Physical Therapy & Strength Training for Mountain Bikers

Ride Stronger. Hurt Less.

Physical therapy and strength training built for mountain bikers, by a mountain biker. I’m Dr. Mikayla Jansen, DPT, and I work with riders at home in Bellingham, WA, and virtually across most US states.

​

If back pain is cutting your rides short, you don’t need to stop riding. You need a plan built around what your body actually does on the bike.

​

Most PT clinics treat you like you sit at a desk all day. They’ve never railed a berm or pumped through a rock garden, and it shows. Their plans don’t fit how you ride or what you’re trying to get back to.

​

I’m a physical therapist and a mountain biker. I know what your back, shoulders, and hips go through on a long descent, and I build programs that get you back on the trail and keep you there.

Rehab and Strength for the Trails

Two Ways to Work With Me​

Rehab to Strength Coaching

For riders in pain or coming back from injury. 1:1 physical therapy blended with strength training, in person in Bellingham or virtual. We find what’s actually driving your pain, fix it, and build you back stronger than before. Includes your custom program in the app, direct messaging, and video form feedback.

App Strength Training

For riders who are pain-free and want to stay that way. DPT-designed strength and injury prevention programs for back, shoulder, ankle, skiing, and more, in gym or at-home versions. Get strong for harder rides, and build durability after a past injury so it doesn’t come back. Train on your own for $30/month, or add 1:1 coaching for $90/month.

​​

  • Mountain bikers fighting back pain that flares during or after rides

  • Riders recovering from injury who want to return without re-injuring

  • Riders who want to ride longer, descend stronger, and crash less

  • Bikers who’d rather build durability than keep “managing” pain

Who is a Great Fit

What Our Clients Are Saying

​​​​

If you’re in pain right now, start with rehab coaching. If you feel good and want to keep it that way, start with the app. Either way, you can switch as your needs change.
