Dr. Foucrier has been a treating physical therapist for 4 years, obtaining his Doctorate of Physical Therapy (DPT) from Regis University in 2011. As a graduate of two Jesuit institutions, Seattle University (Undergraduate) and Regis University (Graduate), his philosophy of practice centers on education and access to research-based treatment modalities and functional movement. He has been working with Spooner Physical Therapy since 2012 during which he’s adopted a very dynamic treatment method, which incorporates guided treatment and patient centered values.
Jeff is very passionate about International Medicine and promoting Social Justice, as well as access to skilled care for all populations of people. This has led to international trips to Neuva Rosita, Mexico in 2009 and 2010, as well as Addis Ababa, Ethiopia in 2011. Within the clinic he strives to offer comprehensive care with an emphasis in orthopedics. He has a special interest in treating myofascial pain syndromes, head-aches, vestibular dysfunctions, temporomandibular joint disorders (TMJD) and neck pain.
Jeff has undergone self-guided studies in orthopedics, which has led to an American Physical Therapy Association (APTA) Board Certification as an Orthopedic Certified Specialist (OCS). Additionally, he has received training and certification for the treatment of myofascial trigger-points (CMTPT) from Dr. Jan Dommerholt PT, DPT, MPS, DAAPM, a leader in the field of intramuscular therapy and pain management, through Myopain Seminars.
Outside of the clinic his passions include his wife Tammy, young daughter Liliana, as well as an active life-style that reflects his own love for camping, hiking, cycling, and running. Jeff has a deep-seeded affection for the ocean, as a native of Seattle, Washington, as well as the mountains after spending some time in Denver, Colorado for his graduate studies.
