Hi, I’m Jenna Lu

a physiotherapist, movement specialist, and lifelong athlete with a strong interest in helping people train, perform, and stay injury-free.

My background includes an undergraduate degree in Kinesiology and an MSc in Physiotherapy. I’ve worked with a wide range of athletes, including runners, climbers, triathletes, and Taekwon-Do competitors.

My approach isn’t just about getting you out of pain — it’s about building the capacity to keep training and performing without recurring setbacks.

My Approach

I’ve seen many athletes fall into the same frustrating cycle:
train hard → develop pain → rest → return → pain comes back.

Often the problem isn’t simply the injury itself — it’s that the body wasn’t prepared for the demands being placed on it.

My goal is to help athletes understand why something is happening and what they can do about it, so they can continue participating in the sports they care about with confidence.

Rather than only treating pain after it appears, I focus on:

  • improving movement efficiency

  • building strength where it matters

  • guiding safe progression back to sport

Background in Sport

I grew up in my family’s Taekwon-Do school, surrounded by black belts, and began training at the age of 3. I now hold a Second Dan black belt, and the martial art has shaped my understanding of discipline, movement mastery, and long-term athletic development.

Alongside Taekwon-Do, I played competitive soccer from the age of 6 through to the university level. Soccer showed me not only the physical preparation required to perform consistently, but also the mental side of sport — managing pressure, navigating setbacks, and maintaining performance over long seasons. It shaped how I view injury prevention and athletic goals, and helped me understand how confidence, frustration, and recovery all influence physical performance.

I later discovered climbing in 2016, a sport that challenges the body in every plane of movement and requires both strength and precision. Climbing deepened my interest in how the body adapts to load and how efficient movement can often matter just as much as raw strength.

I’ve always been drawn to movement mastery and technical skill. Whether practicing ball control and juggling in soccer, refining Taekwon-Do skills, learning instruments, or other coordination-based activities, I naturally found myself analyzing movement patterns and searching for more efficient ways to perform them.

This background strongly shapes how I work as a physiotherapist & movement specialist. Rather than focusing only on the site of pain, I look at the athlete as a whole — the physical demands of their sport, their training habits, and the mental challenges they are managing. My goal is not simply to treat an injury, but to help people understand their bodies and return to training with confidence
