunity to lecture future Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation (PM&R) clinicians at UC Davis on the role of force plate technology in post-operative rehabilitation and return-to-performance decision making.
Recovery shouldn’t rely on guesswork.
Force plates provide objective data that helps clinicians measure how patients produce force, absorb load, restore symmetry, and rebuild confidence after injury or surgery. That information allows healthcare providers to make more informed decisions throughout rehabilitation—not just when pain has subsided, but when performance is truly ready to return.
As technology continues to shape the future of rehabilitation, it’s important that tomorrow’s clinicians understand how objective movement data can improve patient outcomes and elevate the standard of care.
At KIME, we’re committed to sharing knowledge beyond our own clinics because today’s students become tomorrow’s rehabilitation leaders. Investing in their education is one more way we help improve the future of patient care.
Thank you to UC Davis for the opportunity to share, collaborate, and help advance the next generation of evidence-informed rehabilitation professionals.

An injury doesn`t just affect your body.
It affects your brain.
The moment pain shows up, your brain starts asking questions long before you consciously do:
"Is this serious?"
"Will this ever go away?"
"Will I ever play again?"
That threat response happens almost instantly, which is why injuries often bring fear, frustration, anger, or uncertainty—not just physical pain.
Understanding that changes how rehabilitation begins.
The first step isn`t simply treating the injured tissue.
It`s helping someone understand what`s happening, reducing uncertainty, and building confidence that there is a path forward.
Recovery starts with the body.
But it also starts with the brain.

Kara Jenkins, PT, DPT presented at the Mountain Orthopaedic Rendezvous Conference, hosted by Mammoth Orthopedic Institute.
Her talk: “You’re Measuring the Wrong Stuff: What Doctors Miss That Therapists See.”
Two athletes can both pass their limb symmetry index at 94-95% on traditional tests. One of them is fully recovered. The other is weak on both sides and still technically symmetrical.
Standard hop testing can’t always tell the difference.
That’s the gap Kara spoke to: force plates and objective testing catch what protocols alone can miss. Her goal wasn’t to challenge the room. It was to build with it. Better data means better conversations between PTs and surgeons, and better outcomes for the athlete in the middle of them.
Thank you to Mammoth Orthopedic Institute for the invitation. Kara represented KIME alongside leaders in orthopedic surgery and sports medicine.
