Work and auto injury rehab in San Benito
Rehab built around the job you go back to
Grip is a physical therapy clinic for people hurt at work or in a car, and for the employers and adjusters who work with them. We start from what your job asks of your body.
Start here
I was hurt at work or in a car
I am an employer or an adjuster
Two ways in
One clinic, two starting points
A worker and an employer ask different questions first. Each has its own page, and both end at the same plan.
| If you were hurt | If you send us a worker | |
|---|---|---|
| What you do first | If you were hurtCall, message us on WhatsApp or use the form. Tell us who your adjuster is, if you have one. | If you send us a workerSend the referral, call or use the employer form. Tell us who gets the updates. |
| Who directs the care | If you were hurtYour state decides who may direct your care. We explain what that means for you. | If you send us a workerThe worker's doctor and your state's rules. We follow the referral and the rules. |
| What we ask about the job | If you were hurtWhat you lift, carry, climb, kneel on or hold through a shift. | If you send us a workerWhat the job's tasks ask of the body, and what a modified task could look like. |
| What you hear back | If you were hurtA plain plan, in English or Spanish, before we start. | If you send us a workerA written update to the people the case names, as the rules allow. |
How it works
Work conditioning, in four steps
Work conditioning is practice for the job: graded, supervised, and built from your own tasks.
- 01
Step 1: We learn what the job asks
You tell us what you lift, carry, climb, kneel on or hold through a shift. We write it down and plan around it.
- 02
Step 2: We test where you are today
A functional test shows what you can do now, task by task, and what is still limited.
- 03
Step 3: We build up to the job
Lifting, carrying, reaching and standing, raised step by step, with coaching on how you move.
- 04
Step 4: We plan the return
Your therapist tells you and the people your case names what you can do now, and what comes next.

Lifting from floor to shelf, with crates loaded toward your job's weight
Carrying, pushing and pulling over a set distance
Reaching overhead and working at a kneel
Standing and walking for longer stretches, built up over time
Questions people ask first
Do I need a referral?
In Texas, you can start without a referral, within limits the state sets. Your plan may still ask for one, and workers' compensation often does. Call us with your plan or claim details and we will check before you book.
Does my plan cover this?
We bill workers' compensation carriers, auto injury coverage and many commercial plans. Your payer decides what it pays. We check with the payer you name and tell you before your first visit.
What if I pay myself?
We give you a written estimate before your first visit, and we tell you what each visit includes. If a plan may reimburse you, we give you a detailed receipt to send in. The plan decides whether it pays.
How long is a visit, and who treats me?
Your first visit is about an hour with a physical therapist. Later visits vary. A physical therapist assistant may guide your exercise, under your therapist's direction.
I was hurt at work. Who do I tell?
Get care first. Then tell us who your adjuster is. Your state decides who may direct your care, and we explain what that means for you before you start.
