"Jennifer delivers a unique message to patients in pain. I would summarize the message as follows: "Pain Is Not What You Think It Is." The message is novel and important. But in order for me as a patient to "get" the message, I had to discard my old thinking about pain, and absorb a new paradigm about the topic. That can be difficult. However, Jen has unique talents that are ideal for delivering this message. For example, Jen recognized that I had to absorb the message at my own speed, so she "spoon fed" me at a pace that allowed me to work my way to understanding."

“If you are looking to work through chronic pain — and break free of it — see Jen. Jen is a unique and extraordinarily talented physical therapist and therapeutic pain specialist. Her knowledge of neuroscience and how it applies to pain is profound, as is her ability to coach and uplift her clients through their journey. I have worked with Jen for 6 months, previously having seen approximately 30 healthcare providers in an effort to heal my 7 years of chronic back pain. Our sessions focus on ways to calm down my overprotective nervous system, so as to help my brain understand that stress does not equal danger, and that I don’t need my brain to generate pain in many circumstances. Thanks in large part to Jen and her dedication to my health, I am on the path of recovery. You could not ask for a more skilled, compassionate therapist than Jen. God has given Jen the ability to help people in need and to care for them with genuine interest in their well-being. She is fully committed to helping restore function and to teach her clients how to build healthy neural connections so they can lead healthier lives. I thank God for Jen and for her knowledge, support and encouragement. As a result of our sessions, my life is all the better.”

“The visualization, practice, insight during our sessions and correspondence prepared me for my challenging court appearance. The visualization and hearing the subject's name allowed me to become desensitized for this encounter. The practice session (sometimes impromptu) assisted with being in the moment, i.e. simulation sitting in my chair in the courtroom; going through this several times was extremely helpful. Drawing on our sessions and conversations helped. I managed to get through an event that I was dreading for 10 months.
All in all, the one thing I will utilize in my next appearance, is a notebook to doodle or write in, which also has mantras/prayers/reminders that make up my values and foundations. This session (Intention Setting and Creating Mantras) helped me to slow down and draw on all the resources and tools that are available (learned) to me that without practice escapes me in the moment that it is needed.”

“Jen Uschold is an exceptional pain physical therapist who helps patients that traditional physical therapists can’t. She utilizes the four pillars of pain science - education, sleep, exercise and goals, combined with manual therapy and brain training. She now incorporates Positive Intelligence in her practice. It is an excellent tool for calming the fight or flight response that frequently causes pain flare-ups. Jen is an excellent resource for people dealing with pain.”

"Thank you for sharing with us today on the PQ call! I trained in neuroscience-based coaching, so am fascinated by the way our brain drives experiences & behavior. I REALLY enjoyed the way you presented on pain & the brain's connection. You made it so relatable- not always an easy task when it comes to our complex brains!"

"Your passion for this work is evident in your videos and in the feedback you give. And you are one of the kindest professors I have ever worked with!
I finally found someone at the VA that can probably help me sort out future issues. Colleagues were trying to help me between patients, but most have kids in sports, etc. This person should have some flexibility. And I don't tend to wait until the last minute.
I am truly humbled by how much effort you have put in to ease my mind as well as handle my technical difficulties."
