Answer the call to advance physical therapy care as a Travel Physical Therapist in Sonora, California. This specialized opportunity puts you at the forefront of patient recovery, allowing you to design personalized rehabilitation journeys that restore mobility, reduce pain, and help people reclaim independence. As you rotate across settings and patient populations, you’ll witness the tangible impact of your clinical judgment—from post-surgical recoveries to helping adults sustain independence in daily living. This role blends clinical autonomy with collaborative teamwork, fueling ongoing growth with every assignment. California’s vast beauty serves as a compelling backdrop: in Sonora you’ll enjoy foothill vistas, gold-country charm, and easy access to outdoor adventures that recharge your energy between sessions. Picture serene evenings in a historic town, weekend hikes, or fishing by nearby streams, all while you nurture your patients and advance your career.

Location Benefits: Working in Sonora presents a welcoming, close-knit community with access to outstanding outdoor experiences, safe neighborhoods, and a balanced lifestyle. You’ll benefit from manageable commutes, meaningful patient relationships, and the chance to immerse yourself in a region known for its rich history and scenic beauty. Beyond the local setting, the position offers the flexibility to work at additional sites across the United States, presenting opportunities to broaden your clinical toolbox, encounter diverse care environments, and build a national footprint. Whether you’re treating fracture rehab, neurological issues, or physical performance goals, you’ll gain exposure to varied case mixes and facility types—all while enjoying the unique advantages of California’s landscapes and a supportive, patient-focused culture.

Role Specifics and Benefits: As a Travel Physical Therapist, you’ll evaluate functional status, craft individualized treatment plans, and implement evidence-based interventions to maximize mobility and independence. You’ll monitor progress, adjust plans as needed, and collaborate with physicians, nurses, and other allied health professionals to ensure seamless, patient-centered care. Documentation and outcome tracking will reflect best practices and regulatory standards, with clear communication to patients and families about goals and expectations. The role offers meaningful avenues for professional growth within the specialty, including opportunities to deepen expertise in orthopedics, geriatrics, pediatrics, gait and balance, or manual therapy as assignments rotate. We provide competitive compensation, with a weekly pay range of $2,431-$2,659, plus housing assistance to ease relocation and living expenses. A bonus program recognizes performance and assignment duration, and extension opportunities give you the chance to continue expanding your travel PT career. You’ll have robust, 24/7 support from our travel specialists to assist with travel logistics, housing questions, and clinical questions, so you can focus on delivering exceptional care. Please note: the hours and pay listed are estimates and may vary. Final compensation packages and guaranteed hours will be confirmed during the hiring process.
