Sitka Physical Therapy - Sitka, Alaska. Sitka's only out-patient PT private practice.

Sitka Physical Therapy, LLC was founded in 1999 and remains Sitka’s only out-patient PT private practice offering a comprehensive menu of rehabilitative services.

Our team of experienced professionals is skilled in differential diagnosis, which is a process of detailed evaluation aimed at identifying the source of your symptoms. We direct treatment at the underlying cause of your pain while actively addressing your symptoms; this allows for more complete healing and prevention of pain reoccurrence.

We take a proactive approach to rehabilitation and have furnished our facility with the most up-to-date exercise equipment to help you on your path to recovery and optimal function (AED equipped).

Our patients enjoy personalized one-on-one treatment exclusively under the care of a licensed Physical Therapist / PTA following a thorough initial evaluation.

New Documentation & Billing System

This April, the practice transitioned to a new electronic documentation and billing system. Although this will not influence your care and in-clinic experience, you may notice a change in how you receive appointment reminder notifications. In addition, you will now receive statements from Sitka Physical Therapy for PT services in place of a consolidated Sitka Medical Center version. We appreciate your patience and understanding during what we hope will be a seamless transition.
