Meet Dr. Karri
Your biggest cheerleaderAs a past cheerleader, Dr. Karri West understands the unique movements and strains that affect the performance of a cheerleader. Dr. Karri’s knowledge of sport-specific rehab/ prevention, athletic recovery and whole person wellness will set your athlete up for success!
Dr. Karri’s goals are to meet each athlete right where they are and build a trusting relationship with them while she improves their performance.
We Offer Physical Therapy To:
Cheerleaders
Cheerleading combines tumbling, jumping, stunting, lifting, and flexibility. Integrative physical therapy can help cheerleaders recover from injuries, improve stability, address muscle imbalances, and protect their bodies from the repetitive demands of practices and competitions.
Dancers
Dancers require an exceptional combination of strength, mobility, balance, and control. Physical therapy can address pain and injuries while improving alignment, movement quality, flexibility, and stability—without losing sight of the dancer’s technique or performance goals.
Athletes
Every sport places different demands on the body. Whether you play soccer, tennis, basketball, football, volleyball, or another sport, integrative physical therapy can help you recover, prevent recurring injuries, and develop stronger movement patterns.
Everyone
West & Well is open to everyone in Denver. Integrative physical therapy is ultimately about helping people feel and function better. Whether you are returning to competition, recovering from an everyday injury, or simply struggling with discomfort, your care is built around your body, your activities, and your goals.
Our comprehensive services include a Redcord suspension system that is tailor-made for isolating potential strains and strengthening muscles involved in stunting and tumbling. This is a very unique service that you will not find at your average PT clinic.
Dr. Karri is also very passionate about wellness and active recovery providing tools for cheerleaders to use to prevent injury. Such as oscillating Theraguns, Normatech compression, foam roller and more for athletes and their families.
We Offer Physical Therapy To

At West & Well, We Help Denver Get Excited About Wellness
Practicing holistic wellness is a lifelong skill—and one that many young people never have the opportunity to learn. At West & Well, physical therapy is not about endless drills or boring repetition. It is about helping every client understand their body, recognize what it needs, and feel motivated to take care of it.
West & Well is more than a physical therapy center. We are a supportive community where each participant can recover, learn, grow, and build confidence. Dr. West educates every client throughout the process, encouraging greater body awareness and healthier habits that extend beyond the clinic.
By making recovery and wellness engaging, West & Well helps clients develop the knowledge, empowerment, and resilience to keep moving throughout their lives.
Does My Kid Really Need Physical Therapy at This Stage?
Kids’ and teenagers’ bodies are resilient—but not that resilient.
High-intensity sports place significant stress on growing muscles, joints, bones, and connective tissues. Repetitive movements, demanding practice schedules, and sudden injuries can create problems that do not always resolve with rest alone. We know how big sports are in Denver. But that shouldn’t come at the cost of health.
When an injury goes unaddressed, young athletes may compensate by changing how they move. Over time, this can contribute to chronic pain, reduced mobility, muscle imbalances, and recurring injuries. Physical therapy helps identify these issues early, restore healthy movement, and give young athletes the support they need to recover safely and keep doing what they love.
We’re not your typical physical therapy clinic
We’re on a mission to make physical therapy funTraditional physical therapy often means generic sessions with little sport-specific focus, limited therapist time, and no fun—keeping you sidelined from the sport you love for months.
Cheerleading has been associated with some of the highest level of injuries for young females and yet, cheerleaders receive no sport specific care or injury prevention training.
We’re here to change that.
At West & Well, we take a unique approach to physical therapy. We identify the root cause of your injury and create personalized treatment plans tailored to your cheer and dance needs. That’s not all, our full-circle approach continues with position-specific strength classes and recovery services.
Our fun, energetic sessions take place right inside a cheer gym—so therapy feels like part of your training, not a chore. Get ready to feel stronger, move better, and get the pep back in your step faster!
