Athletico Physical Therapy Teams Up with Limber Health
Athletico Physical Therapy, one of the largest providers of orthopedic rehabilitation across many communities, has formed a new partnership with Limber Health. Together, they’re bringing in-clinic expertise and easy-to-use digital tools under one roof to help people with musculoskeletal conditions stay on track from the clinic to home.
A Hybrid Approach That Blends Clinic Care and Digital Support
This collaboration introduces a true hybrid model that connects what happens in the clinic with what happens between visits. Patients using Athletico’s services will have access to Limber Health’s technology, which supports personalized therapy plans and helps guide recovery through a cohesive digital framework. It’s designed to make care continuous—start with hands-on therapy, then keep the momentum going at home with clear direction.
Access Made Simple, With Added Support Between Visits
With the Athletico mobile app, patients can follow video home exercise programs, see their progress over time, and share patient-reported outcomes—all in one place. For those who qualify, the partnership also enables Remote Therapeutic Monitoring (RTM). Through RTM, dedicated Care Navigators—licensed clinicians—check in and support patients between appointments so they stay engaged with their plans, adjust when needed, and feel supported throughout recovery.
Building on a Commitment to Digital Solutions in Rehab
Dan Guill, CEO of Athletico, underscored the organization’s role as an early mover among outpatient therapy providers by implementing RTM at scale. The alliance with Limber Health, he noted, reflects a clear commitment to pairing digital innovation with the high-quality, in-person care Athletico clinicians already deliver. The intent is simple: give patients practical tools that empower them day to day while giving therapists timely information that helps guide the next step in care.
Working Together to Improve Outcomes
The partnership highlights Athletico’s focus on demonstrating the effectiveness of its services. By combining established therapy practices with digital tools, the model aims to make care more comprehensive and convenient for people seeking musculoskeletal rehabilitation. The result is designed to be better patient engagement and more informed clinical decision-making—an approach that also aligns with value-based care priorities for employers and payers who want quality, clarity, and measurable progress.
Reframing the Standard for Musculoskeletal Care
Michael Gruner, CEO of Limber Health, emphasized the significance of pairing Athletico’s broad clinic network with Limber’s digital capabilities. Together, the two organizations aim to raise the bar for physical and occupational therapy by supporting consistent, well-coordinated care from the first clinic visit through every at-home session.
