We are currently seeking experienced per diem physical therapist to join our team. This role is ideal for a physical therapist with a strong foundation in patient care who is looking to contribute to a specialized, supportive environment on a flexible schedule.

• Devise individualized treatment plans with an emphasis on patient-specific goals, particularly targeting individuals with hEDS, HSD, and chronic pain conditions
• Utilize advanced manual therapy techniques such as soft tissue work, cupping, Graston, and neurologic dry needling to alleviate pain and improve physical function
• Educate patients and their families on condition management and preventative strategies
• Collaborate closely with a multidisciplinary team to ensure comprehensive care
• Maintain accurate and detailed patient records using the Jane app, documenting progress and adjusting treatments as needed
• Stay abreast of the latest physical therapy research, particularly relating to hEDS, HSD, and chronic pain management
• Embrace a high degree of independence post-initial training, adept at working within a self-pay practice model

Required Qualifications

• Bachelor's, Master's or Doctorate in Physical Therapy from an accredited institution

Benefits and Opportunities

Profit-sharing Program: We believe in rewarding our team's hard work and dedication. To that end, once the team collectively reaches a specified monthly sales goal, they will be eligible to participate in a profit-sharing program. Under this program, we will distribute 20% of the revenue generated above the set goal (the overage ) among the team members. This incentive aims to foster a collaborative environment where everyone benefits from the clinic's success.

Referral Program: We value our team members' initiative and connections to the clinic. To recognize and reward these efforts, we offer a generous referral program. If a team member independently brings in a new patient for any service, they will receive a $250 bonus after the referred patient has completed their fourth treatment. This program is designed to encourage our team members to actively participate in the growth of our clinic while benefiting directly from their efforts to expand our patient base.

Health Care Stipend: We are committed to supporting the well-being of our team members. To help offset the cost of healthcare, we offer a $200 per month stipend toward medical coverage for all eligible employees. This stipend is designed to provide financial assistance and ensure that our staff can access the healthcare they need, empowering them to focus on what they do best—providing exceptional care to our patients.

Wellness Program: We prioritize the well-being of our team members just as much as our patients. As part of our commitment to supporting your health and wellness, we offer four free halotherapy/chromotherapy treatments, four free red-light therapy treatments, and one free IV therapy treatment per month after your 90-day probationary period. These benefits are designed to help you recharge, rejuvenate, and maintain your health, ensuring you can continue providing our patients with the highest level of care. Your wellness is our priority, and we're here to support you every step of the way.

Growth Opportunities: As our practice grows, there is exciting potential for part-time positions to evolve into full-time benefitted roles, offering you the opportunity to expand your career with us. However, we understand the value of flexibility, so you'll always have the option to remain in a part-time/per diem role if that better suits your lifestyle. We are committed to supporting your career development in a way that aligns with your personal and professional goals.
