Action Therapy & Wellness · Gonzales, LA
We're an outpatient clinic on E Worthey Street, treating Ascension Parish since 2010. One therapist, one patient, one room. Call and someone gets back to you within 24 hours.
What we treat
Most people book by naming a body part, not a diagnosis. That is a perfectly good place to start. Here is what comes through the door most often, and who in the building handles it.
Four rooms, four jobs
Over 30 years of combined experience across the clinical team. Most insurance is accepted, self-pay is an option, and you will be contacted within 24 hours of calling the facility.
01 / Physical therapy
Orthopedic injuries, neck and back pain, chronic pain, arthritis, auto accident and work injuries, sports injuries, and the rehabilitation either side of surgery. Balance training and fall prevention run as their own program. Louisiana is a direct access state, so most plans let you come straight here.
Physical therapy in detail
02 / Occupational and hand therapy
Trigger finger, De Quervain's tenosynovitis, carpal tunnel syndrome, tennis elbow, rheumatoid arthritis and wrist fractures. Splints are fabricated to your hand and adjusted as the swelling drops. This is the one service that does need a doctor's referral -- we will tell you that on the phone rather than at the front desk.
Hand therapy in detail
03 / Sports assessment and therapy
Functional movement assessments, core stability screening, range of motion and flexibility testing, and dynamic strength and proprioception work. From there it is injury prevention training, sport specific training, throwing programs and strength programs. Taylor Terrio played four years of Division 1 softball before becoming a PTA.

Wellness runs outside insurance, so there is nothing to estimate and no reason to make you call to find out. Therapeutic exercise runs $50/$75/$100 a month for one, two or three sessions a week; manual therapy is $75 per 30 minute session, $100 for the first visit; session packages run 6 for $350 within three months or 12 for $700 within six months. Unused or missed visits do not roll over.
Wellness services in detailAround the parish
Action sets up at community events around Ascension Parish, phone number printed across the banner, handing out water at the turn. The clinic is a member of the Ascension Chamber of Commerce. That is a slower way to build a practice than advertising, and it is roughly why the review count looks the way it does.
“I was barely able to walk when I arrived today and after my session I walked out with little to no pain.”Ed Kuhnert, Google review
Who is actually in the room
A therapist stays with you for the session rather than starting you on a machine and moving to the next room. That is easier to promise than to staff, so here is the whole roster.
