Mission
The PHYT Collective is dedicated to rebuilding and building lifelong athletes, fitness enthusiasts, and fitness professionals.
We keep you performing at your highest potential & living pain-free.
The Concept
The PHYT Collective is a physical therapy clinic specializing in providing care to the lifelong athlete & boutique fitness client. At our foundation, we are a physical therapy practice. However, the PHYT Collective has been established to solve prevalent issues in the outpatient orthopedic & sports physical therapy market.
We are committed to helping physical therapists work for themselves without losing their time freedom, allowing all clinicians to care for patients one to one, providing patients 1:1 care for an expedited recovery, bridging the gap between rehabilitation & boutique fitness participation, and supporting the longevity of the careers of our community’s boutique fitness instructors.
We put our clients needs first. We know your time is valuable.
