About Us

About

Our Mission

At PNW our goal is to enable people to reach their highest level of ability through positive connections, continuing education and progressive rehabilitation. We believe in a higher moral and ethical standard of care with a passion for life long learning and service to community.

Our Clinic

PNW PT started in 2018 because we wanted a clinic that focused on our community, our patients and our employees. In the current healthcare environment where patients and employees are falling second to corporatization and profits, we wanted a change. Our philosophy is based on the Servant Leadership Model, which states that leaders are those who continuously strive to be trustworthy, self aware, humble, empowering and community builders.

We believe in performance-based rehab focusing on functional movements, manual therapy and therapeutic exercise. We believe the field of exercise science is the foundation of quality rehab and by adding specialized manual therapy techniques one will achieve their highest level of success.
