Waymaker Physical Therapy was founded because we saw patients not getting the care they deserved. When people get to the point of seeking out help, it’s often because something is majorly affecting the quality of their life. Pain and function are multifactorial meaning that many things factor into why a person is unwell. We at Waymaker Physical Therapy understand that a person needs more than a short 15min session with their PT to begin peeling back the layers of what drives their pain.We believe that patients deserve one-on-one care with a trained professional who sees them through their entire course of rehab. We also believe that insurance companies and medical systems should not dictate a patient’s treatment.

Although we at Waymaker Physical Therapy strive to lead you on the path towards healing, there is only one true Waymaker and Healer.

John 14:6 - Jesus said to him, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the father except through me.”

It is through the endless love and grace of Jesus that we are able to provide our services to you. Our shortcomings and inequities are not a measure of His goodness, power, or love, but instead evidence of how much we all need Him.
