LAGUNA NIGUEL, CA (May 2, 2016) – Rausch Physical Therapy & Sports Performance (Rausch PT)—a leader in the physical therapy field that specializes in taking patients from injury, to recovery, to peak performance—today announces the tenth anniversary of the company’s founding.
Kevin Rausch, president and owner of Rausch Physical Therapy & Sports Performance.Rausch PT was founded in 2006 by president and licensed physical therapist Kevin Rausch when he was 27 years old. While other privately-owned physical therapy clinics have seen little-to-no growth in recent years, with many having to close their doors, Rausch PT stands out in the field thanks to its president’s unique vision for operating physical therapy practices.
Since the start Rausch has aimed to be an innovator in the field of physical therapy. Rather than rely on a broken health care system and physician referrals, Rausch wanted to provide a holistic option for rehabilitation, preventative health and wellness. After moving from a 2,000 sq. ft. suite to a 9,000 sq. ft. one, the company not only expand its physical therapy practice, but also to added an on-site, full-service Pilates studio and massage therapist wing. An on-site sports performance lab was added a couple years later, boasting the kinds of technologies that one can typically only access as a professional athlete, including an AlterG® Anti-Gravity Treadmill® and Hypoxico Altitude Training System. In ten years Rausch PT has grown from one physical therapist and 2,500 annual visits, to six licensed PTs on staff and more than 18,000 annual visits.
“Our clinic has taken the lead by not only offering the most thorough and specific rehabilitation programs in the field, but also by integrating the latest rehab technology and on-site wellness offerings that you just cannot find anywhere else under one roof,” Rausch said. “I’m proud of what we’ve been able to accomplish as a company in the past 10 years, but more importantly I look forward to continuing to expand people’s minds on what physical therapy can be.”
While most people think of hospitals and nursing homes when they think of physical therapy, Rausch PT specializes in active patients who want to get back to doing what they love, whether that be completing an IRONMAN, jogging a 5K, or simply chasing after their kids. Instead of being clinical and sterile, Rausch modeled the feel of his PT clinic after his grandfather’s sports bar—a welcoming, intimate escape for therapy.
“We’re in the business of making people feel good, and I don’t just mean their injuries,” Rausch said. “I want patients to look forward to coming here because it’s social and fun, everyone knows your name, and everyone is rooting for you to achieve your goals.”
By offering the highest quality rehab programs and latest technological advances, Rausch PT has earned its reputation as the “go-to” clinic for Orange County triathletes, runners, swimmers and cyclists, in addition to patients who live active, on-the-go lifestyles. Clients include everyone from ultra-trail runners and amateur cyclists, to weekend warriors and moms-on-the-go.
