Ben Kevan, PT, DPT, FAAOMPT
Ben holds a Bachelor of Science in Exercise Science and a Doctorate of Physical Therapy, both from the University of Puget Sound. He further advanced his clinical skills through a Fellowship with the American Academy of Orthopedic Manual Physical Therapists, specializing in hands-on techniques to effectively address joint and muscle dysfunction.
In 2024, Ben became certified in Dry Needling, a technique that supports recovery from musculoskeletal conditions by targeting trigger points and helping reset neurological pathways to reduce pain and improve movement.
Ben is passionate about helping people move more efficiently and confidently. Drawing from his extensive education and clinical experience, he focuses on teaching optimal movement patterns and empowering patients to take an active role in their recovery. His goal is to support long-term, fulfilling activity through better understanding of the body and how it functions.
Outside of the clinic, Ben enjoys running the trails around Tacoma and spending time outdoors with his wife and three children, taking in the beauty of the Pacific Northwest whenever possible
"I’ve had 4 surgeries with different physical therapy clinics and this was my favorite. I felt comfortable and felt like I mattered to my PT which was a good feeling. My progress was as I had expected and any time I had a question or concern it was always answered and my PT adjusted. If it needed to be to avoid the pain I had I didn’t feel pressured to have more PT appointments or pressured to do workouts that aggravated my pain. Thank you for your help! I think offering stem and ultrasound for every patient will be really beneficial. Great experience overall."

"I found A2 Physical therapy was able to give me the help I needed in the exercises and cupping they gave me to loosen up my stiff joints and muscles that I could hardly move due to surgery, stiffness, and soreness. I think A2 PT are running a top notch business. The therapists that worked with and on me were extremely courteous. Molly was so helpful in my therapy and an absolute delight to work with. She got me back to 100% in just 4 weeks and my visits were 1 day a week. This was my first experience working with PT’s and it was totally a wonderful experience. Thank you A2 Physical Therapy and thank you Ms. Molly Daugherty for working with me and making my recovery and stability improve so quickly. Should I need PT again I will call you. Again many thanks."

"Dear Alika- I want to tell you how great A2 has been in helping me to succeed in getting better after my stroke. Your staff is not only knowledgeable but funny at the same time. They don’t make physical therapy seem tough; but they make it fun by teaching us the right way to stand, asking us how we are and encouraging us to reach our goals. My goal has always been to get back to “normal.” I appreciate all of your staff immensely. They are all great. You always have my recommendation for where to go for P.T."
