Pinyon Physical Therapy

Experiencia fantástica: I made an appointment to see how to protect my arthritic knee while training for some big running adventures. I walked away with a plan that addressed many of my inadequacies and gave me confidence I would be able to finish a 40 mile run this fall.

Experiencia fantástica: I first saw Sarah with a shoulder injury that I suspected might have been a tear with my limited range of motion and pain I was experiencing. I am an avid climber and skier so I was very glad to hear that after my initial assessment with Sarah, she was confident I had no structural issues and completely fixable mechanical issues. She was quickly able to identify and some stetches to in our first session and within the first week I saw massive range of motion gains and significantly reduced pain. I have been to other PTs who just want to schedule follow ups and run through the motions each session with no real assessment after the first visit. Sarah was completely the opposite. Every followup we were continuing to measure my progress and test and restest various movements and excecises. I was also impressed with her use of mico needling to further help to isolate muscle groups and better hone prescribed stretches and excecises. Other PTs I have been to only use miconeedling as a solution to mechanical problems. Sarah uses it as a tool to further her understanding of the underlying issues. It has been about 2 months since my first visit with Sarah my shoulder range of motion is near 100%. I am back to climbing and strength training (taking Sarah's advice and easing into it with caution as to not reinjure). I would definitely reccomend Sarah and Pinyon PT if you have any physical issues, however small. It will keep you doing the things you love and you will learn so much about your body along the way. Thanks Sarah!

Experiencia fantástica: Sarah is so good!!! I came in with nagging hip pain that i've had for years and it only took two sessions for it to be pretty much gone. She takes everything into consideration when doing her evaluation and she educates you on whats going on so that you can get the most out of the exercises and treatment plan. 10/10 recommend. Thank you Sarah!!

Experiencia fantástica: Pinyon and their associates are my one-stop, most trusted source for any sort of physical therapy. Competitive athletes will love this place.

Experiencia fantástica: I’ve been lucky enough to have enough injuries that I’ve gotten to work with both Sarah AND Anna on different occasions. They’re both wizards and they’ve changed the way I view PT. I’ve had some really lackluster results with others in the past but they both seem to be able to cut right to the issue and alleviate pain. Don’t be put off by cash pay. The money you spend will save you an incredible amount of money and anguish later on. I feel like investing now has saved me so much on future copays and deductibles. Thanks ladies!

Experiencia fantástica: I have been working with Anna for 6 months recovering from an ACL reconstruction. I went to her after a previous PT just wasn’t helping me as I felt they could have. Anna stepped right up to the job and helped me to 95% recovery and I’m not even a year out from my surgery! Now, I’m not making any promises, because everyone’s recovery is different, but I am super impressed by Anna’s knowledge, understanding and ability to get me back to pre surgery shape.

Experiencia fantástica: I went to see Anna due to an overuse/IT band pain from running and she was amazing. A few months later, I’m consistently pain free with a handful of tools/exercises to help keep me that way. Anna was thorough and knowledgeable. 12/10 would recommend!

Experiencia fantástica: 6 weeks before running a marathon I started to feel some calf pain and thought for sure I’d be sidelining the race, but I went to pinyon PT and between Anna and Sarah was able to figure out the origin of the problem and run (and finish..ha) the race. Not only were they super knowledgeable about how my body works and what mobility exercises to give me, but they’re so nice and fun to be with too! I recommend them to everyone and everyone! They will give you a personalized plan to not only reach your full fitness potential but improve your everyday life too. Can’t say enough good things about pinyon. I wish I could give them more than 5 stars!

Experiencia fantástica: Sarah taught me some simple back exercises (more like movements) that solved a cronic back pain issue. And she did so with so much compassion and attention. You won't regret your time spent at Pinyon PT! Also, shout out to the Trolly building they're in, the view from their office is pretty cool and the historical significance is felt throughout.

Experiencia fantástica: Pinyon PT is an expert in targeting the often hidden source of your pain. I find great release of hard to relax muscles such as trapezius and hip flexors with the dry needling treatment (not as extreme as it sounds). Sarah is warm, calm and extremely well resourced in her ability to help manage your pain.

Experiencia fantástica: So grateful for Anna’s help resolving a chronic hamstring injury! After helping me through the injury, she also helped develop a long term strength and mobility program. I’m so happy to be back to skiing and biking pain free. Highly recommend.

Experiencia fantástica: I am so happy I found Sarah! I came to her for help with chronic neck/upper shoulder pain. I’ve tried several approaches over the past couple of years but nothing has been as helpful and sustainable as PT with Sarah. During my first appointment she worked carefully to get a sense of what was aggravating my discomfort, and explained that we might need to try a few things to really understand what was going on (which gave me a lot of hope that we could figure it out!). I really appreciate how she explains what’s going on with my body and why certain things aggravate or help my pain. She also has helped me make some *sustainable* postural changes that didn’t require a fancy desk chair by offering suggestions that I could incorporate into my workday relatively easily. I couldn’t recommend Sarah more highly!

Experiencia fantástica: I saw Sarah for chronic golfer's elbow from an acute climbing injury. I had been experiencing pain, discomfort, and weakness for ~2 years before consulting Sarah, and had tried other clinical forms of PT with little success (I'd say more "traditional", straight-forward PT). As a patient you can somewhat sense when a care provider isn't taking enough interest in your case and may be recommending boiler-plate treatment that has a low likelihood of success (especially frustrating with chronic pain where you often have to invest many many hours per week following whatever rehab protocol they prescribe). Sarah was unique in how attentively she evaluated my symptoms and how holistically she thought to address them. I felt confident that her suggestions were thoughtful, and that she'd ultimately be able to guide me through the injury. Through a variety of interventions, she did just that! None were a magic bullet, but cumulatively with time my pain and discomfort have come way down, and I've been able to perform while climbing how I want. Thanks, Sarah!!

Experiencia fantástica: I started going to Anna for pain and stiffness in my knee from running. It’d been going on for a few months and had gotten to the point where I couldn’t run anymore without constant pain. Anna spent a lot of time assessing me and very thoroughly explained to me the potential root causes for what could be going on. We started dry needling and also put together a strength training program to help prevent the injury from happening again. Within a few weeks, I was able to start running again. I really appreciate Anna’s thorough, thoughtful, and holistic approach, she is an absolutely incredible PT!

Experiencia fantástica: In just 1 visit Anna was able to identify and significantly reduce the pain I was experiencing in my hip. With her guidance my symptoms improved rapidly and disappeared within just a few weeks. I highly recommend!

Experiencia fantástica: I've had a wonderful experience with Anna. She takes a methodical, practical, and evidence-based approach to both diagnosis and treatment. I am so grateful for her expertise and insight - she's facilitated my continued ability to be physically active.

Experiencia fantástica: Sarah knows how to find the root cause of my pain/injury better than any other PT I've worked with. Her dry needling skills are second to none. I truly can't thank her enough for the care she has provided me.

Experiencia fantástica: Anna is the PT i've been looking for for years! I really loved and appreciated her approach to whole body healing and to get to the root of what was causing the problems. I've had debilitating issues with my posterior tibial tendon and she helped find the weakness in my back and core through just 1 visit. The 2nd visit was spent on creating more exercises to help strengthen my core. I saw results right away and continue to use her plan to help me each week after a lot of exercising. Will be going back to her for all my pt needs!

Experiencia fantástica: I started seeing Anna for a knee injury sustained while skiing. I worked with her for about 2 months and had steady progress throughout. Her knowledge of the body and what is needed to facilitate recovery/restrengthening is second only to her compassion. She approaches each of her clients with a holistic view, considering both the mental and physical challenges of an injury. I would highly recommend seeking care with Anna. You'll be back to doing all the things you love in no time.

Experiencia fantástica: I showed up to Salt Lake City in March struggling with lower back and sciatic nerve pain. I was referred to Dr Anna Little by a friend and she was amazing. She identified my problem quickly and gave me a few simple stretches to do. It was nothing short of amazing. I didn’t lose a single day on the mountain and my trip was much improved with the reduction in pain and discomfort. Thank you Anna and Pinyon physical therapy

Experiencia fantástica: I went in for persistent back pain and Anna was fantastic! After a thorough intake process, she explained what she surmised was going on in laymen’s terms, then explained to me what to expect with recovery. Dry needling provided immediate relief, and she gave me at home exercises to work on daily to improve my mobility. 10/10 experience, 10/10 results !

Experiencia fantástica: I recently worked with Anna to to manage back pain that's been aggravated by skiing and/or lifting. Anna was able to provide some exercises that provided quick pain relief and put together a plan to prevent future injuries. Several weeks out, I'm still doing much better. She was also considerate of my budget and worked hard to maximize our time together. I'm a big fan of the cash practice model they use because I think the quality of care is much higher than other PT clinics I've used that rely on insurance payments.

Experiencia fantástica: Sarah was the first PT I've been to for dry needling & it was a great experience! She will ensure that you walk out the door feeling a good change in your body.

Experiencia fantástica: I took my teenage daughter in to see Dr. Anna Little for an ankle injury. I love that Dr. Little spent a lot of time assessing her and didn't jump to automatic conclusions. Dr. Little helped her understand her injury, and what was safe for her and what wasn't. My daughter was the captain of her volleyball team and about to play in the state championship. I appreciated that the importance of that was factored in and not dismissed. She was able to safely play and they won! I am so glad she was able to play with confidence because she knew how to take care of herself. Highly recommend Dr. Little!!

Experiencia fantástica: Dr. Sarah was very easy to talk to and listened to my specific issues with attentiveness, Sarah’s intuitive approach and expertise highlighted problem areas that I wouldn’t have guessed were possible causes for my plantar fasciitis. Following her advice , my plantar fasciitis pain is going away, and now I know how to prevent it! Strength and balance training for life and movement!

Experiencia fantástica: I've always been a super active person (biking, running, skiing, hiking, etc.). I found Pinyon and Sarah after I was having issues with very tight psoas muscles. Sarah listened to my symptoms and helped me understand what was happening before walking me through a treatment plan. I've returned to Sarah for other needs on occasion and honestly feel so lucky to have found her practice. Highly recommend!

Experiencia fantástica: I wish I found Sarah before I decided to endure my third ankle surgery. I broke my tib/fib and dislocated my ankle in a climbing fall in 2016 and have since suffered severe arthritis and chronic pain. As a once avid climber and runner, this was a devastating injury. I've had a total of three surgeries on my ankle (with the latest being just last November, 2022) and doctors have recommended a full fusion to help with the pain. I even thought I was going to get a fusion this year. I've been in so many PT clinics through my years of ankle issues and surgeries and always felt bored with them. Going to a clinic only to be watched doing boring exercises that I could do on my own felt trivial and I was craving more personal care. In the midst of recovery from my surgery, I looked for a new PT and found Pinyon Physical Therapy. Since meeting with Sarah, I have learned more about my pain and have managed it in a way that never felt possible before. I've decided not to pursue an ankle fusion anytime soon. After so many surgeries and so much pain, I thought that I could never run again.. but Sarah has proved me wrong. I've started a new running plan with her and have been making huge progress in my ankle's abilities and strength overall. Sarah has taught me that my pain doesn't have to limit me. While the progress is slow and uncomfortable, being able to run again at all feels like a miracle. I no longer avoid activities due to fear of pain. I'm biking, skiing, running and hiking again and am more familiar with my limits than before. I continue to go to Sarah every 6-8 weeks for a revamp of goals, dry needling work, and to learn more stretches and exercises to increase the mobility and overall function of my ankle. 10/10 would recommend Pinyon Physical Therapy to anyone.

Experiencia fantástica: I'm active 5-6 times a week (hiking, peloton, skiing and biking), but my lower back became stiff and tight over the last couple years. Sarah educates me on my body - not only anatomically, but how it relates to my parasympathetic system and my pelvic floor. Motion is lotion, she says; that's sticks with me daily. Her suggested movements and dry needling treatments give me so much relief. Sarah even helped my 15 yo son ease a soccer injury. With her help, I have a whole new outlook on my day-to-day routine. Thanks, Sarah!

Experiencia fantástica: After seeing a few different physical therapists for spine issues, a friend recommended booking an appointment with Sarah. I was so close to booking an appointment with a surgeon, but wanted to try and heal my discs one last time. Sarah created a few different PT routines and walked through them with me to help me understand what pain is bad, and what pain is good during recovery. She's amazing at dry needling and teaching breathing techniques, and is overall just a great and easy person to be around. She listens, understands, explains, and helped me heal back up to 100% within a few months. She also gave me the tools to work through flair ups, which has improved my overall health!

Experiencia fantástica: Sarah is an amazing PT and human. Her knowledge base and ability to problem solve the root cause is beyond expectations. After a huge mountain biking crash, Sarah helped me understand the cause of my lingering issues, find a path to resolve my discomfort and provided me with the tools return to 100% functionality. It was a journey. If you want a professional who listens, connects the dots and provides tools to resolve the root cause, make an appointment with Sarah.

Experiencia fantástica: Sarah is wonderful. She is so knowledgeable and able to explain concepts incredibly well. She helped me understand where exactly my pain was coming from and taught me exercises suited to my needs and abilities. A++

Experiencia fantástica: I was fortunate to find Sarah after discovering how inflexible I was after a few sessions of yoga. Sarah created a stretching plan that has allowed me to do things I thought were impossible. My quality of life has forever changed. Her insight into joint movement and muscle groups with targeted exercises has increased my range of motion and allowed me to progress. Sarah cares about your specific goals, health and well-being. Her added skills of dry needling are unmatched. And the fact that she is a wonderful and enjoyable person motivates you to push yourself on your road to healing and recovery. She is the coach you want on the sideline cheering you on!

Experiencia fantástica: I came to Dr.McNurlin with hip and low-back pain as part of on-going recovery from 2 hip surgeries 15 months ago. Dr. McNurlin was incredible. Through my assessment, patient history, and chitchat, we agreed on a plan to move forward. She provided so much education about anatomy, body mechanics, and pain it really helped me understand what was going on and a different way to think about my injury and recovery. If you have consistent pain, lingering injury, are dealing with injury AND grief, or are just looking for improved mechanics and the best dry needling around, Dr. McNurlin with Pinion Physical Therapy is who you need to talk to.

Experiencia fantástica: Professional and invested in your well being! One thing that is so hard to find these days, is a medical professional that invests the time to listen and understand what you're going through as a patient. My experience working with Sarah is nothing short of excellent! So far, she has given me tools, not just short term solutions, to get me back to living my really active lifestyle as an action sports photographer. I couldn't be more grateful for the quality of care and couldn't recommend her more highly.

Experiencia fantástica: Sarah is an incredible PT. Instead of assigning stock exercises, she takes the time to form an accurate diagnosis and develop a treatment plan for your unique needs. I can’t recommend Pinyon PT highly enough!

Experiencia fantástica: Great energy, made my daughter feel comfortable while she expertly diagnosed the issue and came up with a simple, effective recovery plan.

Experiencia fantástica: I have been working with Pinyon PT for over a year now and have found my experience overwhelmingly positive. I tend to injure myself frequently - so I have been treated for two dislocated shoulders, scoliosis in my back, and a knee injury that left me with a blown ACL and a torn meniscus. I feel successfully rehabbed on my shoulder and the work on my knee has left me feeling strong enough to forego surgery at this time. My favorite part of working with Sarah is her approach to the body and how she treats each patient based on functional pattern diagnosis. She was able to help me correct my breathing patterns and movement patterns and she also helped me release several tension patterns that I had built up over decades of compensating for injuries as a child. All in all - I feel like a new man in a new body and I have Sarah to thank for that. I would highly recommend her!

Experiencia fantástica: I have been to many PTs over the years with no real movement gains or reduction in chronic pain. On my first visit with Dr. McNurlin, she identified the possible causes of my recurrent hip and back issues. By the next visit she had the root cause on lock and gave me exercises/stretches to improve my condition. Unlike other exercises/stretches I've been given, these gave me measurable results. I feel like other PTs gave me exercises that had no impact because I already had a baseline fitness level. Dr. McNurlin prescribes treatment that actually works vs taking the standard shotgun approach of throwing every possible treatment at you and hoping something helps. This made me more motivated to stick with my prescribed routines which gave me better short and medium term results. Additionally I enjoyed that she explained the basic physiological issues behind my pain/lack of mobility and how each treatment would help. I would recommend her to anyone that wants to improve their quality of life and regain the ability to do the activities you love.

Experiencia fantástica: I have struggled with a herniated lower back for about 3 years and it was getting so aggravated and annoying I almost quit my job bartending. I also was holding back a lot from snowboarding, running, yoga and even hiking because i was afraid of the aftermath. I found Dr. Sarah McNurlin initially on instagram and fell in love with her videos- she was doing moves that were weird and seem to target small muscle groups. Her experience with backs was like no other PT I had been to, she knew my symptoms and was not frustrated by them. Where as my experience with other PTs, my symptoms would stump them. and they would loses sight to hthepoint I felt helpless. With in 2 visits I was noticing a significant difference. with Dr. Sarah! She gave me basic moves that helped SO much, but I think the biggest thing that help me was how she explained things to me. She would describe what was happening inside of me and how the movements were helping in such a way I could easily visual it!.- I can't recommend her higher! After 6 sessions, I have been symptom free.I was in chronic pain and i thought that was my life but Dr. Sarah made me see that I could have a hhappy healthy back.

Experiencia fantástica: Sarah has helped me with two ankle injuries/recovery from surgery. He approach shows her knowledge and she has very respectful bed side manner. She helps you work towards specific goals and I would refer anyone to her!

Experiencia fantástica: Sarah is incredible - I was recommended to Pinyon by a friend who has seen her for various injuries for years. Her practice space is calm, private and well-equipped. I was impressed with how much time Sarah spent not only helping me find the right exercises to help me recover from my particular injury, but also teaching me about the mechanics of my body that would help me prevent injury in the future. I felt like I really had a partner in my recovery as she was always asking about my feedback, my preferences, and what I wanted to learn next, all while bringing her expertise to bear in helping me recover in the fastest and best way possible.

Experiencia fantástica: I’ve had 4 sessions with Sarah and have learned so much about my body, different ways to approach healing & recovery. She’s knowledgeable and a great teacher who wants you to understand the mechanics and freedom of feeling your functional best.

Experiencia fantástica: Sarah helped so much with helping my weird back issue. Giving me the correct stretch’s and a little dry needle, I felt better within days. Thank so much for working with your local athletes and pointing us in the right direction.

Experiencia fantástica: Sarah is an incredible PT. I started seeing her about 12 months postpartum, after some back pain started from my exercise routine. She worked with me for months to slowly unravel the mess I had created and built a plan and strategies for me to follow and resort back to anytime I noticed symptoms returning. Dry needling was also a huge game changer for me. She always explained everything in detail, answered all my questions and went above and beyond (for example, she also helped me with some postpartum care, which I didn’t even know I needed). I would recommend Sarah to anyone, especially those leading an active lifestyle.

Experiencia fantástica: This was my second time working with Sarah and she is the best!! I reached out to her with a hip labrum tear that was keeping me from running and climbing. Sarah uses a very wholesome approach--listening and understanding the issue, providing a lot of education, and incorporating both strengthening exercises and manual therapy. The thing that stands out the most in my experience is how much she teaches you about your injury, body mechanics, anatomy, etc. I feel like I can move forward with this knowledge to keep working toward my goals. I highly recommend!

Experiencia fantástica: I found Sarah thru the Trail Sisters running group on a thread talking about PT recommendations for SLC. I can say that she exceeded my expectations for my very (physically and emotionally) painful ankle sprain that I got mountain biking. I was back on skis after a month and able to mountain bike some technical desert terrain after 6 weeks. I attribute this to the hands on exercises I was taught, homework given including application of KT tape, dry needling, etc. Each session was different and she was very honest with me in her assessment of when I would be good to go and what it would take. It was really comforting throughout the healing process to have my regular sessions at Pinyon and to know I was progressing. I will continue to seek Sarah out for any physical therapy needs and can't thank her enough for making me feel confident/safe getting back out there doing the things I love!

Experiencia fantástica: Sarah is an amazing PT! I had a severe ankle/Achilles ache after a long run that persisted for days. In one visit she found a mechanical diagnosis and exercise that cleared up the pain. Most importantly though she gave me an understanding of my injury that allowed me to confidently return to running, knowing that if the pain did come back I'd be able to treat it.

Experiencia fantástica: Working with Sarah to treat my hand and arm nerve pain was a wonderful experience. I felt that her practice and treatment were individualized to my specific case and issue, and it proved to be a lasting treatment plan that helped me regain confidence in using my hands for work as well as for hobbies like rock climbing. I trust her expertise and would gladly return to her for any physical therapy needs.

Experiencia fantástica: Sarah is an amazing PT - incredibly intuitive, kind, and knowledgeable. I started seeing her after having twins and she helped me navigate both the physical and mental complexities of postpartum. Because of my regular sessions with Sarah, I was able to get my core strength back without injury or issue and I now have a really strong foundation to continue to build upon for climbing and mountain biking. I also feel like I have an even better connection to my core than I did before having kids -- something that Sarah was able to explain to me better than anyone has been able to before. Sarah is also a magician with dry needling, if that is a service you are looking for.

Experiencia fantástica: High quality, exceptional care! Sarah was recommended to me by a local running group for an Achilles issue I was experiencing last fall. As an ultra-distance runner, I was so worried that my Achilles was in such pain, thinking I might have done significant damage, and afraid that I'd have to take significant time off from training. In our first meeting, Sarah spent a significant amount of time asking questions, listening, and going through a full range of assessments. She identified an issue in my hips and lower back and connected my Achilles issues with that, explained how the two were connected, and ran through stretches and exercises for me to begin. Over our subsequent meetings, Sarah was always clear and concise in her explanations and instructions and shared how she was assessing my progress and why she was assigning the exercises that she was. The emailed instructions were extremely helpful, and I was amazed at how quickly I was back to walking and then running as normal. I was able to get back on track with my training and am feeling stronger than before, having incorporated the exercises and stretches Sarah gave me into my training. If you are experiencing pain or feeling like your injury isn't being well addressed or taken seriously by your health care provider, please please please make an appointment with Sarah.

Experiencia fantástica: Sarah is incredibly knowledgeable, kind, and flexible. I am an active climber, hiker, and backpacker, but I had been having terrible neck pain that was not allowing me to even function properly some days. I went to her for pain in my neck, and we quickly figured out how to relieve the pain and she gave me exercises to help prevent future pain. She was always patient and taught me a lot of things about my body I did not know. She was flexible with me and my schedule and I always felt comfortable reaching out to her via email between sessions. Sarah is an excellent PT and I highly recommend her!

Experiencia fantástica: I was referred to Sarah through a work colleague. Let me tell you, BEST decision I ever made. She’s a gem, really worked with me to get to the root of my issues in my lower back. I’ve suffered with low back pain majority of my life due to old injuries, those issues/pain are virtually gone. I appreciate her effort and professionalism. She makes the environment welcoming and easy. Definitely recommend her, you will not regret it. Thank you!

Experiencia fantástica: I've worked with Sarah for a few years, in person and virtually, both to manage specific running injuries and to keep my body healthy and happy overall. She's amazing! She is great at problem-solving and has been able to quickly test and identify where pain and discomfort is coming from. I always feel so much better after dry needling and manual therapy with Sarah, and she also offers really simple and effective home exercises that I can actually make time to do! We've addressed a lot of low back and lower body issues that have diminished or gone away after just a few sessions. Highly, highly recommend!

Experiencia fantástica: Sarah is amazing!! She takes time to hear you and your body. She helped me with techniques and exercises that I would of never even realized were related. I highly recommend her and already have! Thank you Sarah!

Experiencia fantástica: I saw Sarah across a six-month period working on chronic tendinosis in my elbow and a chronic IT band issue. She was very thoughtful & comprehensive in her approach & Focused on upstream impacts to help resolve the downstream symptoms (neck/shoulder for elbow; hips/feet for IT band). You definitely feel like she is problem-solving to your specific condition and working to understand what has the best impact on your body through cause-and-effect analysis. She was also able to use dry needling to accelerate some positive impacts which really helped keep me active! Would highly recommend!

Experiencia fantástica: I've seen Sarah for a few different injuries, the latest of which was a minor sprained ankle. She not only taught me the importance of strengthening the injury, but more productive ways to encourage healing in my ankle. She approaches care with a focus on educating and that always helps me feel empowered on my healing journey.

Experiencia fantástica: Sarah is wonderful! I saw her for calf pain from running. She tries her best to keep you doing what you love (I had very limited running restrictions). She tries to give you tools to help fix the problem on your own, instead of racking up sessions/costs which is very refreshing in this industry. I loved her whole body approach vs just looking at the pain area. Thanks Sarah!

Experiencia fantástica: I've had a couple visits and I'm really happy with Sarahs approach. I was working through some general shoulder pain and Sarah helped me to identify the root of the issue in my neck. She took the time to help me understand the both the cause and some body mechanics to avoid future injuries. I highly recommend her.

Experiencia fantástica: Sarah is incredible. I have worked with her as a colleague and a patient of hers on-end. She takes time to see the full picture of what is contributing to your symptoms. She never takes any short cuts. She cares deeply about every person that walks in her treatment room, and she has the skill set to do something big about it. I cannot love this girl enough!

Experiencia fantástica: My experience with Dr. McNurlin has been excellent in every way. I came in with some back pain that was ongoing for 2+ years that kept me from enjoying golf, basketball, and other activities I love. Dr. McNurlin's confidence and knowledge left me knowing I was in good hands from the first visit. She puts a great deal of effort into educating you on prevention and treatment tools to allow you to find long term success from the visits. The treatment was tailored to my specific situation and needs, which was refreshing compared to other physical therapy where I felt the treatment was generally more generic. You can tell she really cares about your wellbeing by the excitement we both shared seeing progress throughout our visits. My quality of life has been improved tremendously and I cannot recommend Pinyon enough!

Experiencia fantástica: Sarah has been my Physical Therapist off and on for almost four years. She takes the time to look at the whole body not just the problem spots. This has led to better overall healing. Also, the dry needling might be my favorite thing ever. I broke my leg 4 years ago and every once in a while the muscles need a little extra help relaxing. I love a good message but the dry needling works so much faster.

Experiencia fantástica: I’ve been to see Sarah multiple times over the last few years for various issues ranging from recovering from a dislocated hip down to just weird back and knee pains. As a competitive skier, I put a lot of thought and effort into keeping my body healthy and strong so going to an expert when my own methods aren’t enough is a key part of that. Sarah always takes a proactive and smart approach to getting back to sport. Not only helping me regain my previous abilities but also providing smart exercises that I continue to use even after the injury is healed to prevent future issues. I would recommend Pinion Physical Therapy to anyone, but especially athletes who want that extra level of individualism in their treatment plan as well as help evolving their own training techniques for sustained durability.

Experiencia fantástica: I have chronic back pain as a result of scoliosis and a fused spine. Sarah has helped me understand and manage my symptoms. She is an expert in her field and has helped me through a combination of treatments. This allows me to continue to enjoy climbing, mountain biking & cross country skiing. It’s also comforting to trust that Sarah can help put me back together if I hurt myself again. Sarah’s treatment has also helped accelerate the healing process after a caesarian section so I was able to get back to an active lifestyle that I enjoy more quickly and feel like myself again. I highly recommend her for anyone who is dealing with any kind of pain!

Experiencia fantástica: I found Sarah in September 2020. I was having issues with my SI joint and my right foot. I had been seeing 3 other PTs regularly from March 2020-September 2020, but was not seeing any improvements in my conditions. When I started meeting with Sarah, I finally had someone who was looking at my whole health picture. Over the next couple months my pain that had been present for a year finally started to dissipate and eventually go away altogether. I no longer have to take 800 mg of ibuprofen a day to get through work. I am once again enjoying outdoor physical activities. In addition, Sarah taught me tools I can still use when I have flares ups. She is an incredible physical therapist.

Experiencia fantástica: I have seen Sarah for a couple of issues over the past few months, and all of my visits have been remote. It's been a great experience! My atypical and nagging finger issue was impossible to nail down on my own, and Sarah was able to figure out what might be wrong. She was able to give me a quick and effective exercise to help fix my issue. Her approach is great; focusing not only on the issue itself, but working out stuff upstream to help prevent reinjury, etc. I would definitely recommend!

Experiencia fantástica: Sarah was fantastic! I've had chronic neck and shoulder tightness for years and after tweaking my neck while working out I was recommended to go see Sarah for dry needling. After two sessions not only has my neck pain gone away but my constant shoulder pain feels consistently better than it has in years! Sarah helped set up a few exercises and provided dry needling in a few locations. She was extremely professional and I felt very safe with her COVID protocols. Would highly recommend!

Experiencia fantástica: Sarah one of the most effective medical practitioners I've ever seen. She's helped me with various climbing injuries: elbow, neck, back, and finger issues. Most of those were resolved through telehealth alone. Not only were my injuries healed but she taught me strength, posture, and technique that improved my climbing and quality of life.

Experiencia fantástica: I've noticed a dramatic difference in Sarah's approach compared to other PT's I've visited for past injuries. She takes the time to listen and customize therapies for not only what your body needs, but what will work for your lifestyle. Highly recommend her work!

Experiencia fantástica: Sarah is fantastic! I've had neck tension for years and she's really helped me understand what's going on and tackle the issues. Dry needling has really helped (seriously, it's a game changer) and she's worked with me through really helpful exercises. Every appointment has been worthwhile; she really cares about your progress.

Experiencia fantástica: I started seeing Sarah midway through healing a back fracture. During my first visit she educated me about chronic pain which helped me have a huge mindset shift allowing me to move past the acute pain I had felt stuck with. Further visits have included education and exercises for tight pelvic floor muscles, exercises to loosen tight neck muscles that led to chronic headaches, education about completing the stress response cycle, and correction for exercises that I had already been doing. She helped me see that I had stopped breathing into my back, and coached me in re-learning how to roll over. I love my visits with her and highly recommend her services.

Experiencia fantástica: I have seen Sarah for a couple years to address issues with my feet, knees and hips. Her approach was extremely helpful in addressing chronic issues I have experienced for years! I have been able to not only reengage in all activities I love such as trail running and skiing, but my performance has improved with her help and the treatment! She is a highly competent dry needler, and I have had a lot of dry needling therapy in my days and she has been the best with her accuracy targeting muscle groups. I have gotten so much relief from the treatment. The exercises and assessment methods have been very helpful and targeted for my specific problems. Best PT experience I have ever had!!!

Experiencia fantástica: Sarah is the most intuitive physical therapist I have ever had the pleasure of working with. I came into her clinic with severe pain from my damaged abdominal muscle tissue. She was able to calm my anxiety, provide me with accurate information on my situation, and direct me on guidance on how to move my body. Her muscle therapy is unparalleled, and she genuinely cares about the emotional and physical wellbeing of her patients. It is very difficult for me to trust providers, but Sarah is one of the few I will ALWAYS come back to.

Experiencia fantástica: I saw Sarah for a climbing finger injury. I had been struggling for over a year to make progress and I'd started to give up hope that I'd climb again. However, after I starting seeing her, I finally started improving. We met virtually and she managed the challenges of remote therapy very well. She addressed the injury and gave me many strategies for building strength to prevent injury in the future. Now I'm back to climbing and very grateful. I highly recommend Sarah.

Experiencia fantástica: Sarah helped me get back on the trail after injuring my knee and foot. The best PT in the Salt Lake valley!

Experiencia fantástica: Sarah has been a true game changer for me. After seeing other therapists who told me that it might be in my best interest to pursue other sports, I found Sarah. Sarah created a plan that has allowed me to continue both water and snow skiing through a combination of dry needling, corrective exercises, and conditioning. If you are looking for a top physical therapist who will slow down and listen to your concerns, you should call Sarah!

Experiencia fantástica: Have been going to Sarah over the past few years to manage the aches and pains from bouldering and have always had a positive experience!
