Dr. Jenna Swanson has been practicing physical therapy for over 15 years in North Carolina.  She became interested specifically in pediatric physical therapy after observing pediatric PT treatments at Shriners Hospital in Philadelphia, PA and Greenville, SC.  Throughout her DPT program at the University of Tennessee in Memphis, she pursued a pediatric tract and rotation to continue developing her understanding of the pediatric client.  Upon graduation from PT school, Jenna moved with her husband to the Raleigh area and began practicing in a general orthopedic clinic for her first year.  She then transitioned fully into pediatrics and has been practicing solely in pediatrics since then. 

​

Jenna has experience in the neonatal intensive care unit, early intervention, pediatric home health, and outpatient pediatrics.  She has worked with children who have a wide variety of neurologic, orthopedic, and genetic diagnoses and other conditions including torticollis, plagiocephaly, hypotonia, gait disorders, autism spectrum disorders, and gross motor delays.  Jenna loves the creativity included in being a pediatric PT and is able to quickly adapt her treatment programs to meet each child in the moment and motivate them to complete purposeful, functional, and fun activities.  Outside of work, Jenna enjoys spending time with her husband and children, being active through sports and outdoor activities, spending time at the beach, and reading.  Jenna counts it a privilege to be a part of each child and family's journey as they strive to learn and grow and conquer whatever goals they imagine.
