Last, but certainly not least: Janna Gardner—our behind-the-scenes MVP

With 10+ years as a personal trainer, Janna has always been about helping people reach their goals—now she makes sure every patient at NERSC has a smooth, stress-free experience from the very first call.

She’s the friendly voice on the phone, the one keeping schedules, billing, and communication running seamlessly, and the reason everything feels organized before you even walk in.

Her favorite part? Helping patients feel at ease right away—especially when they’re coming in nervous after an injury or surgery.

Pro tips from Janna:
👉 Fill out your intake ahead of time
👉 Come ready with your schedule + info
👉 Wear comfortable clothes (think workout-ready)

Her approach in 3 words: Compassion. Clarity. Efficiency.

Outside of work, she’s chasing her toddler during the day and unwinding with her husband at night—the perfect balance 💛

Happy Birthday, Nancy! 🎉

From all of us at NERSC— We hope your day is as strong as your lifts and as fun as your runs. You bring the best energy to the clinic (and the best Spotify playlists), keep our whiteboard stocked with cartoons, and somehow power it all with coffee, buffalo chicken and good food.

We appreciate every mile you’ve driven and everything you bring to the team—and we know Rose is getting some extra birthday steps in today too!

Have the best day, Nancy!! 💪🎂

End-stage ACL rehab is about reconnecting everything—movement, timing, and confidence.

Low defender mindset: react, mirror, disrupt.
�Working reactionary change of direction through live reads, tight mirrors, and controlled contact—because that’s what the game demands.

Here, we are using game-like examples from clears to crease defense and ground balls into 1v1.

(Please excuse the PT’s lack of attacking skills, she was a defender 🤣)

Get to Know Our PT’s 👇

Last but not least: Julie (Hubbard) Clancey, PT, DPT, MS, CSCS

Julie’s path into PT started early—growing up around healthcare and then experiencing it firsthand after an ACL tear at 16. Add in her background as a soccer player exposed to high-level rehab, and the direction was clear.

She’s all about:
✔️ Working with high-level athletes and building up the next generation
✔️ Taking “uncoordinated” 13–17 year olds and turning them into machines
✔️ Long-term development, not just quick fixes

Her go-to? Side plank variations for everyone
Her hot take? Jefferson curls… not making the program 👀

Treatment style in 3 words:
👉 “Yes, you can.”

Biggest reminder from Julie:
👉 Clearance isn’t the finish line—return to sport is a continuum
👉 The habits that get you back are the ones that keep you there

Something she wants every client to understand:
👉 Stress is stress is stress—training, life, sleep—it all impacts recovery

Outside the clinic, she’s running, lifting to support it, and getting her steps in with her dogs Rover and Mika 🐾

That’s a wrap on our team—thanks for getting to know us!

Next up: Brian Clancey, PT, DPT, OCS, CSCS

Brian found PT at the intersection of two things he loves—anatomy and strength & conditioning—and he’s been blending both ever since.

He’s all about:
✔️ Working with clients who trust the process… and let him pick the weight 😏
✔️ Treating ACLs, tendinopathies, shoulders, and anything golf or hockey-related
✔️ Building stronger, more resilient athletes for the long run

His go-to? Single leg squats off a box
His hot take? SL RDLs without assistance aren’t his favorite for building strength 👀

Treatment style in 3 words?
👉 “What’s for dinner?” (we’ll let you interpret that one 😂)

Biggest reminder from Brian:
👉 What you do outside the clinic matters—rest and recovery can make or break your progress

And something he wants every client to know:
👉 PT isn’t just rehab—it’s how you stay in the game longer

Outside the clinic, you’ll find him on the golf course, playing men’s league hockey, snowboarding, or lifting ⛳🏒💪

Stay tuned to meet the rest of the team!

Get to Know Our PT’s 👇

Next up: Michele Lederman, PT, DPT, CSCS

Michele’s path to PT started with her own injury history—combined with a love for anatomy and a passion for coaching, it was a natural fit. Now she’s all about helping people put in the work and get stronger.

She’s all about:
✔️ Working with anyone ready to show up and put the effort in
✔️ Treating ACLs, bone stress injuries, and pelvic health conditions
✔️ Keeping rehab active, strength-based, and performance-focused

Her go-to? Knee extensions (tempo, speed, isometrics—she uses it all)

Her hot take? Power cleans aren’t always worth it in this setting—too technical, too time-intensive 👀

Biggest reminder from Michele:
👉 Don’t be afraid to reach for the heavier weight
👉 Progress isn’t perfectly linear—celebrate the small wins along the way

Outside the clinic, you’ll find her lifting, skiing, or walking her dog Millie 🐾

Stay tuned to meet the rest of the team!

Up next: Ashley Murtagh, PT, DPT, CSCS

Ashley’s journey started as an athlete dealing with multiple injuries—then an ACL surgery changed everything. Now she’s passionate about helping athletes do what she once had to: put in the work and get back to what they love.

She’s all about:
✔️ Working with motivated athletes who show up and put in the work outside the clinic
✔️ Guiding post-op patients from day one all the way back to sport
✔️ Keeping you moving every step of the way

Her go-to? Split squats (endless ways to progress & modify)
Her hot take? Crunches aren’t it—there are better ways to train your core 👀

Biggest reminder from Ashley:
👉 More isn’t always better. Overtraining can slow you down.
👉 Recovery isn’t linear—but consistency always wins.

Outside the clinic, she’s spending time with her dogs and daughter, getting outside daily, and training with soccer, hiking, and powerlifting 💪

Stay tuned to meet the rest of the team!

Get to Know Our PT’s 👇

Up first: Nancy Kuhn, PT, DPT, OCS

From being inspired by her brother to becoming a competitive hybrid athlete herself—Nancy brings both heart and high-level performance to everything she does.

She’s all about:
✔️ Helping people who love to move and feel their best
✔️ Treating everything from foot/ankle to shoulder to all things tendinopathy
✔️ Keeping it strategic, evidence-based, and human

Her go-to? Single leg squats
Her hot take? There are usually better options than clamshells 👀

Biggest reminder from Nancy:
👉 Healing isn’t linear. Stay consistent, trust the process.

When she’s not in the clinic, you’ll find her lifting, running, or hiking the Adirondacks all summer long 🏔️

Stay tuned to meet the rest of the team!

Last month’s high school strength group... Controlled chaos, organized strength 💥

We took on the “chaos” Pallof press, dialed in the floor press, powered through barbell step-ups, embraced the burn with RFESS, and locked in those reverse flies 🔒

Finished strong with wall sit med ball tosses — because why not end in pure chaos? 😤🔥
