About
GroupHab Physical Therapy
​​Our Foundation. Our History. Our Why.
For over a decade, GroupHab Physical Therapy has existed for one reason:
to solve a problem we saw too often in traditional healthcare for older adults.
Older adults were receiving short episodes of care, focused on treating a diagnosis — but not on helping them stay strong, confident, and well over time. Once therapy ended, support ended too.
We believed there had to be a better way.
How GroupHab Began
GroupHab Physical Therapy was created to reimagine how physical therapy could
support older adults long term. Over 11+ years, GroupHab became a trusted name in our community by
doing what we said we would do:show up consistently and care deeply.
From the beginning, our focus was different:
Specialized care for older adults
Individualized physical therapy paired with guided movement and education
A strong emphasis on prevention, confidence, and independence
Ongoing relationships — not just short-term treatment
What We Learned
As GroupHab grew, so did our understanding of the challenges older adults face
— and the limitations of clinic-based care alone.
We saw that:
-
Many people struggled to access care because of transportation or mobility
-
Community and social connection played a major role in long-term health
-
Physical therapy was most effective when it extended beyond discharge
-
A one-location model limited how many people we could truly serve
We also saw how these same limitations affected clinicians — rushed visits, short episodes, and burnout.
Why We Evolved
Rather than expand more clinics, we made a different choice.
​
We chose to expand the model.
GroupHab evolved to bring our proven approach beyond the clinic and into the places
where people actually live, gather, and move.
​
That evolution led to the creation of
two service lines built on the GroupHab foundation:
​
AgeWellHab Physical Therapy
Outpatient Physical Therapy — In the Home & Community
​
AgeWellHab Physical Therapy was created by GroupHab to deliver the same high-quality, relationship-based outpatient physical therapy — without the walls of a clinic.
This model allows us to:
Provide outpatient PT in the home and community
Eliminate unnecessary barriers to care
Focus on long-term outcomes instead of quick discharges
Support both patients and clinicians in a more sustainable way
​​TherHab Fitness
Where Rehabilitation Transitions Into Lifelong Strength
TherHab Fitness was created to bridge the gap between physical therapy and independent exercise.
Led by physical therapists, TherHab Fitness helps older adults:
Continue building strength and balance after therapy
Stay active in a safe, supportive environment
Maintain progress and confidence long term
​
​​Our Philosophy Hasn’t Changed
While the way we deliver care has evolved, our philosophy has not.
We still believe:
Older adults deserve more than short-term care
Physical therapy should prevent decline, not just treat it
Relationships matter
Consistency matters
Care should adapt to people — not the other way around
GroupHab is the foundation that made all of this possible.
​
The Bottom Line
GroupHab Physical Therapy is our history.
AgeWellHab Physical Therapy and TherHab Fitness are its evolution.
Same mission.
Same values.
Expanded reach.
