CHAD 1000X

Today, we came together to honor veterans. We completed CHAD 1000X to pay our respects US Navy SEAL and hero, Chad Wilkinson. Many veterans and service members suffer in silence from invisible wounds.

The Step Up Foundation and CHAD 1000X bring awareness to the epidemic of su***de among veterans and help to be a part of the solution by raising awareness for su***de prevention.

Kailey Rote Matzen and Luke Matzen have been asked to participate in a fundraiser trail race called Lost Lake Run in August. This is a ~16 mile trail race out of Seward, AK. The fundraiser benefits research for Cystic Fibrosis. We are participating on behalf of Phillips Scales and Health Lab Physical Therapy and Fitness. We would be super grateful if you would consider helping our team raise funds for this great organization!

This will be our longest run with the most elevation change. Our training started about 3 weeks ago! We're excited to be able to share this running experience with Kailey's dad, Bob.
Thanks to Patricia Farris-Burroughs for the invite, for pushing us outside of our comfort zone, and for being a longstanding supporter!
Please consider clicking the link or sharing this post. If you know anyone who has been affected by Cystic Fibrosis, share this with them so everyone can feel the support.

Kailey specializes in treatment of orthopedic injuries in an active population. She applies a modern approach to physical therapy focusing on loading, manual therapy techniques and dry needling to treat high school and collegiate athletes, gym-goers, CrossFit athletes, and outdoor enthusiasts. Kailey is determined to inspire those who do not exercise regularly to find a method they enjoy to improve their health and wellness. 
She is trained in pelvic floor assessment and treatment of pregnant and postpartum women. She enjoys walking alongside them by modifying exercises, facilitating movement and encouraging a safe, early return to postpartum activity. 
Kailey played competitive soccer, completing her soccer career as a center midfielder for Loyola University Maryland in Baltimore where she studied biology and psychology. Outside of the clinic, Kailey enjoys spending time with her husband and workout partner, Luke. She enjoys CrossFit, hiking, skiing, fresh flowers, farmers markets, dogs, traveling and sunshine!

Luke is passionate about helping people find a way to incorporate healthier habits into their daily routine. He utilizes a modern and scientific approach to physical therapy that combines the principles of tissue healing, strength training, manual therapy, dry needling, joint mobilization/manipulation, and education, to create a plan to efficiently achieve your goals. You can ask him about sleep, nutrition, weight loss, stress management, or beginning or returning to exercise, if these are important or interesting to you. 
Luke has trained extensively to provide exceptional care for CrossFit athletes, runners, older adults, and those with a musculoskeletal injury. One of his greatest strengths is helping those who don’t currently have an exercise routine find comfort and enjoyment in movement.
Graduating from Creighton University with a BS in Emergency Medical Services in 2015, Luke worked as a paramedic for a year while applying to physical therapy school.  He enjoys CrossFit and running with Kailey to stay prepared for skiing, hiking, frisbee golfing, backpacking, and regular daily activities.
