Sean Murphy
PTA
Sean is a lifelong resident of the Pacific Northwest and loves the variety of adventures that are available in this part of the country. Prior to going back to school to become a PTA, Sean was a fitness trainer in the Portland area for 10 years. He joined West Portland Physical Therapy Clinic in 2013.
Patients appreciate Sean’s hands-on, detail-oriented approach to exercise. He has had good success in helping patients correct faulty movement patterns thereby leading to the elimination of pain and successful return to work, sports, and recreational activities. Sean accomplishes this using a combination of progressive strengthening, stretching, and self-myofascial release (foam rollers, tennis balls, etc).
