Meet Dr. Tran Nguyen, PT, DPT 👋

Tran brings a global perspective, a strong movement background, and a deeply individualized approach to physical therapy at Evolution.

She earned her Doctor of Physiotherapy from the University of Melbourne in Australia after studying Exercise and Sport Science at Oregon State University. Her career has taken her from treating a wide range of orthopedic, post-surgical, neurological, and complex conditions in Australia to working with active individuals and recreational athletes at the Nike Wellness Center at Nike World Headquarters.

Tran’s approach is collaborative and patient-centered. She combines evidence-based care, manual therapy, strength and conditioning principles, and movement-focused rehabilitation to help each person better understand their injury, build confidence, and get back to the activities that matter most to them.

She has a particular interest in shoulder and knee injuries and return-to-sport rehabilitation, but loves working with anyone who wants to move better, feel stronger, and stay active.

And these days, Tran is taking on another big role too: new mom. 💙

Outside the clinic, you’ll find her in the gym, playing golf, traveling, enjoying good food and a b**r, and spending time with her family and dog.

We’re lucky to have Tran as part of the Evolution Healthcare & Fitness team!

Train high. Live low. Perform better. ⛰️

Evolution Healthcare & Fitness is home to the only altitude training room in Portland, a 650 sq. ft. hypoxic training space that simulates elevations from 10,000 to 13,000 feet. Training in a reduced-oxygen environment challenges the way your body uses and delivers oxygen, creating physiological adaptations that can support performance at any elevation.

Altitude training may help support:

🩸 Increased red blood cell production and improved oxygen delivery
❤️ Improved aerobic fitness, strength, and stamina at sea level and at altitude
🔥 Enhanced fat metabolism and energy production
💪 Accelerated recovery
🏔️ Pre-acclimation for high-altitude travel
⚡ Increased mitochondria production and capillary density

And you don’t have to be an elite athlete or mountain climber to benefit. Evolution’s altitude training is designed for people of all experience levels, with as little as 2-3 hours per week shown to produce meaningful results.

Altitude Training Schedule:

🏔️Monday + Tuesday: 10,000 ft
🏔️Wednesday + Thursday: 11,000 ft
🏔️Friday + Saturday: 12,000 ft
🏔️Sunday: 13,000 ft

New clients can try the Altitude Training Room with a free one-hour session. No membership required.

Train higher. Adapt stronger. Join the Evolution. 🫶

You don’t go to Dr. Brad Farra Brad Farra because you want to be told to stop doing the things you love. You go to him because you want to figure out how to keep doing them. 🏃‍♀️⛏️🏋️‍♀️💪🧗‍♀️🏔️🚵‍♀️

Former Navy helicopter rescue swimmer. Alpine, rock, and ice climber. Backcountry skier. Mountain biker. Triathlete. Certified Chiropractic Sports Physician. Strength and Conditioning Specialist. And the founder of Evolution Healthcare & Fitness .

Brad has spent his career at the intersection of healthcare and performance, helping people recover from injury, understand what’s actually going on, and build the strength and capacity to get back out there.

His approach is evidence-based, rehab-focused, and built around a simple idea: getting out of pain is only part of the goal.

The bigger goal is getting you back to the mountains, the starting line, the gym, the trail, the wall, or whatever makes you feel most alive. ✨

And because recovery doesn’t happen in a vacuum, Brad works with coaches and trainers to help bridge the gap between treatment and training, with a focus on reducing the chance of ending up right back where you started.

If your goal isn’t just to feel better, but to move better, perform better, and keep doing hard things for a long time, Brad gets it.

Return to plyometrics is often started without a plan, even under the guidance of a Physical Therapist. Before starting your return to plyometrics, consult a good PT for guidance ⚠️ because, while this isn’t an exclusive list…

1. Your tissues must be in a stage of healing and strength that allows for reintroduction to dynamic movement.

2. The right number of reps and the frequency of these exercises will depend on multiple factors.

3. Monitoring your body’s response is essential to understanding when it’s appropriate to progress or regress.

4. Increases in pain, swelling, or stiffness are not a positive outcome and likely mean you’ll need to regress.

That kind of thoughtful, performance-focused progression is exactly what Nathan Evans, MSPT, CSCS, XPS brings to Physical Therapy at Evolution Healthcare & Fitness .

Nathan is a UK-trained sports Physical Therapist and Strength and Conditioning Coach with 20+ years of clinical experience helping athletes and active individuals recover from complex musculoskeletal injuries and return to high-level performance. He has a special interest in athletic hip and groin pain, hamstring injuries, ACL rehabilitation, and detailed biomechanical movement analysis.

His background includes work with Southampton Soccer Academy, Bath Rugby, The Royal Ballet, and the UK military, where performance demands and precise movement assessment are essential.

Since relocating to Portland in 2017, Nathan has focused on evidence-based return-to-sport decision-making, coaching resilient movement strategies, and rebuilding confidence for a full return to the activities and sports his patients love.

Because returning to sport isn’t just about being able to do the movement again. It’s about making sure your body is actually ready for what comes next. 💪
