Great morning at our favorite neighborhood school University of Puget Sound, DPT Job Fair!

Excited for the next generation of PTs. 💚

We love having clients who feel like family. 💚 Rhonda and Martha are definitely two of them! These two train together in our gym with Kristi (in the middle), and Rhonda also comes to us for physical therapy.

Every spring, these three also help put together the kids’ raffle bags for our MS 5K fundraiser. They’re just… the best!

We’re thrilled to welcome Johnny Walker-Whitmore! 👋
A third-year DPT student at UW, Johnny is completing his clinical rotation with us through mid-December.

A Tacoma native and former soccer player at the University of Puget Sound, Johnny graduated with a degree in Exercise Science in 2023.

His interest in PT began after breaking his femur as a kid and going through rehab himself. He enjoys getting to know his patients, hearing their stories, and helping them get back to doing what they love.

Outside the clinic, you’ll find him playing soccer, reading mystery novels, or spending time with family.

We are so happy you are here Johnny! Be sure to say hello and give him a warm welcome when you see him around A2. 💚

Is dry needling right for you?

Dry needling can be helpful for those stubborn areas that just don’t seem to loosen up — tight muscles, recurring knots, neck and shoulder tension, low back or hip pain, headaches, and sports-related soreness.

It’s not the answer for everything, but for the right person it can be a really useful tool to decrease pain and muscle tension and help you move better — especially when we combine it with strengthening, mobility, and figuring out why the area keeps getting irritated in the first place.

Curious if it might help? Ask us at your next visit.🪡

Today we’re celebrating 5 YEARS 💚 of Ben at A2 Physical Therapy.

Over the last five years, Ben has cared for a WHOLE LOT of people, made countless patients feel seen and heard, brought his singing 🎶 positive energy ☀️ and humor into the clinic, and become a huge part of what makes A2 feel like A2.

These photos only capture a small piece of it — the patients that adore him, students he’s mentored, teammates, community events he’s made happen, laughs, and relationships built along the way.

Ben, we are proud you have chosen A2 for your work family. We love the way you care for people, the way you show up for this team, and the impact you’ve made on the community. So very GRATEFUL 🙌🏽

Happy 5 years, Ben! 🖤
