Our mission is to deliver personalized, high-quality care in a 1-on-1 setting—empowering our clients to move, train, and live better.

We don’t chase numbers or volume—we focus on results. If you’re looking to break away from the burnout of traditional high-volume PT clinics and want to build real relationships and create real change with your clients, you’re in the right place.

• Build long-term relationships with active individuals in the Scottsdale community
• Create and implement customized rehab and performance plans
• Educate, empower, and inspire clients through clear and effective communication
• Collaborate with a tight-knit, forward-thinking team
• Contribute to a culture of continual learning, growth, and excellence

What We’re Looking For:

• Doctor of Physical Therapy (DPT) from an accredited program
• Licensed (or license-eligible) in Arizona
• Strong knowledge of strength and conditioning principles
• Excellent communication, interpersonal, and listening skills
• Confident working with a range of active individuals: from runners to weightlifters, golfers to pickleball players
• A positive, empathetic, and growth-minded attitude
• Eagerness to grow professionally and personally in a supportive, innovative setting

Bonus Points For:

• Prior experience in a cash-based or boutique performance clinic
• Familiarity or personal experience with running, weightlifting, golfing, or pickleball
• Certification in strength and conditioning (CSCS or equivalent)

What We Offer:

• Full-time salaried position with competitive pay
• Flexible schedule and autonomy
• 1-on-1 treatment model (no double-booking or insurance headaches)
• Mentorship and support from experienced performance PTs
• Continuing education opportunities and support
• Tons of room for personal and professional growth
• A fun, supportive, and athlete-minded culture
