Hey Guys !

Today was my first day at BenchMark shadowing the PT. Because it went by so quickly, here’s a picture of the space they use at BenchMark. It’s small, but it gets full quickly. Today I focused on observing my supervisor and explored different methods of evaluating patients.

Howdy - I'm working with Adriana at Cathartic Kinesis and have been learning about how they go about training their clientele, we're coming into week 3 and I'm going to be starting to lead warmups and working more directly with people in guiding their movement. Hope you all have been well - Juni

It gets pretty busy here at BenchMark so I haven’t gotten the chance to take pictures with anyone. This is an image of sticky notes on the board, this is for vestibular patients, (or for patients to help them focus on something). There’s different names for this exercise, but I know it as the gaze stabilization, this exercise helps with reducing dizziness and improves balance.

Took a photo with the QB's Tyrese, Gabe, and John (left to right), Gabe made a fast impression as he would give me way too much information for speed lasers when I would just ask for names e.g. height, weight, where he went to high school. Definitely a comedian and made me feel welcomed with that little bit of friendly teasing. Gabe was also one of the first athletes to take my advice seriously and was doing extra work on his dorsiflexion the same day I told him he needed to work on it.

Been working with Eva throughout this whole internship. We clicked really well and have been also enjoying working on our internship project together at cute coffee shops !

I have been working at fit alliance PDX. The clientele are mostly 50 years and older and we do strength training and circuit training. Don’t let their gray hairs fool you, they kick some major butt!

Loving my experience here especially in this environment, learning all new techniques for treatment/rehab and building relationships with players from all sports, really digesting how and when to do certain things through phases of post surgery and post practice to get the players through another day.
