Your Trusted Physical Therapy Partner in Washougal, WA
Founded in 2008, Washougal Sport and Spine is an independent, privately-owned physical therapy practice rooted in community values. Our journey began with a commitment to personalized care, growing from a single therapist to a team of four PTs and five support staff. We prioritize hands-on treatments and 1:1 care, ensuring patients receive consistent attention from the same licensed therapist at every visit. Our approach focuses on equipping patients with tools for long-term recovery, minimizing repeat visits. Over the years, we've built lasting relationships through word-of-mouth referrals and doctor partnerships, relocating to our current space in Washougal Town Square in 2013.Community involvement remains central to our mission, with team members dedicating hundreds of hours annually to local causes, particularly student athletes. We pride ourselves on fostering trust through transparency, flexibility, and a genuine dedication to patient well-being. Our success stems from patient recommendations and a shared belief in active participation in health recovery. We continually strive to innovate while maintaining the personalized touch that defines our practice.
