Poppy exists to make performance-focused physical therapy accessible to everyday athletes.
When a completely preventable strength and stability imbalance led to a marathon DNS, I was crushed. I had tried to access physical therapy before it was too late in my training, but encountered 6-week wait times, steep concierge prices, and zero good telehealth options.
I became determined to create a better way for recreational athletes to access higher quality treatment options and avoid future injury. We've built Poppy to improve the experience of accessing care as an athlete and make it possible for physical therapy to be a regular part of your performance routine.
