TheraXPro: Our Story
TheraXPro began with two physical therapy students, a camera, and a healthy dose of “there has to be a better way.”
While in PT school, Jeffrey Sass and Jonathan Adams filmed exercises in their own homes and used Google Translate to connect with non-English-speaking patients in pro bono clinics. The tools were simple. The goal was bigger: break down the barriers between patients and the care they deserve.
That idea caught on. Inspired by the mission, a growing community helped turn a student project into TheraXPro Incorporated, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit. Today, we provide affordable clinical tools, from an expansive home exercise program library to digital outcome measures and clinical education, to help clinicians and students turn knowledge into meaningful care.
We’ve come a long way from homemade exercise videos, but our purpose remains the same: remove barriers, elevate care, and help people live healthier lives.
