About Ninja Physio
Dr. Lily Yu PT, DPT, CSCS
Dr. Lily became interested in physical therapy when a PT helped her recover from a knee injury while training for a half-marathon in college. After getting her DPT, she worked at different facilities across the country, which helped her see the shortcomings that contribute to sub-par results in the healthcare system. She also realized that in order to have a big impact, she’d need to start her own practice, so she and Hippy started Ninja Physio.
Her athletic endeavors include a marathon, several half marathons, obstacle course races (OCRs), CrossFit, calisthenics, acroyoga, and, bouldering. She knows first-hand the physical demands of of an active life and the setbacks and frustrations of being injured. She’s continuously taking courses and certifications and staying up to date on the latest research to keep helping create excellent results for her clients.
Hippy
Hippy got his Bachelor’s in IT, and at his first job out of college, he received training in management and personal development, which catalyzed his interest in self-improvement and bringing out the best in others. He has particular sets of skills which he’s acquired over the years, that he uses to try and make the world a better place. When not in front of a computer or napping, he might be reading, weightlifting, running OCRs, or bouldering.

Many of these ninjas had pain for years or decades and were diagnosed with things like tears, arthritis, disc herniations, tendinitis, and more. Most had to scale back their life and activities. Yet here they are, back at it and better than ever. The most important thing is the desire to conquer pain.
Our Values
Strength
We believe that strength, physical and mental, is the foundation to everything else in life. The stronger we are, the better we can seek mastery, serve others, and ultimately maintain our freedom. The stronger we become, the less we have to hope things turn out favorably, and the greater our ability to shape our destiny.
Mastery
Mastery is the difference between getting something right and never getting it wrong. It’s the relentless pursuit of knowledge, skills, and excellence. By acquiring, applying, and practicing the right knowledge and sharpening our skills, we can learn to minimize injuries, stay active and mobile late into life, achieve our goals, and serve others better.
Service
Society works best when people are looking out for each other. We strive to do what’s best for our clients, team, community, and the planet we live on. Every client also empowers those around them by serving as a role model and bringing an even better version of themselves to their family, work, and community.
Freedom
By freedom we mean: 1) Being free from unnecessary pain to pursue our dreams and goals and 2) being free from dependency on pills, injections, and never-ending appointments when there’s a lasting solution. Pain from injuries restricts freedom, by necessity, to reduce the risk of further injury, but it’s supposed to be temporary; it’s no way to live.

If you’d like to live pain free and stay active, you’ll get more out of this call than most (if not all) of the other appointments you’ve had.
