Job description

45-minute 1:1 appointments. No double-booking. A fully equipped strength & performance facility. Mentorship. Autonomy. A team that actually cares about getting better.

What if your next PT job actually made you a better clinician?

At Physio Performance, we're building a different kind of physical therapy clinic—one where you have the time to think, the freedom to treat, and the support to keep getting better.

We aren't looking for someone who knows everything. We're looking for a clinician who is curious, driven, and excited to keep learning.

If you want to spend your career doing more than following protocols, we'd love to meet you.

WHY PHYSIO PERFORMANCE?

You won't be seeing patients every 15 minutes or handing out the same exercise sheet to everyone.

You'll have 45-minute, one-on-one appointments where you can actually evaluate, treat, educate, and coach.

• Manual therapy
• Movement analysis
• Return-to-sport programming
• Whole-body movement assessment

And you'll have access to a fully equipped performance space with barbells, kettlebells, squat racks, Pilates Reformers, and more.

We believe strength belongs in physical therapy.

WHO YOU'LL WORK WITH

We treat a mix of active adults, athletes, and youth throughout Tacoma and the South Sound.

You'll work with patients who want to get back to running, lifting, competing, playing, and living without limitations.

• Evaluate and treat orthopedic and sports-related conditions
• Develop individualized plans of care
• Use manual therapy and exercise to drive meaningful outcomes
• Coach strength and movement during PT sessions

• Participate in mentorship, case discussions, and continuing education
• Continue developing your clinical reasoning and expertise

• AI-assisted documentation through Prompt EMR
• Fully equipped strength and performance facility
• Opportunities to coach small-group strength classes, if desired
• Potential opportunities to work with the Tacoma Stars professional indoor soccer team
• Opportunities to attend the Vigor Business & Fitness Summit, The Real Coaches Summit, and other PT, fitness, and performance events
• Community outreach, networking, and professional development opportunities
• Flexible scheduling with full-time and potential part-time options
• Total Compensation Package: ~$102,000-$132,000
• Performance-based bonus structure (full-time employees)
• Simple/Roth IRA with matching contributions – immediate access upon
• $2,000 annual continuing education reimbursement
