Why Three Birds Wellness (FAQs)

Our clients may enter at the front door, up a small flight of stairs, located at 338 Main street or request access to our wheelchair accessible entry on the side of the building.

After checking in, you will be greeted by your Doctor of Physical Therapy who is uniquely equipped to help you with your musculoskeletal needs. Your PT will get to know you, your goals, and the unique history which brought you to our door. You will be evaluated by your Physical Therapist to determine the source of your concerns and develop a treatment plan aimed at improving your function.

It is recommended to wear comfortable clothing or bring some to change into.

We accept most major insurances in the region. Call us with your insurance information ahead of time if you would like us to check your eligibility. You may also enter your insurance information on our online portal. Cash pay options are available for those who desire treatment without going through insurance.

  • The State of Alaska is a Direct Access state, meaning you can seek out Physical Therapy care without needing a referral. However, if you have Medicaid we require a referral from your Primary Care Provider.
  • Medicare patients can be seen initially without a referral however their plan of care needs to be signed by a Primary Care Provider within thirty days of being seen, so be prepared to connect us with your PCP.
  • If your PCP has given you a referral to a different clinic, but you desire to be seen here, you have the right to request a referral to our clinic. Please reach out for assistance or any questions.

Lauren Jeanette, PT DPT was born and raised in Ketchikan and is fourth generation Alaskan. In 2015, Lauren graduated with honors from George Fox University in Newberg, Oregon and has now been working in Orthopedic Outpatient Settings for 10 years. Lauren opened her own practice in 2021 with the aim of providing  a quiet space that honors both her client's needs, and her own need for a calm pace in life.

In addition to her clinical doctorate, Lauren has advanced training in trigger point dry needling, Mulligan manual techniques for upper and lower quarter (which provides pain-free joint mobility in participation with the patient), postpartum exercise training, and Level I training through APTA for individuals with an under-active pelvic floor. She enjoys patient education, and often utilizes yoga sequencing with patients to promote joint alignment and longevity.

Outside the clinic, her passions include spending time making memories with her children and participating in the arts scene as much as possible. She loves to spend time in Nature, and participate in quiet things like reading, writing and walking. She also enjoys creative writing, storytelling, and spending time with good friends, especially those who still carry a sense of wonder at the beautiful and complex things in life.
