About OrthoRehab OrthoRehab is a locally owned private practice in San Antonio specializing in musculoskeletal rehabilitation.

Maintain timely, accurate, and professional intake forms, consent documentation, and treatment notes. Maintain a clean, comfortable, private, and fully prepared massage-treatment space, including linens, table sanitation, supplies, and equipment. Protect patient privacy and follow all clinic confidentiality, safety, infection-control, and professional-boundary policies.
