Pain-free climbing is a click away.
Personalized rehab and recovery from a doctor of physical therapy who understands climbing injuries.
“I’m as passionate about rock climbing as I am about creating tailored recovery programs that can help every individual return to the sport stronger than ever.
In the clinical setting, I’ve spent the last decade treating athletes from all backgrounds. This diverse experience is backed by dual advanced specializations in sports and orthopedics, a rare combination in the physical therapy field.”
— Dr. Jason Hooper, PT, DPT, OCS, SCS

In-person appointments are held at my office at The Wall Climbing Gym. Initial appointments can be scheduled for either 60 or 90 minutes, depending on the number of body parts involved or the complexity of your case.
My goal is to provide you with a comprehensive, start-to-finish plan. There are two ways we can accomplish this:
Standard recovery plan: a complete recovery program, meticulously curated with loads of information and answers to all your questions via google sheets or documents.
Enhanced recovery plan: all the benefits of a standard recovery plan, but all of your exercises/training/treatment is housed in slick mobile app for ultimate convenience for your recovery journey. The app will guide you through sets, reps, frequency, and timing along with video demonstrations. It'll even track your progress for you!
Whichever route we take, I aim to equip you with everything you need in just one session.
This commitment to thorough care is why my appointments may be more expensive than some others. However, when considering the value of receiving complete and effective treatment in a single visit, it is truly a worthwhile investment.
NOTICE: My office is located upstairs and can only be accessed via stairs. If you require accommodations due to mobility limitations or other accessibility needs, please contact me in advance so we can discuss alternative arrangements.

Training plans offer ongoing expert guidance for anyone looking to optimize their performance, build strength, prevent future injuries, or need help breaking through a plateau.
If you’ve experienced an injury in the past and are now pain-free—but remain unsure how to safely return to high-intensity training on your own—this program is built for you. Through a sleek, user-friendly app, you’ll have 24/7 access to your custom exercises, HD videos, and training schedule. Most importantly, you’ll have a direct line to Dr. Jason Hooper to answer questions and provide feedback as you progress. You can even upload videos here to review form on specific exercises to make sure you’re performing them correctly.
The program starts with twice-monthly follow-ups to dial in your training and adjust your plan. Once your routine is locked in, you have the flexibility to move to a Maintenance Tier, choosing between continued monthly follow-ups or continue app access to track your data and stay in communication with Jason.

Ultrasound imaging is a valuable tool for assessing finger injuries in rock climbers. I currently offer ultrasound services for hands and fingers.
It is often a standard part of your evaluation if it is determined to be appropriate in fully evaluating your issue.

While I understand the importance of insurance for many individuals, my choice to operate outside the traditional insurance model allows me to provide a higher quality of personalized care.
By not accepting insurance, I can dedicate more time and resources to each client, ensuring that treatments are tailored specifically to their needs without the constraints and limitations often imposed by insurance companies.
This approach enables me to focus on delivering comprehensive and effective care, ultimately leading to better outcomes for my patients.
I also create the best possible recovery plan I can which often provides individuals all the tools they need in just one session!
If you’re uncertain about the value of this model, please check out the testimonials above!

While I am an out-of-network provider and do not bill insurance directly, many clients receive partial reimbursement for their sessions through their out-of-network benefits.
The Process: You pay the full fee at the time of your appointment. Upon request, I will provide you with a Superbill (an itemized medical receipt) that you can submit to your insurance provider’s member portal for potential reimbursement.
California Residents Only: Per state licensing regulations, Superbills for Physical Therapy can only be provided for patients located within the State of California at the time of service.
-
My services are eligible for payment through Health Savings Accounts (HSA) or Flexible Spending Accounts (FSA). If you have an HSA or FSA, you can use these funds to pay for your appointment when booking.
If you need any documentation to support your HSA or FSA claim, I can provide a “Superbill” upon request. Be sure to check your plan’s guidelines to confirm eligibility for the specific services you're booking.

For those interested in our Recovery Blueprint programs, this is the perfect starting point to figure out which program is right for you. This type of appointment is specifically designed to lower the barrier to entry to injury recovery for climbers, and as such it does not include extended time for extra questions or creating a personalized treatment plan (if you need that, consider booking a standard PT appointment)
