The valley's physical therapy clinic — now bigger and better
Bayfield Physical Therapy has been part of this community since the 1990s. In 2026, Pine River Physical Therapy joined us, bringing both of Bayfield's clinics together under one roof. That means more therapists, more appointment times, and one team serving everyone from Ignacio to Vallecito — without the drive to Durango.
- One-on-one, full-hour visits with a licensed PT — never handed off to a tech
- Direct access — no referral needed for most plans
- Medicare, Health First Colorado & most major insurance accepted
- Surgeon protocols followed for patients operated on in Durango, Farmington & beyond
