Based in North Massapequa, Long Island, we’re looking for a committed and energetic Physical Therapist to provide world-class therapy services to our clients.

About Us

​

Ascent Physical Therapy is where endurance athletes and active adults from across Long Island can learn, grow, and achieve a life free of pain. We strive to ensure that our clients receive world class customer care on top of the best possible physical therapy care. Our ultimate goal is to get clients back to the life they wish to live. We also provide functional assessments for those who wish to improve their activity efficiency, performance, or the way they move in general.

We are a low-volume, cash-based clinic where treatment is not dictated by insurance companies. Your days will be spent helping clients one-on-one (not writing notes) to reach their fullest potential. You will be working with highly motivated people who value their health and time. And most of all, your own growth and personal development will always be a top priority.
