Logan opened Blue Rose Physical Therapy in 2021 with a general purpose and vision in mind- to have a path of greater positive health impact to the Central Arkansas Community.

At the age of 41, Jeff faced some major health issues . It was then he decided to take control of his health and fitness. After losing over 100 pounds through proper diet and fitness, he saw life through a different lens and thus discovered his love for running. This love pushed him to learn as much as he could about this sport to not only better his life, but have the knowledge and opportunities to help others improve their lives. Soon, he began his journey to becoming a coach and through his courses earned a Road Runner’s Club of America Level II Coaching Certification.

Early in Jeff's running journey, he was introduced to trail and ultrarunning where his passion only grew. He attended, taught and hosted trail running clinics around the Southern United States. Jeff also has experience running many ultra-marathons, including the Arkansas Traveller 100, which has further cultivated his new found path in running and coaching. In addition to the trail running clinics, Jeff has worked in the running industry and coached both individuals and groups since 2018.
When Jeff is not running or coaching, he enjoys reading and spending time outdoors.

Johanna Butler

I have been running since I was a kid and what started as a journey to be a fast 400m runner led down to the roads of the marathon. I am an elite marathon runner and 2-time Olympic Trials Qualifier with a personal best of 2:36:19, which I ran in Chicago 2023, 14 months after giving birth to my precious baby girl, Lucy. I specialize with runners who are under-fueling, as I am a sports nutritionist, and love helping runners build confidence and love their journey. I’m here to help inspire the next generation of female athletes to pursue dreams they never thought possible.

Why Do Running Injuries Occur?

Research shows over 50% of runners will suffer from a pain or injury this year. Some research indicates that number is as high as 75%! Common injuries include, but definitely not limited to:

IT band syndrome
patellar
Tendonitis/Runner’s Knee
Hamstring/quad/calf strain
Stress fractures
Achilles tendonitis
Plantar fasciits
And countless more

Each of these injuries come with a different set of pains and problems, but all can put a stop to your running!

Musculoskeletal injuries from running can be caused by:

Improper mileage management
Poor shoe management
Leg length discrepancy
Muscular imbalance
Pelvic anomalies
Restrictive tissue
Weakness
Improper firing pattern of musculature

Unfortunately, with injury rates being so high, injuries and time off are often a part of the game, but it doesn’t have to be! Injury prevention and remaining proactive in your health is vital in keeping your running shoes on the ground.

  Logan, the owner, has treated my wife and me a few times over the last few years, starting before he opened his own business. He and the therapists he hired are very knowledgeable. I highly recommend this place.

  This place is the one to go to for your physical therapy needs. The whole staff is nice and welcoming. The place is always very clean. I had the pleasure of working with the owner to help with back issues and my posture. He really cares about the people he sees and so does his staff. I appreciate all that the owner did to help me!

  My entire family was involved in a car accident in September 2022. Next day, I called Blue Rose to see if they could accommodate us and guess what..Best decision ever! Everyone greets you with a smile and truly cares about your wellbeing. Mr. Logan is the absolute best physical therapist! His whole entire staff is Awesome Sauce! Mr. Logan took his time and truly catered to the areas that were injured. I was sent home with exercises that could continue to keep me on the path of healing. By the way, the whole staff is knowledgeable, kind and purposeful when it comes to making sure that when we come into Blue Rose we will all be treated with respect and dignity. If I ever need physical services again, I’m definitely headed to Blue Rose! Tell Mr. Logan that Jennifer sent ya!

  I went to see Logan at Blue Rose with knee pain that threatened my goal to run my first half marathon at 57. After the first visit, I felt well enough to continue my training, and I just got better and better. The race was last weekend, and it was everything I wanted it to be. If you are not feeling like your best self, RUN (or walk or whatever you have to do) to see the folks at Blue Rose so you can get back on the right path!

  I highly recommend Blue Rose Physical Therapy if you want to get the most effective physical therapy for any kind of injury. Logan was incredibly knowledgeable and helpful in identifying my pain points on day 1 and quickly helping me regain my muscle movement with none of the pain after an arm injury. I won't choose any place but Blue Rose for PT again :)
