Built Differently

Head to toe, hands-on, every visit. Never a copy-paste adjustment.

World Class

The same care Team USA and Ironman athletes get — for everyone, right here in Wauwatosa.

In Your Corner

A plan built around your goals — whether that's race day or a pain-free workday.

The Front Runner Experience

Here is exactly what your first visit looks like.

No crowded waiting room, no crinkly paper, no sales pitch at the front desk. Just a calm space, felted sheets, and a doctor who has time for you.

  1. 01

    Arrive to a quiet front room

    Settle in, grab filtered water, and tell us what's going on — and what you want to get back to. A race, a golf season, picking up your kids without pain: that goal shapes everything that follows.

  2. 02

    A full-body assessment

    Dr. Beth looks at your mechanics, compensations and how load moves through your body — not just the spot that hurts.

  3. 03

    Treatment the same day

    No waiting on an approved plan. Every visit includes hands-on Active Release work, so you leave your first one already treated.

  4. 04

    A clear plan you understand

    What's causing it, what we'll do, and how it fits your life — explained plainly. Care adapts visit to visit based on how your tissue responds.

Our motto

Built differently.

You've been treated before. You haven't been fixed. Front Runner is for people who want it done right — not done cheap, and not done forty times.

The typical office
  • Five-minute visits, often with an assistant
  • The same adjustment every time
  • A sales pitch before you're even examined
  • Treats only where it hurts
  • "Just stop doing what you love"
Front Runner
  • One-on-one with Dr. Beth — every visit, never an assistant
  • Hands-on Active Release Technique in every visit
  • Each visit adapts to how your body is responding
  • Treated first, plan explained second — no pressure
  • Root-cause movement analysis
  • A plan built around your goals and your schedule
The Toolkit

The right tool for your body — not one technique for everyone.

SI joint and low back pain, neck, hips, hamstrings, shoulders, tennis elbow, knees, feet and more — whether it's a new injury, a nagging ache that won't quit, or training for something big.

03 · SIGNATURE

Targeted trigger-point release.

06

A full-body functional evaluation.
