Meet Janine
"I am fascinated by the way the human body operates and strive to maximize your body's potential and performance." - Janine
Janine joined THE Downtown Sports Clinics in 2015, and in addition to treating patients, has been the clinic director of both downtown locations since 2021.
Janine is a “Sports Fanatic + Mobility Nerd” who loves to be active, playing competitive soccer and golf, in addition to working out, cycling, running and hiking. Janine played competitive basketball and softball and as a high-level athlete, she recognizes your drive to compete, and the frustration of being on the sideline and the challenge of returning post injury.
After 15+ years of clinical experience, she designs a treatment plan to match your goals. Her expertise and skills include manual therapy, needling (IMS and acupuncture), vestibular rehabilitation, concussion management, and functional movement analysis. Further certifications in FR® (Functional Range Release) Spine, as well as a FRC® (Functional Range Conditioning). Janine, uses the science in every rehabilitation program.
While looking at how the entire body works together, Janine has a special interest in neck and shoulder injuries as well as the foot and ankle complex. She has completed training unique to golfers through the Titleist Performance Institute Medical Professional training, which helps her bring a high level of care and unique perspective to her treatments.
With you, she determines the best treatment approach for your long-term health and activity.
I see Janine Ankenmann at TDSC to help me recover from a motor vehicle accident. She's professional, diligent, responsive, empathetic, and, above all, knowledgeable. TDSC came highly recommended from colleagues. I did well to follow that advice: my experience has been consistently good, despite complex injuries and a lot of pain. Janine clearly has significant expertise and broad experience. I trust her. Janine, thank you for your excellent therapy to my back, neck, and jaw. - Josh J., 38
I worked with Janine as she was recommended by my physiotherapist. Janine's professional approach and excellent knowledge on concussion and post-concussive symptoms allowed her to identify the issues and prescribe treatment protocol and exercises that have helped me get back on track and be symptom-free. I am grateful for that and I would highly recommend Janine. - Kinga
