Pelvic Physical Therapist

Pelvic Health, Spine & TMJ Physical Therapist.

Full-time or Part-time Purple Mountain Physical Therapy in Grand Rapids, Michigan is growing and looking for our next pelvic, spine & TMJ PT who is committed to excellence in clinical care!

We are a specialty pelvic, spine and TMJ clinic, treating adults and kids, providing PT that is personalized, comprehensive and results oriented.

At Purple Mountain PT, our PTs are clinicians at heart who love pelvic health and using a holistic & comprehensive approach to help people.

We are an out of network, cash based clinic that focuses our attention on clinical excellence and providing our patients a comprehensive approach to delivering results.

Our PTs appreciate the ability to work one-on-one with patients, to provide patients what they need and to work within a clinic dedicated to holistic care, clinical excellence and pelvic health.

If you choose to apply, please submit your resume and a cover letter detailing your skills that prepare you to join our team and what you are looking for in your next opportunity.

We work one-on-one with each patient for up to 55 minutes.

This enables us to focus on the patient and design a treatment plan using our doctoral level critical thinking and skills.

We never leave our patient during treatment so we can guide their movement, provide ongoing assessment of their needs, deliver manual therapies and implement our holistic methods to resolve their concerns.  This model provides PTs great satisfaction in your career, allowing you to enjoy treating patients without the productivity-driven, billing & insurance paperwork hassles.

Our PTs join our team because they share our value of serving patients with clinical excellence and love to work within a dedicated team of pelvic health, spine and TMJ specialists.

Our PTs value 55 minutes to work one-on-one with patients with no double booking.  We are a PT owned practice that specializes in pelvic health, spine & TMJ treatments and supports clinical skill development.

PTs come to us after working in clinics that are not 100% dedicated to pelvic health and that accept insurance.

In those settings they find that they receive limited clinical skills support, are treating too many patients, have short treatment sessions (30-45 minutes is what we are told), do not treat enough pelvic patients for their preference, are using aides / techs to execute PT-related skills, are maximizing productivity and billing and are frustrated by not being able to effectively help people in the ways they imagine to be possible.

We offer an entirely different career opportunity.
