WELCOME TO RUNNERS' EDGE IN ANCHORAGE, AK

Are you a licensed physical therapist looking for more flexibility, autonomy, and professional growth—without the burnout? Do you want to work in a setting that values your expertise while still giving you the time and freedom to enjoy the lifestyle that brought you to (or kept you in-) Alaska in the first place? If so, we should talk.

At Runners’ Edge Alaska, we believe great PTs deserve a career that supports their passion—both in and out of the clinic. Whether you love skiing, running, biking, hiking, or all of the above, you’ll find yourself among like-minded colleagues and clients who share your drive for movement and adventure. Our team works with motivated, active Alaskans ranging from weekend warriors to Olympians, helping them stay strong and injury-free so they can keep doing what they love.

We’re not your typical high-volume clinic. Here, you’ll have the time and autonomy to provide one-on-one, high-quality care, use advanced tools like VALD force plates, diagnostic ultrasound, and extracorporeal shockwave therapy, and continue growing as a clinician with generous continuing education support.
