Four Pines Physical Therapy

Four Pines Physical Therapy is a regional physical therapy practice with clinics in Jackson, Alpine, and Driggs, Idaho, focused on orthopedic, sports, and post-surgical rehabilitation. The right fit is anyone managing an injury, recovering from surgery, or working through chronic pain who wants hands-on, manual-therapy-based treatment with structured progression. The wrong fit is someone wanting a single-session deep-tissue massage; this is clinical rehab with treatment plans, not bodywork.

What you get

Three clinics across the Teton region (Jackson, Alpine, Driggs), staffed by licensed physical therapists. Treatment runs across orthopedic injuries, sports rehabilitation, post-surgical recovery, and chronic pain management. The model is hands-on manual therapy combined with progressive exercise programming. The Jackson clinic on South Highway 89 is the main location; Alpine and Driggs cover Star Valley and Teton Valley patients respectively. Operating in the region for 26+ years.

Why people choose Four Pines

Three reasons. First, no-referral access in Wyoming. Direct access means you can call and book without going through a primary-care visit first, which matters when an injury is recent and you want care quickly. Second, the regional footprint. Three clinics means short drives for Star Valley and Teton Valley residents who would otherwise commute over Teton Pass for therapy. Third, hands-on therapy. The clinic culture leans manual rather than machine-and-monitor, which suits the active-recovery population this valley produces.

How to plan a visit

Call to book; no referral required. Most insurance plans are accepted; verify coverage with your provider before the first visit. Wear loose, athletic clothing you can move in. Bring a list of relevant medical history, surgery dates, and imaging if you have any. Arrive with clear goals (return to skiing a specific run, lifting a child without pain, completing a fall race). Initial evaluations run longer than follow-up sessions; budget 60-75 minutes for the first visit.

Honest limits to know

Two honest tradeoffs. First, schedule pressure. Spring (post-ski-season) and early summer (early-trail-season injuries) are peak weeks; book ahead. Second, recovery takes consistent attendance. Walk-in single-session relief isn't the model; meaningful progress happens across multiple visits with home programming in between.

Heads up

For ski-season injuries, book the first available appointment rather than waiting it out; the clinic's experience with knee, shoulder, and wrist injuries from the mountain is deep, and earlier intervention shortens overall recovery. For Star Valley and Teton Valley residents, the Alpine and Driggs clinics save the drive over the pass; ask about staff overlap if you want a specific therapist.

Final call

For orthopedic, sports, and post-surgical physical therapy across the Teton region with a hands-on approach and three-clinic coverage, Four Pines is one of the right calls. Book early, bring your goals, and stick with the program.
