Our newest Doctorial Resident, Evann Thaut, will be starting in Early 2023.

As a Colorado native, it has always been Evann’s dream to build a life enriched in various health and rehabilitation topics. This dream developed from his long-standing passion for health and wellness as Evann was first introduced to physical therapy while rehabbing a high school football injury. Evann found this experience absolutely fascinating and solidified his desire to serve as a practitioner and reliable resource for the local Colorado community.

While attending Colorado State University, he took his first step towards achieving this goal by obtaining a B.S. in Health and Exercise Science with a Health Promotion concentration. During these four years, Evann’s passion for understanding the fine intricacies of how the human body works continued to grow and ultimately fueled his desire to achieve a M.S. in Biomedical Sciences with a concentration in Human Anatomy and Physiology from the same institution.

Now, Evann is wrapping up his final year as a Doctor of Physical Therapy student at Regis University. As a practitioner, Evann values genuine, empathetic collaboration with the patients he serves. He feels that this teamwork, along with clinical excellence, is a necessity for achieving his patient’s goals.

To ensure clinical excellence, Evann prioritizes the use of effective and evidence-based examination and intervention methods. His philosophy is based on the use of various techniques, such as manual therapy or dry needling, to facilitate healing and address functional impairments such that gains can be reinforced through thorough exercise prescription. To facilitate these efforts, Evann is Level II Certified in Dry Needling and is a Certified Personal Trainer through the American College of Sports Medicine. After graduation, Evann intends to continue his development as a clinician by pursuing a Residency in Orthopaedic Physical Therapy and gaining certification as an Orthopaedic Clinical Specialist.

Outside the clinic, Evann enjoys spending time with his wife, Michelle, whom he met in high school. Together, they enjoy spending time with family and friends, hanging out with their two cats (Oliver and Stella), cheering on the Denver Broncos, and trying out the many different breweries and various restaurants that Colorado has to offer.
