Dr. Brooke Nicholson

Physical Therapist

Biography:

Brooke Nicholson, PT, DPT

LOCATION: SPT – Lake Stevens

Born and raised in Everett WA, I participated in a variety of sports including basketball, volleyball, track and field, and flag football. However, competitive rifle shooting for the NRA stole most of my free time. After 9 consecutive years, I graduated with a distinguished expert badge. Since then, I have fallen deep into the pickleball craze, playing multiple days per week. When I’m not swinging my overpriced pickleball paddle, you can find me taking various fitness classes, where I’m constantly reminded of the difference between the athleticism I think I have and the athleticism I actually have. I enjoy taking full advantage of what the amazing Pacific Northwest has to offer including hiking, paddle boarding, crabbing, clam digging, and fishing. My other hobbies include watching the Green Bay Packers win (hoping this becomes more frequent), watching guilty pleasure TV shows such as The Bachelor and simply spending time with my dogs who have a deep passion for barking, and my fiancé who has a deep passion for dogs that don’t bark.
