Health Facilities Rehab

What Health Facilities Rehab does

Health Facilities Rehab is a privately held, multi-disciplinary rehabilitation services provider headquartered in Sikeston, Missouri, operating across three locations in Southeast Missouri (the main outpatient center at 1102 Sikes Avenue, a Portageville clinic, and a dedicated aquatic therapy facility at 103 Kennedy Drive). Founded in 1994 under President Thomas Richey, PT, the company delivers physical therapy, occupational therapy, speech-language pathology, aquatic therapy (anchored by a HydroWorx 500 Series therapeutic pool with underwater treadmill and camera system), women's health, sports medicine, and industrial/WorkSTEPS employment testing. A team of over 100 licensed and registered therapists serves individual outpatients, 31+ nursing home facilities, Southeast Missouri high school athletic programs, and employer clients, with the Director of Outpatient Therapy (Scott Nichols, DPT, ATC, CSCS) overseeing clinical operations across all service lines.

The business operates primarily on a fee-for-service professional services model, billing per therapy session for clinical services and generating supplementary subscription revenue from fitness memberships ($25-$45 individual/couple/family/senior tiers) and unit-priced functional fitness sessions ($25 per session, 8-session minimum). An additional value-add is the free fitness membership offered to therapy patients after discharge, which functions as a retention and referral lever. Distribution is direct via physician referrals (the primary intake channel), nursing home contracts, employer agreements under WorkSTEPS, and school district partnerships for sports medicine coverage. A patient portal launched in October 2022 provides digital scheduling, form completion, and bill pay capability, representing the company's principal technology investment beyond clinical equipment.

Growth is organic and locally focused: the company has expanded its service portfolio incrementally since 1994, adding women's health (2014), functional fitness, and dedicated aquatic therapy without geographic expansion beyond Southeast Missouri. No funding rounds, acquisitions, or parent company relationships are disclosed. Leadership is long-tenured and founder-led, with Richey serving as President since 1994 and Nichols leading outpatient operations since 2006. The model is operationally stable and integrated across multiple therapy disciplines within a defined regional catchment area, with revenue diversified across individual, institutional, employer, and education channels.
