Dr. Sarah McClellen

Sarah earned her Bachelor of Science in Kinesiology with a concentration in Dance Science from Texas A&M University, where she combined her love of ballet and modern dance with the education needed to understand and treat dance-specific injuries and movement impairments.

Before pursuing her doctorate, she gained valuable experience working in management roles in both medical and fitness settings, providing opportunities to work with diverse populations across a wide range of abilities.

Sarah went on to earn her Doctorate in Physical Therapy from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill—one of the most distinguished programs in the country. During this time, Sarah studied under renowned faculty, engaged in research on patient education and imaging, and deepened her passion for helping people gain self-sufficiency, rather than dependence, through education and relationships.

Sarah enjoys treating patients of all ages and addresses a wide range of conditions, including both orthopedic and neurological dysfunction. Sarah’s love for PT, people, and learning is constantly growing. Sarah is also a certified personal trainer and has taught reformer Pilates for 2 years. Currently, she is pursuing several certifications to expand her expertise and professional network.

Outside of work, Sarah enjoys exploring the outdoors with her husband and daughter, hiking, weight lifting, fly fishing, and sewing.

We’d love the chance to get to know you and see how we can support your journey!

Testimonials

  • Chronic Hip Pain

    “Sarah is both skillful and intuitive. We practiced exercises and hands-on-adjustments that I had never experienced before. Using the exercises she gave me, I noticed a significant reduction in the pain in my hip. Her approach is holistic—she treats her patients with more than just exercise, integrating nervous system retraining as well. This empowered me to explore my chronic pain from multiple perpectives and make meaningful progress.” — Anonymous

  • Post-Operative Ankle Rehab

    “Sarah is very professional and very well trained in the Physical Therapy field. My ankle improved after every session. She is very personable and made the sessions fun!” — Anonymous

  • Chronic Neck Pain

    “I have had neck pain for a few years and have gone to several physical therapists for treatment. I appreciate the relief I received but have been delighted with Sarah at Sage. Her knowledge is helping bring relief and I am thrilled with the one-on-one therapy. The warmth of her studio and lack of interuption causes me to relax and heal. I highly recommend Sarah.” — Anonymous

  • Return to Pain-free Run/Activity

    “Sarah McClellen, DPT has assisted me with several issues including:
    Weak Gluteus Medius resulting in instability while running leading to knee and lower back pain. Her evaluation was thorough and her suggested therapies were tailored to my needs and age. The problem is gone!
    Recurring “tennis elbow” (fore-arm soreness and weakness) associated with repetitive exercise and work motions. Treatment included rest and later tailored strengthening as well as advice on how to not injure in the future.
    Given that I tend to injure myself with many of my activities and exercise, Sage Physical Therapy & Wellness will be my first choice for remediation, and maybe even prevention.” - Anonymous

Wondering if you need PT? The truth is… not if, but WHEN, and it depends. It depends on how long you’re willing to live with your current limitations. It depends on your goals, your motivation, and how your daily life is being impacted.
