Job Description
About the role

The volunteer opportunities at Precision Physical Therapy & Fitness offer a great opportunity to learn about the unique approach utilized by our therapists while providing insight to the day to day workings of an outpatient clinic.
As a volunteer, you could play a vital role in helping Precision Physical Therapy & Fitness achieve its goal of providing high quality care to a wide variety of patients. You will be responsible for assisting clinic upkeep and other necessary tasks throughout the clinic.

Our goal is that you leave your position as a volunteer with an understanding of what makes Precision different from other Physical Therapy practices. Volunteers that take full advantage of their experience with us leave with a basic concept of diagnostics through movement, human body mechanics, and a deeper understanding of what it takes to provide quality patient care.
If you’ve tried therapy, classes, or training that resulted in pain or produced minimal results, you know that not all movement is created equal. Precision’s philosophy is based on natural human development and the most advanced scientific research on efficient body motion available. Dr. James Vegher and Dr. Chris Christensen founded Precision Physical Therapy & Fitness after spending years in traditional rehab facilities. Both therapists struggled to reconcile methods they had seen significantly improve the speed of recovery in their patients with traditional physical therapy techniques. By evaluating each patient’s needs and unique body, James and Chris experienced a high rate of success and were able to create a teaching and learning environment for other therapists and patients. When faced with a large number of patients returning to therapy after attempting to exercise and injuring themselves, Precision’s co-owners developed fitness classes that solidify and put into practice the movement principles that keep our clients moving well, without pain, for life.
