Our story

Mark and Cheryl Fowler opened East Mountain Physical Therapy (EMPT) in Moriarty during August of 1995, expanded to Edgewood in 2005 and Cedar Crest in 2006. Their goal is to provide physical therapy in an atmosphere you won't find in the city and leave patients with "friendship and fitness for life."

With licensed physical therapists in each of our clinics and occupational therapists in our Cedar Crest clinic, we direct your plan of care and communicate with your physician as needed. Our team of therapists and licensed assistants work together to provide every patient with quality, hands-on care ... every time you are seen. We continuously assess your progress and modify your treatment plan as needed.

A team that works together

Our physical therapy team is led by a physical therapist who creates and oversees every patient's plan of care. Each clinic has experienced physical therapist assistants who progress patients through their treatment plan. We believe this "Team Approach" is very effective in providing quality care. Most of our patients appreciate having a variety of ideas and expertise, and our results show that this approach works well! However, if you prefer to be seen by a specific therapist or assistant each visit, simply let the front desk know, and we will do our best to accommodate you.

Standards and results

We are members of Desert States Physical Therapy Network, a group of over 30 private practice clinics throughout New Mexico who strive to maintain the highest standards in the industry. We also participate in a national database of functional outcomes and patient satisfaction assessment called "Care Connections." These results are reviewed quarterly and have shown that we are above average in achieving therapy goals AND patient satisfaction.

Ready when you are

We see patients from Cedar Crest, Edgewood, Tijeras, Moriarty and the East Mountains.
