Chalin Brigham

Chalin was born and raised in Oregon; naturally, as an Oregonian, she loves hiking, biking and running with her dog, Zoey. Chalin began her academic career at Chemeketa Community College where she earned an associate of science degree with a focus in anatomy and physiology. Chalin is now completing her bachelor’s degree in Kinesiology from Oregon State University. She found her interest in the field of physical therapy following the repercussions of a car accident. Understanding the dynamics and proper mechanics of the body was something that sparked her interest and would be the first step in her career in PT! Soon after, she began working with Therapeutic Associates as an exercise specialist in Salem, getting to work primarily with patients recovering from work injuries. After a year and a half, she transitioned to our Newberg location where she earns experience working with different specialties.

She enjoys working with patients on a daily basis, helping them navigate challenging times and celebrating their victories with them. She enjoys helping individuals get back to doing what they love most, the things that make them who they are. Chalin is also obtaining her certification in personal training to help individuals grow and help build a foundation to better aide her future patients.

For graduate school, Chalin plans to travel out of state to earn her Doctorate in physical therapy and hopes to persue a career with a specialized focus in sports rehabilitation and athletic therapy.
