“My redshirt sophomore year I tore my meniscus in my right knee and had to have surgery and Blaire did a wonderful job with putting me through rehab and getting back as soon as possible. The knowledge she has is beyond amazing. She is friendly also professional at the same time. Also, getting ready to go to the pro level. She would work with me and help me with my hips. I have worked with doctors, trainers, and physical therapist at the pro level and working with Blaire is the best choice you can make when it comes to physical therapy.”

“Blaire is an amazing physical therapist. She is truly a movement expert! I have witnessed many of her patients who have tried previous therapy only to have the impairment temporary fixed. Blaire has a way of understanding the body such that movement is restored, and patients leave healthier and stronger. She understands not only the current problem but what repetitive movements keep the problem coming back. If you truly want a physical therapist that is dedicated to returning you to your optimal health, she is the best around!”

“When it comes to competing at the elite level staying healthy is the key to success. At Streamline Sports Physical Therapy, both Blaire and Kate are extraordinary therapist. Each of which have extensive physical therapy backgrounds that produce results. I receive the best rehabilitation for numerous injuries that occur during training. After each treatment session, I am able to compete and train at the highest level trusting my body will perform. Without a doubt, the best therapist in Pocatello for physical therapy. Looking forward to working with each of them in the future.”

“My Name is Mario Jenkins. I am from Tampa, Florida. About 3 years ago, I tore my ACL during Fall Football camp of 2014. It was an experience that I will never forget as it is still very vivid in my mind. I remember a loud “pop” l kept telling myself that it’s not my ACL but I had a gut feeling that it was. Unfortunately, I received the news that I did not want to hear, and so my introduction and journey with Blaire began. I began to start physical therapy with Blaire to have my knee get stronger and the swelling to go down before I went to get an MRI. A week had passed and I was able to find the results of my MRI. Sure enough, a complete tear in my ACL and other surrounding ligaments was what I was facing for recovery. I knew this process was going to be long and I had to start from the basics and rebuild myself again from scratch.
After the surgery to repair my torn ACL, I began rehab with Blaire. She told me from the get-go it wasn’t going to be easy and I knew it wasn’t. I was, however, determined to put in the work to come out a better athlete. Blaire pushed me every day and worked on improving my hip, quad, and hamstring strength back to where they needed to be. I began running on the treadmill in 3 months.
I believe that I was able to do this so quickly because, with Blaire’s encouragement and support, I was doing so many more workouts outside of physical therapy. I that this would benefit me overall. Clamshells will be something I will always tell my ACL patients as a result of Blair pushing me with doing them. One thing many people lack is hip strength. Blaire was able to get me back on the field and able to become a better athlete, I was bigger, faster, and stronger on and off the field. I call her the Prodigy of Rehab because she is that great. With Blaire’s pushing and encouragement, I was able to be back on the field and as a result, I was able to accomplish 1st team all- American 1st team All-Conference, and Buch Buchanan Award Finalist. I was also invited to be a part of the Kansas City Chiefs rookie mini-camp. There is not a day that goes by that I don’t thank her for all she did for me and my rehabilitation. Before every game, she was always giving me a hug rooting for me. Blaire was truly an inspiration and played a pivotal role in my success and comeback. “

“I started having back pain in June of 2016 and saw several back specialists who could not find anything wrong. I was referred to Blaire for physical therapy, and she has had the most tremendous impact on my recovery. While I was still unaware of what was causing my pain, she truly cared and worked hard to help locate the source, which was confirmed to be a stress fracture in my lower back. Blaire has worked countless hours with me, helping to manage my pain through manual therapy, while focusing on proper strengthening, so I could return to my sport more powerful than I was before my injury. Blaire is the only person I would recommend to anyone looking for a physical therapist. She is very passionate about her work and compassionate towards each and every person that walks through her door. She truly makes you feel like a friend, not just a patient. Her positive environment kept me looking forward to all of my appointments and motivated me to work hard towards a full recovery.”

“Blaire is a true blessing to have in our community. Her knowledge of the body and how to optimize potential is second to none. While I was a professional baseball player for 9 years and competed at the highest level, I worked with her every offseason. She improved my speed, agility, strength and most importantly, kept me healthy during her innovative training programs. She is passionate about each person she works with. Whether it be a professional athlete, high school volleyball player or someone in the construction business with a sore back, she will thoroughly take care of you.”
