U.S. Physical Therapy Clinics: An Industry Analysis

This analysis by Marketdata examines the $53 billion outpatient physical and occupational therapy centers industry. Speech therapy and audiologists are also included. The physical therapy business is highly fragmented, with the 50 largest competitors capturing only 29% of the revenues, which makes it ripe for consolidation. Moderate growth is forecast, with positive growth drivers including a stable reimbursement environment, outpatient efficiencies, an alternative to opioid therapy, and strong demand related to client aging.

While there are a few national companies, the industry consists predominantly of small to medium regional providers with annual revenue of $871,000.

This industry is experiencing increased M&A activity from both strategic suitors and private equity investors.

Physical therapists work in hospitals, private practices, outpatient clinics, people’s homes, schools, sports and fitness facilities, work settings, and nursing homes.
