If you went into physical therapy to actually heal people—not to play musical chairs with three patients at once while racing against insurance clocks—we have a treatment table with your name on it.
At Rehab Without Walls in Brewer, we do exactly what our name says: we break down the traditional barriers of rehab. We are looking for a passionate, fun-loving Physical Therapist to join our outpatient neuro team.

Real Neuro Rehab: Help individuals recovering from brain injuries, stroke, spinal cord injuries, and complex neurological conditions regain their strength, balance, and independence.
A Team That Has Your Back: Work alongside physical therapists, OTs, and speech therapists who share ideas, celebrate patient wins, and actually enjoy spending time together.
Evenings & Weekends Are Yours: Clock out at 4:30 PM on Friday and don't think about work again until Monday morning. Go explore Acadia, hit the Penobscot River, or just catch up on sleep.
What We Bring to the Table
$10,000 Sign-On Bonus (Because you've worked hard for those initials after your name).
Sanity-Saving Schedule: M–F, 8:00 AM – 4:30 PM. No weekends, no late nights.
- Growth & Mentorship: Mentorship from experienced neuro clinicians to help you expand your skill set.
- Competitive Pay & Full Benefits Package (Health, dental, PTO, and CEU support).
