Job Description
PeteHealth helps bring physical therapy to your Pilates or yoga studio. We're looking for California-licensed PTs who already teach yoga or Pilates and want to offer clinical care in the studios where they work.
The idea in one line: Insurance doesn't pay for fitness, but it does pay for physical therapy. Clients pay out of pocket for yoga and Pilates as fitness. When a client has a diagnosed condition and a prescription, the PT you provide can be billed to their commercial health plan.
What You'll Do
- Provide physical therapy to clients with diagnosed conditions who are seeking treatment for pain or injury
- Draw on your yoga and Pilates expertise to guide clinically appropriate care
- Treat clients in the studio or in their homes
- Work with the studio owner to introduce PeteHealth to their community
- Document care according to clinical and billing standards

Nice to Have

- Comfort with insurance-based documentation
