Born and raised in Kaukauna, Rachael earned her bachelor’s degree from UW-La Crosse, where she majored in Exercise and Sports Science and minored in Nutrition. Rachael continued her education at UW-La Crosse, earning her Doctor of Physical Therapy degree in 2024. She uses a range of treatments—including trigger point dry needling and manual therapy techniques—to relieve pain and restore function and mobility to her patients. Her hands-on approach is an essential aspect of her treatment philosophy, one that emphasizes educating patients about their injury in order to achieve the desired goals and outcomes. Delivering services in both clinic and industrial settings, Rachael is passionate about helping each and every one of her patients get back to the activities they love.
In Rachael's free time, she enjoys running and hiking with her family, fiancé, and dog Hixon at High Cliff State Park and in Door County.
