HAPPY MONDAY! We encourage patients to utilize the patient parking spot right in front of our clinic! You won’t miss it! It’s brightly signed! 😉

Although you can park at any open spot, the construction going on next door (formerly Tim’s Bike and Kona Bike) has blocks other parking spots which can be frustrating. You’d be lucky if you fine an open one and it is very limited now at peak hours.

🎯 Hey everyone, Mark Jamantoc here — owner / clinic director of Praxis PT!

Thought it’d be a good time to re-introduce myself since there are a lot of new faces checking out our page and our clinic is rapidly growing👋

I have over 20+ years experience in orthopedic and sports physical therapy and have literally seen this profession grow, transform, and update in these last two decades. I have worked in my home country, the Philippines, lived in Guam for a short time, and have lived in the Pacific Northwest since 2007.

I started Praxis Physical Therapy in 2024 with one goal in mind — to help athletes and active people move better, recover faster, and get back to the things they love doing 💪 Whether that’s lifting, running, riding, or competing, and…. Even as simple as walking again, our team is here to help you get to what you’re aiming for.

Thanks for following along and for supporting local sports & rehab in Bellingham! 🙌 For more of myself and my staff, visit our website Praxisphysio.com and click About, Meet the Staff.

I am grateful to have a great network of local PT clinics and practitioners! This city has great physical therapists and we all have our own specialties to bring to the table. Much respect for that!

My advice to younger therapists and interns?

BE A LIFELONG LEARNER. Learn concepts OUTSIDE of our profession. Stay open minded! Get out of your COMFORT ZONE and learn something new.

Big thanks to Andrew Brown, PT, DPT, MS, CSCS () for leading such a valuable in-service here at Praxis PT 👏

He shared his knowledge and personal experience with the VALD ForceDecks, helping us break down:
• ⚡ The physics behind force plate testing
• 📊 Why metrics matter in rehab & performance
• 📈 How to read and apply the force-time curve

These tools give us clear insights into strength, power, and readiness — so we can help athletes return to play stronger and safer.

We’re grateful for your expertise, Andrew! 💪

At Praxis PT, we don’t just guess when you’re ready to return to sport—we measure it. 💪

We’re excited to now offer ForceDecks testing, the same technology used by professional teams and sports scientists worldwide.

From ACL reconstruction to shoulder injuries, ForceDecks give us real-time, objective data on strength, symmetry, and performance—so your rehab is guided by evidence, not guesswork.

⚡️ Sports injuries happen. ForceDecks help us get you back—better, faster, and stronger.
