Alex Gehlen, DPT, is the founder of Trivium Wellness and a physical therapist dedicated to helping people move better, recover from injury, and return to the activities they love.

Originally from the Midwest, Alex earned her Doctor of Physical Therapy degree from Saint Louis University, whose program is ranked among the top 10% nationally. Before establishing Trivium Wellness in 2022, she spent several years working as a traveling physical therapist, gaining experience across a wide range of clinical settings throughout the country.

After moving to Bend, Alex served as the Director at Step and Spine Clinic, where she deepened her expertise in treating complex and chronic conditions. Her experience there inspired her to create Trivium Wellness, a practice focused on providing personalized, movement-centered care that empowers patients to take control of their health.

Alex specializes in treating spinal, pelvic, and hip instability and uses a biomechanical approach to identify the root causes of pain and movement limitations. She works closely with patients to restore strength, stability, and confidence so they can return to the activities that matter most to them.

Outside the clinic, Alex embraces Bend’s active lifestyle. You’ll often find her snowboarding at Mt. Bachelor, mountain biking at Phil’s Trailhead, or enjoying a local coffee shop.
