JOHNSTON, Iowa, Jan. 11, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Athletico Physical Therapy has opened a new location in Johnston, Iowa, located in Johnston Town Center near City Hall. This location offers convenient hours, including early morning and late evening appointments, and does not require a referral or prescription to start treatment. To learn more, or to schedule a free assessment, visit www.athletico.com/JohnstonIA.

Physical therapy is usually the thing you are told to do after medication, x-rays or surgery. The best way to fix your pain is to start where you normally finish - with physical therapy at Athletico.

"As clinic manager, I'm incredibly excited about the opportunity to provide physical therapy services and high-quality patient care to the Johnston community," said Tyson Handsaker, PT, DPT and Clinic Manager of Athletico Johnston. "Athletico's emphasis on delivering a first-rate patient experience, while providing exceptional physical therapy evaluations and treatments, very much aligns with my own values as a physical therapist."

In addition to in-clinic treatment at Johnston, Athletico is expanding access to care by offering virtual appointments from the convenience of your own home. Patients have the option to have their condition assessed and treated virtually by a licensed physical therapist through a secure online video chat.

Services available at Athletico Johnston include:
