Orthopedics Plus has been professionally providing physical therapy services in Russellville and the surrounding area for almost a decade. The location
has changed, the training of the staff continues to advance, and the facilities are greatly improved and expanded, but the care given clients continues
to be courteous, caring and professional.
Orthopedics Plus Physical Therapy is a privately owned outpatient practice founded in 2002. The company provides comprehensive physical therapy
services for the residents of Logan, Todd, Butler, Christian and Allen counties and their neighbors. Orthopedics Plus has doctoral level and board

years of combined expertise in delivering orthopedic and neurologic physical therapy. They utilize proven treatment techniques and state-of-the-art
equipment to assist clients in their recovery.
The addition of Performance Plus Health & Fitness in an adjoining office in Russellville has added a state-of-the-art fitness center. Orthopedics
Plus and Performance Plus share the same training equipment, but no medical issues or doctor’s orders are needed to participate in the activities and
use the equipment of the fitness part of the business.
Performance Plus has six treadmills, five stationary bikes, three elipticals, a stepper, free weights and weight training machines for every major
muscle group. After an orientation program, clients can work at their own speed or participate in group programs directed by staff members.

their employees. The physical therapists at Orthopedics Plus Physical Therapy, Inc. have looked to WorkWell's Isernhagen Work Systems of Aliso Viejo,
