A Little About Us:
At MovementX, we believe that empowered providers can empower their patients. That is why at MovementX, we’re doing things differently.
Our journey began by revolutionizing traditional outpatient physical therapy, creating an out-of-network model that offered unparalleled quality of care to patients and empowered providers with better compensation, autonomous schedules, and reduced burnout. While our out-of-network model thrives, we are committed to balancing accessibility and equality of care for all.
A pivotal moment arrived in 2021 when MovementX partnered with a local county jail. This unique opportunity allowed us to uphold our core values by serving a population that otherwise couldn't access our high-tier physical therapy services. What began as a passive partnership quickly grew, as we recognized the profound impact musculoskeletal care could have within correctional facilities.
Empowered by a strong referral network, innovative technology, and an engaging team of colleagues, MovementX providers can achieve their full potential as clinicians while giving back to those in need.
- Our Mission: To help people move their best so they can live their best

Physical Therapist Jobs in Oregon: Frequently Asked Questions
How do you become a physical therapist in Oregon?
You must hold a Doctor of Physical Therapy degree from a CAPTE-accredited program and pass the National Physical Therapy Examination before applying to the Oregon Physical Therapist Licensing Board for licensure. The Board reviews your transcripts, examination scores, and a completed application before issuing your Oregon license. Oregon does not participate in the PT Compact at this time, so out-of-state therapists must apply for a standard Oregon license rather than endorsing through a compact agreement.
How much do physical therapists make in Oregon?
Physical therapists in Oregon earn a median of about $103,510 a year, based on May 2025 Bureau of Labor Statistics wage data, ranging from around $79,440 for the lowest 10% to over $133,950 for the top 10%. Pay rises with experience, specialty, and employer.
Which companies hire physical therapists in Oregon?
Employers hiring physical therapists in Oregon right now include HiredFirst, Regency Pacific, and Avamere, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of August 2026. Oregon's mix of large academic medical systems, regional hospital networks, and independent outpatient orthopedic groups means consistent openings appear across both urban centers and smaller communities throughout the state.
Which Oregon cities have the most physical therapist jobs?
Portland, Bend, and Eugene have the most physical therapist openings in Oregon right now. Portland drives the largest share because OHSU Health, Providence, and Legacy Health all operate major rehabilitation departments there, while Salem and Eugene benefit from regional hospital systems and a growing outpatient clinic market serving surrounding rural communities.
Are there remote physical therapist jobs in Oregon?
Yes, but they are rare. Physical therapy is inherently hands-on, so the vast majority of roles require in-person patient care. About 0% of physical therapist openings tied to Oregon are remote or hybrid as of August 2026, and those positions are almost entirely telehealth-based evaluation or case consultation roles rather than direct treatment positions.
How can I get hired as a physical therapist in Oregon with little or no experience?
The most realistic entry path is applying to new-graduate clinical residency programs, with OHSU Health and Providence Health and Services both running accredited orthopedic and neurological PT residencies that are open to recent graduates. Candidates who completed clinical rotations at Oregon facilities have a clear advantage when applying there directly. Working first as a physical therapy aide or rehabilitation technician at a large Oregon clinic or hospital system is also a common lateral move that builds local references and familiarity with a department before a full PT role opens.
Where can I find and apply to physical therapist jobs in Oregon?
You can find and apply to physical therapist jobs in Oregon on Migrate Mate, which lists current openings across the state. Search the listings for roles that match your specialty and location, then apply directly to the employers that fit.
