Meet Your Therapist

Dr. Ryan Friend, founder of Body Evolution Integrative Physical Therapy, helps adults suffering from nagging aches and pains get back to an active, healthy lifestyle without the need for pain medication, injections, or multiple visits to the doctor.

Dr. Ryan specializes in manual physical therapy, corrective movement, stress reduction techniques and helping patients who suffer from chronic issues other medical professionals haven’t been able to identify or treat.

His own journey in healing both his body and mind have inspired him to bring a more holistic approach to his physical therapy practice.

For almost 20 years, he’s worked in a variety of orthopedic and other settings refining his skills. Now, he brings those skills at his clinic or to your doorstep.

Dr. Friend’s unique treatment approach relies less on traditional tests and measures and more on your response to his therapeutic approach. His personalized approach helps him identify pain syndromes and dysfunctions other doctors can miss. Through one-on-one treatment plans, he addresses the root causes, instead of just symptoms, and helps patients discover freedom from pain in less time than traditional PT.
