Empower PT_Your Guide To Smart Running

STAFF SPOTLIGHT

Hello, my name is Jessica Nykanen and I’m the Patient Care Liaison and Physical Therapy Technician at Empower Physical Therapy. I have been with the company for about three years and I love my job! When I am not working with patients and have free time, I enjoy being outdoors and also spending time with my animals. I have many including snakes, tarantulas, lizards and a hedgehog. They are so sweet and are very fun to learn about. I have included pictures of a couple of them here for you to see: Our tarantula’s name is Gohma and our hedgehog’s name is Witch Hazel. They bring so much joy to my life! If you ever have any questions and you come to see us here at Empower, do not hesitate to ask me!
