About me
Welcome to Jensen Physical Therapy, where personalized care meets a passion for movement. I'm Chris Jensen, a seasoned physical therapist with 15 years of experience in orthopedic care. My journey began with a Bachelor of Science in Exercise Biology from UC Davis and a Master of Physical Therapy from CSU Long Beach. As a Board-Certified Orthopedic Specialist, I am dedicated to helping you achieve your health and wellness goals.
​
Throughout my career, I've had the privilege of working with a diverse range of patients, from weekend warriors to elite athletes in the NCAA, MLB, Professional Triathlon Organisation, WNBA and NFL. My extensive experience across multiple states, including Idaho, New Mexico, Florida, Illinois and California has equipped me with the skills to connect with individuals from all walks of life.
​
I am a lifelong athlete with many passions. I've played an extensive amount of golf and love treating fellow golfers while chatting about the game. During my time in Illinois and Florida, I was an avid short-course triathlete, qualifying to represent Team USA in the Age Group World Championships in 2019. I have a heart for adaptive sports and have extensively volunteered with Dare2Tri in Chicago, aiding in ambulatory run clinics and multi-sport clinics. Some of my proudest moments include the honor of serving as a guide for visually impaired athletes in triathlons, where my personal passion for fitness and movement intersected with my heartfelt commitment to adaptive sports.
​
Running has been a constant in my life, beginning with track in elementary school. I was the first sub-5-minute miler in my high school, and my passion for racing has continued ever since. I've competed in local 5Ks to half marathons, achieving 20 age group wins in over 60 races. Many of my closest friends are part of the endurance community, spread across the country. While road running remains a favorite, I'm always on the lookout for my next trail adventure. I cherish the time spent on stroller runs with my son, though now I find myself eagerly chasing him on his bike. Surfing also captivates me, offering both a refreshing challenge and a connection to nature. Yet, the simplicity of a quick run—whether on a scenic trail or a trusty treadmill—often fits seamlessly into my active lifestyle. This balance of adventure and practicality is something I strive to bring to my patients, helping them find joy and ease in their own movement journeys.
​
