We are ready to add full time Orthopedic Physical Therapist to our team in Torrance asap. This position is specifically for a candidate who has strong orthopedic, manual skills to treat a range of diagnoses, such as spine, hip, pelvis, but also would love to also support pregnant and postpartum moms in their pregnancy journey, birth prep and postpartum recovery.

Our Director of Physical Therapy, Dr Jenni Gabelsberg, has been on HW faculty for 16 years and teaches the pelvic series and the OB series. All experienced staff have the opportunity to TA these satellite courses and we are open to staff developing subspecialty programs within our company.
