Specialists in Sports and Orthopedic Rehabilitation

What Specialists in Sports and Orthopedic Rehabilitation does

SSOR (Specialists in Sports and Orthopedic Rehabilitation) is a boutique outpatient physical therapy provider based in the Kansas City metropolitan area, founded in 2012. The practice delivers orthopedic rehabilitation, sports medicine, and women's health services, treating conditions including arthritis, back pain, balance and gait disorders, carpal tunnel syndrome, chronic pain, and concussion. Its clinical model relies on an all-DPT staffing structure in which every treatment is delivered by a Doctor of Physical Therapy rather than a Physical Therapist Assistant, supported by evidence-based manual therapy, therapeutic exercises, vestibular therapy, neuromuscular rehabilitation, balance and gait training, ergonomic training, and dry needling.

The company operates two clinics: an established Kansas City site and a new Overland Park, KS location that opened December 5, 2025. SSOR is a strategic partner within the Alliance Physical Therapy Partners (APTP) network, gaining access to shared marketing, billing, compliance, legal support, the Agile EMR platform, and the Agile Virtual Physical Therapy telemedicine channel. Patients access care through self-referral under Kansas' Direct Access provisions, physician and podiatrist referrals, or online appointment requests; marketing reach is built around content marketing, SEO, social media, podcasts, and PR/earned media.

Revenue is generated primarily through per-session outpatient PT billing, covered by private insurers, workers' compensation, Medicare, and Medicaid, with self-pay available. Specific session pricing, headcount, ownership details, and financial figures are not publicly disclosed. SSOR achieved a Net Promoter Score of 93 for 2024, characterized as world-class, and inherits the APTP parent organization's Great Place To Work Certification for 2026.
