Jaime Oppegaard

Dr. Jaime Oppegaard, DPT

Jaime received her Bachelor of Arts degree in Psychology from the University of Minnesota Moorhead, in Moorhead, Minnesota, in 2002 and was inducted into Psi Chi National Honor Society. She was initially exposed to physical therapy after her father underwent a total hip replacement. Since the surgery did not fare well, the surgical team argued that he would not be able to return to work for three months. After only five weeks of physical therapy, he was able to fully return to his occupation. Jaime was astonished by the success that her father had experienced through physical therapy and wanted to be a part of a profession that fueled not only her passion, but also would give others their life back. Dr. Oppegaard graduated from The College of St. Scholastica physical therapy doctoral program in Duluth, Minnesota. She began practicing physical therapy at Precision Physical Therapy in June of 2009.

Currently, Dr. Oppegaard, practices at our south office at the Apex center in Arvada, Colorado and is certified in functional dry needling, which has been a great adjunct with traditional manual therapy techniques as it allows her patients to rehabilitate more quickly. In 2018, She was accepted to a position with Kinetacore, now Evidence in Motion (EIM), as an Assistant Instructor, an education group that provides specialized training to physical therapists throughout the United States and Canada in the evolving practice of dry needling. Dr. Oppegaard frequently treats chronic conditions with traditional physical therapy models that focus on retraining the brain. Additionally, she is certified in fitting for custom orthotics through Sole Supports, Inc. and has added video gait analysis to her practice, which allows for diagnosis and treatment of various running injuries. The Apex center allows Jaime to provide aquatic therapy for patients with orthopedic and neurological conditions that make regular exercise painful and difficult on land against gravity. She often coordinates health and wellness programs with the personal training staff for those patients who want to continue with an exercise program post rehabilitation. Jaime is a "hands-on" manually based therapist who is able to individualize treatment based on the patient's specific needs and goals. Dr. Oppegaard's background as an athlete allows her to realize the importance of returning to an activity and/or sport safely and effectively.

Jaime resides in Westminster, Colorado with her husband, Chad, her son, Braxton, and her silver lab, Izzy. She enjoys the great outdoors, hiking, camping, beach volleyball, yoga, skiing, and traveling.

His sense of humor has gotten me through some pretty painful appointments!"

Jenna grew up in Broomfield, Colorado, and attended Boise State University, where she graduated with a Bachelor of Science in Kinesiology with an emphasis in Exercise Physiology in 2014. While at Boise State, she ran collegiate cross-country and track. Due to injuries she sustained while running collegiately and after rehabbing at Precision Physical Therapy, Jenna decided to pursue becoming a physical therapist and help others rehabilitate their injuries as well. She then attended Regis University, where she graduated with her Doctor in Physical Therapy (DPT) in 2017. Following her education at Regis, she completed the Orthopedic Certification through Evidence in Motion (EIM) and received the distinction of Orthopedic Clinical Specialist (OCS) in 2019. She has also completed the APTA Pelvic Health Level 1 and Intrapartum, Fundamental, and Advanced Topics of Pregnancy and Postpartum Physical Therapy courses and is currently working toward a Certificate of Achievement in Obstetric Physical Therapy from the Pelvic Health section of the APTA.

Jenna has a passion for orthopedics, sports, obstetric, and pelvic health specialties. Whether it is due to injury or pregnancy, she loves empowering and helping patients return to the activities they enjoy most.

She recently returned to the Broomfield area to be closer to family after starting her career working in orthopedics, sports, and pelvic health in Oklahoma. She enjoys running, skiing, and watching the Oklahoma Sooners football team and Denver Broncos with her husband and daughter.

Jenna is a “knee whisperer”. She listened to me about my knee pain and gave me reasonable exercises to do. She calmed my knee pain substantially on the first appointment and I am no longer contemplating double knee replacement surgery that Dr #1 recommended. Dr #2 recommended physical therapy and that suggestion changed my life. So glad I found Jenna at Precision Physical Therapy. Jenna has me able to walk comfortably again, no surgery!

In his spare time, Ernie enjoys playing golf and softball, fishing, running, playing guitar and spending time with his wife and two sons.

“Having been a family doctor in Boulder County for more than 40 years, I have referred a great number of patients to physical therapists. The qualities most patients and I desire in a P.T. consultation are proficiency and a genuine competency for addressing symptoms and working toward resolution of problems. It is imperative for a quality therapist to recognize if the patient's particular problem needs referral to another specialist. In my opinion, 'Ernie Q' possesses these attributes more than any 'other' physical therapist in Boulder County.”

Dr. Howard Wolf, Family Practice Physician

“Ernie is a physical therapist with whom I have worked closely for almost my entire nine years of experience in Colorado. My office has referred patients to him with almost every conceivable orthopedic problem. I do not recall one patient who was not enthusiastically satisfied with his treatment, his professionalism, and his attentiveness. He provides me with follow-up, literally on a daily basis, which makes my work quite a bit easier. He is without a doubt one of the most exceptional physical therapists I have had the privilege of working with.”

Jon M. Erickson, M.D., Orthopedic Surgeon

“Primal Reflex Release Technique™ is an excellent primary or ancillary modality to help patients resolve symptomatology which resides in the body as a result of unresolved trauma and the resultant dysautonomia. I have recommended PRRT™ to clients, friends, family and colleagues and I have experienced this new form of therapy from Ernie Quinlisk, P.T. on several occasions with good results.”

John R. M. Day, M.D., Boulder, CO

“As a family practice nurse practitioner who incidentally suffers from chronic back pain, I feel very fortunate to know Ernie. From him, I have gained valuable knowledge and learned techniques to lessen my personal daily pain and help prevent exacerbations. As a medical provider, I am happy to have someone to whom I can refer my patients, knowing that they will receive attentive analysis, treatment and education. His dedication to helping people ease pain and become more functional enables them to enjoy life on a higher level. Ernie has gone beyond his excellent traditional physical therapy skills and is currently researching, teaching and practicing Primal Reflex Release Technique. Bravo to Ernie for taking a big step beyond traditional methods to better provide for those who suffer from pain!”
