View Career OpportunitiesAbout Highbar Physical Therapy
Highbar Physical Therapy is the parent network behind three of New England’s most established outpatient PT brands — Joint Ventures Physical Therapy (Boston), Peak Physical Therapy (South Shore Massachusetts), and Physical Therapy U (Rhode Island and Massachusetts).
Each one is a Highbar practice: a clinic that keeps its own name, neighborhood roots, and local identity while sharing the clinical standards, residency-trained clinicians, and patient experience that define the Highbar network. The brands stay distinct because the communities they serve do.
Whether you walk into a JVPT clinic in Boston, a Peak clinic on the South Shore, or a PTU clinic in Rhode Island, you’re walking into a Highbar practice — same standard of care, same commitment to getting you back to what you love, delivered by the local team you already know.
