Dr. Anika Jansen

Physical therapist treating orthopedic conditions, plus the vestibular, balance and concussion cases where the problem is not pain in one spot.

Orthopedics, plus the cases that make the room spin.

Anika grew up in the San Francisco Bay Area and moved to Charleston, South Carolina to earn her Doctorate in Physical Therapy at the Medical University of South Carolina. As a student she interned in Salt Lake for two rotations, testing out the winters. She came back to work in 2019 and stayed.

Orthopedic care is her base caseload. On top of it she has built a focus on patients carrying vestibular, balance and concussion diagnoses, where the complaint is dizziness or unsteadiness rather than one painful spot. She also uses functional dry needling as part of her treatment.

Tested first. Then tailored.

Listen First

Your first visit runs about an hour, and it starts with the story, not the table. What you did, when it changed, and what you have stopped doing since.

Test It

Hands-on assessment and objective testing. With dizziness and unsteadiness the cause is rarely where you feel it, so the testing is what separates one explanation from another.

Build It Back

Reduce the pain, prevent the recurrence, prime the tissue, then perform. The program is built off your evaluation, and Anika stays in the room for it.

Training and focus.

Where she trained, and what she has chosen to go deeper on since.
