Apex Network Physical Therapy®
What Is Apex Network Physical Therapy?
Apex Network Physical Therapy is a franchise for operating physical therapy clinic Facilities that offer physical and/or occupational therapy services. The operational model is brick-and-mortar, with each franchisee operating a licensed clinic (Facility) under the franchisor's System and Proprietary Marks. It serves individual patients (B2C) and may also provide services to organizations for employees (B2B), with a core service bundle of licensed physical and occupational therapy delivered at the Facility and supported by the franchisor's management system (training, patient development, centralized billing, advertising, and operational standards).
Apex Network Physical Therapy Franchise: Pros and Cons
The $10,000 initial franchise fee is well below typical for Health & Wellness brands (bottom 5%), leaving you more cash for build-out and early operations, but the $65,000 minimum reserve requirement (top 10%) is unusually high and indicates significantly greater working‑capital needs.

Territory Protection
Apex Network Physical Therapy grants a site-specific, non-exclusive protected Assigned Territory for one franchisor-approved location, with boundaries set by a franchisor-determined radius to meet population thresholds (5,000/10,000/15,000). Rights are contingent on meeting performance quotas; franchisor retains e-commerce/alternative-channel sales and the right to develop nearby units.
Training & Support
Apex Network Physical Therapy provides a robust 103-hour training curriculum designed to prepare three managerial staff members for launch. The program includes on-site launch support aimed at operational readiness at no additional charge, and franchisees are responsible for travel and living expenses.
Unit Growth Analysis
The franchise experienced a slight decline from 86 units in 2022 to 85 in 2023 (−1.16%), then flatlined at 85 units through 2024 and 2025 (0.0% YoY most recently). This pattern-a small drop followed by two years of zero growth-indicates a shift from minor contraction to stagnation, signaling to investors limited near-term unit-driven upside and possible market saturation or a weak development pipeline unless new expansion initiatives are implemented.
