VISION
Island Therapy Center was founded in 2009, by Sanibel resident Rachel Tritaik, PT, CLT, LMT, with the goal of providing quality healthcare services to residents, visitors and workers on Sanibel and Captiva Islands. With over 25 years experience as a licensed physical therapist, she understands the need for customized therapy treatments and complementary therapies that enhance health and wellbeing.
INNOVATION
Rachel envisioned a different approach from the traditional physical therapy clinic. In other clinics, patient’s times overlap, and non-therapists conduct most of the “treatment”. We believe in quality over quantity, resulting in happier patients and therapists!
MISSION
Our mission is to help you with three “R’s”: reduce pain, restore mobility and return to your active lifestyle. Enjoy our beautiful islands and feel well on Sanibel.

Bio
WHY CHOOSE ISLAND THERAPY CENTER FOR PHYSICAL THERAPY?
You will be evaluated and treated by the SAME therapist each visit, schedule permitting, for the entirety of your visit (no treatment by aides or assistants). This ensures consistent care and faster recovery. We will also not waste your valuable therapy time with weight machines you can find in your local gym. Instead, your strengthening program will be individualized and effective with reproducible activities you can do at home. You deserve your therapist’s undivided attention, therefore we ONLY schedule one-on-one sessions. For this reason, we suggest you book ahead for appointments to ensure your preferred times. We have limited clinic space, and our appointment slots fill VERY quickly for the peak months of January, February and March.
Our licensed physical therapists (including doctorate physical therapists) have many years experience.
You ALWAYS have a choice in where you receive your Sanibel physical therapy services. Some physician offices may not be aware of our clinic, or prefer to refer to clinics in their own system, despite inconvenience for the patient. We accept referrals from all physicians and health systems and will stay in close communication with your doctor.
We offer a CHOICE between insurance-based billing or a Medicare-equivalent flat-rate fee. This takes the guess-work out of estimating the cost, especially if you have a high-deductible, are out-of-network or have no insurance in the USA.
