IN THE SPOTLIGHT Featuring Jennifer Moore

Be Well Magazine is proud to shine a spotlight on Jennifer Moore, an independent contracting physical therapist and business owner. She has ingeniously crafted an impressive business—rooted in strength of mind, body, and soul. Born and raised in Houston, Texas, Jennifer works with clients locally and across the nation. Her passion began as a little girl, and was further inspired after suffering an injury as a student athlete. Jennifer makes fitness a priority for herself, also—working out 4-5X each week, and is especially proud to support the mental and physical therapy of veterans. Ms. Moore’s hobby of extensive reading further enhances her business, but also provides a proper outlet for this woman on the go! I was so enamored in speaking with her as she sparkles while shocking you with the depth of her work ethic and love for her family. You will be just as amazed, I am sure of it! Introducing, Jennifer Moore!

Welcome to Be Well!

WHO IS JENNIFER MOORE?

I am an embodiment of an Empress. Someone who has strong faith in God and trusts him emphatically to walk this journey of life with. For those who truly know me I am loyal to fault, and live unapologetically true to myself. I love hard, and am fiercely protective of my family. I believe the most important thing a person can have in this world is self love. If that is not obtained you won't be able to truly love another human being. I know the importance of building a legacy and having generational wealth. I respect and expect integrity from not only myself, but others as well. I'm a mother, a sister, an aunt, a best friend, and colleague with ambitions, determination, strong work ethic and an entrepreneurial spirit.

TALK TO ME ABOUT YOUR PHILOSOPHY WHEN IT COMES TO CREATING A VALUABLE CONNECTION WITH YOUR PHYSICAL THERAPY CLIENTS AND LEAVING A MEMORABLE IMPRESSION?

Creating a valuable connection with my PT clients is the foundation of our working relationship. I approach physical therapy as how can I make this individual better from their injuries, and also how can I get them in better shape so they can enjoy active daily living without pain and limitations.

I tailor each prescribed regimen specifically to each person. We all know we all have various internal as well as external ailments that can hinder the body's response to healing. So I focus on three main things: the injury, predisposed health conditions, and strength and conditioning.

Throughout each session I provide information on the body's response and I am able to tell someone what they will feel. This, in itself, helps a person feel as important as I do about getting them better, and helps them know that I'm not seeing them as a number but truly care about their well being and seeing them regain that confidence back physically; so they can enjoy life again.

We take for granted what we do on a daily basis without any thought when it comes to our physical health. But the moment the power is taken away from us within our own body, it is very discouraging and hinders a lot of our growth.

WHAT ARE BENEFITS OF YOUR BRAND/WORK THAT MOST PEOPLE FAIL TO RECOGNIZE OR TAKE ADVANTAGE OF?

I would say the benefits of my work that people fail to realize is that it is convenient for each client. I am open to traveling to my clients; some don't realize how beneficial their healing is when it is in a comfortable and familiar environment, in regards to your body's response to muscle stimulation over an extended period of time. Of course we all are used to going into a physical therapy facility and having treatment done, but go back home and sometimes don’t work on instructed care until they go back for next appointment. When rehabbing at home or in a familiar environment, I've found that people tend to progress better; and not only heal and become stronger externally but internally as well.

THE THEME OF THIS ISSUE OF BE WELL MAGAZINE IS “ALL I DO I WIN—THE BOUNCE BACK IS REAL” . DO YOU CLASSIFY YOURSELF AS A WINNER? WHY?

Yes I do consider myself a winner. Having to overcome a lot of personal adversity, and continue a dream I spoke on my fifth birthday is absolutely amazing. When others said it couldn't be done, I accomplished it. When a person didn't have the confidence in their ability to simply walk up stairs, I had the confidence for the both of us. When I have been faced with what we call road blocks and being knocked down, I have made sure that when I get up, even if it's just to take one step forward and hit yet another road block, I persevere and push through.

My life hadn't been easy mentally and emotionally due to fear, but I know what God I serve and how much I love myself. I realized that I was in my own way and vowed not to allow my past to dictate my present and future. Everyday I strive to improve the day before, to acknowledge where I'm weak and heal and work on myself so I can be truthfully honest to self motivate, as well as motivate others on a daily basis to make strides no matter what life brings. I understand the power of consistency in all aspects of life, which is the basis and foundation of success.

ALL OF US IN THE BE WELL COMMUNITY BELIEVE THAT COLLABORATION IS THE NEW CURRENCY. WITH THAT BEING SAID, WHO HAS BEEN INFLUENTIAL IN YOUR WINNING SEASON AND/OR IN YOUR TESTIMONY OF BOUNCING BACK?

I would have to say God, first and foremost. When I experience doubts and fears in my life, I remember that he promised not to leave or ever forsake me. And if I remember him in everything I do, he shall give me great success.

Second, my family. My mother, for her continuous prayers and supporting my achievements; and providing motherly constructive criticism on how I need to get out of my own way. My sister for always being so brutally honest with me that it forced me to re-evaluate a lot of my fears and to overcome them to go after my dreams head-on no matter if I'm supported or not—make it happen for myself.

Third, My circle—they know who they are—and my clients. I mention my clients because of their unwavering trust in me with their physical beings and to know in my madness comes great rewards that we all are amazed by on a day to day bases. They never allow me to feel as though I shouldn't take credit for the work I've done, but support and like that I am truly here to help and serve in order for them to physically and mentally become stronger.

WHAT IS ON THE HORIZON FOR YOU AND YOUR BRAND? HOW CAN OUR READERS COMMUNICATE WITH YOU OR INQUIRE ABOUT YOUR SERVICES?
