If you’re a go-getter who leads with heart, thrives on growth, and loves seeing others succeed - this might be the most exciting opportunity you’ll read this year…

About Us:

At CJ Physical Therapy & Pilates, we’re not your typical PT clinic. We’re a cash-based, high-performing, and people-first team located in downtown Portsmouth, NH.

We specialize in helping adults 40+ stay active, mobile, and pain-free - without pills, procedures, or surgery. Our approach blends Mechanical Diagnosis & Therapy (MDT), Pilates-based rehab, and cutting-edge regenerative technologies like Shockwave and EMTT to deliver unmatched results.

We’re growing fast - and ready to take this business to the next level. That means building a world-class Physical Therapy Department that fuels our expanding Regenerative Medicine and Longevity programs - and we need a Clinical Director to make that happen.
