SportsLab | Athletic Republic Portland

SportsLab physical therapy team working with a client in the Portland facility

Physical Therapist

Location: NE Portland, OR • Type: Independent Contractor (1099) • Schedule: Flexible, set by you

SportsLab is a multidisciplinary movement and rehab clinic in NE Portland, working alongside Athletic Republic's sports performance training under one roof. Physical therapy, massage, acupuncture, and chiropractic all serve the same motivated clients — people who find us because they're committed to better movement.

We're looking for our next physical therapist to join a growing, collaborative team — not to fill an empty slot, but to grow into real demand.

What You'll Do

Manage your own caseload as an independent contractor, with full control over your schedule
Provide evidence-informed evaluation and treatment across orthopedic, sports, and related populations
Collaborate with a multidisciplinary team — physical therapy, sports performance, chiropractic, massage, and acupuncture — all under one roof
Take part in Physio Big Brain, our recurring clinical collaboration session held the 1st and 3rd Monday of every month
Use objective testing tools (VALD ForceDecks, ForceFrame, SpeedGates, and TINDEQ) as part of your clinical practice

Objective testing tools available in-house: VALD ForceDecks, ForceFrame, SpeedGates, and TINDEQ.

What We're Looking For

Doctor of Physical Therapy (DPT) degree
Active or eligible Oregon PT license
Comfort operating as an independent contractor, running your own practice under our roof
A genuine interest in collaborative, performance-informed care

Compensation

Compensation is structured as a percentage of your monthly collections, with a marginal, two-tier rate — the more you collect in a month, the higher your rate climbs on the portion above a set monthly threshold. Specifics are discussed directly with qualified candidates as part of the conversation.

What's Provided

VALD technology (ForceDecks, ForceFrame, SpeedGates) and TINDEQ for objective testing
Stride EMR and Timber billing — modern systems built for how independent PTs actually practice
Credentialing support across our payer panel
Premium, convenient location with a free parking lot

Growing on purpose. Our current PT team is running full schedules — averaging 92% schedule utilization over the last 30 days. This role exists because demand is real, not aspirational.
