Tyson L. Herrick, DPT

Tyson Herrick, DPT, a physical therapist who specializes in orthopedic physical therapy at Intermountain Health's Payson Clinic in Payson, Utah. He focuses on treating orthopedic injuries and helping patients get back to the activities they love.

Tyson comes from a family of school teachers and coaches and planned to follow that path himself. That changed when he fell in love with anatomy while studying at BYU. Physical therapy let him combine that new passion with his love of staying active, teaching and coaching. Today, he enjoys teaching patients about their bodies, helping them set clear rehab goals and building a personalized plan to get them back to their desired level of activity.

Tyson treats patients of all ages with many different goals. As a former baseball player and wrestler, he especially enjoys working with athletes who want to return to their sport. He's also an active weightlifter, so his rehab approach focuses heavily on strengthening and exercise.

Away from work, Tyson loves spending time with his wife and three kids playing games, watching movies, hiking and having fun. He plays pickleball whenever he can, plays on a family city-league softball team and goes to as many BYU Cougars football games as possible.
