Premier Physical Therapy is privately owned and specializes in orthopedic, spine, hand therapy, and workers’ compensation. We pride ourselves on getting fast results and reducing time out of work. Our physical therapists and certified hand therapist are considered some of the most respected and experienced in the area.

After an employee gets injured and submits their claim at work, generally, they will see a healthcare provider, and if that healthcare provider directs them to physical therapy, this is where we can step in. Authorizations must be obtained for the patient to be seen and for them to pay the claims.

Some common workplace injuries can include strains/sprains, shoulder impingement, low back pain, overuse/repetitive injuries, fall or trip injuries, overexertion, and trauma that requires surgery. No matter what the injury is, our goal is to guide patients to healing so they can return to their prior functioning level. 

Premier Work Solutions allows us to give case managers and healthcare providers one of the easiest reports to read. We provide documentation promptly, so the referral source/case manager can receive up-to-date information on their patient’s progress.

We offer functional capacity evaluations, physical therapy, hand therapy, and work conditioning/work hardening. We pride ourselves in getting results, ensuring patients have priority scheduling, reduced costs, prevent future work-related injuries, reduced lost time, and receive one-on-one care.

Premier Physical Therapy is in Southeast Missouri and currently has three convenient locations in Cape Girardeau, Jackson, and Advance, Missouri.
