Upward Physical Therapy, Performance and Wellness

Upward Physical Therapy, Performance and Wellness is a Seattle-based clinic founded by Dr. Anna Friedman, DPT, specializing in injury recovery, movement optimization, and performance training for outdoor enthusiasts including runners, hikers, cyclists, and skiers. They bridge the gap between injury rehabilitation and athletic performance through personalized coaching, offering services in pelvic health, ski conditioning, movement coaching, and post-injury recovery—all delivered through in-clinic, mobile, and telehealth options. Their philosophy treats physical therapy as preventive, long-term movement health rather than acute-only care, empowering clients to return to activities they love pain-free.
