About Us

The Mid American Rehabilitation Network, previously the Ohio Physical Therapy Network, was founded by 6 physical therapists in 1992.  Their vision was to bring private practice groups together for purpose of gaining leverage when dealing with issues important to private practice owners.  The organization, originally serving Ohio, has expanded to contiguous states and thus needed a name expressing the new expanded Network.  The Network has evolved to be a guiding source to assist Members administratively and provide resources that meld clinical and administrative practice.  Membership continues to grow and Members prosper.
