About Us at HomeTown Physical Therapy
in Stephenville and Hico, TX
At HomeTown Physical Therapy, we’re proud to be Stephenville and Hico’s leading outpatient orthopedic physical therapy clinic—locally owned and operated by Mark Blackburn and Brandi Wood. With deep roots in the community, our clinic’s story began in 1998 as Stephenville Sports Rehab & Physical Therapy. In 2003, Mark took ownership, expanding the practice to three locations by 2011. Brandi joined as a partner in 2016, and together they opened a fourth location in Hico by 2018.
In 2022, the practice partnered with a larger healthcare group, expanding to seven clinics. While this chapter brought valuable growth and insight, Mark and Brandi realized their true passion lies in delivering personalized, community-centered care. In November 2024, they made the bold decision to sell four locations and retain the Stephenville and Hico clinics—rebranding them as HomeTown Physical Therapy.
“This change reflects our commitment to returning to our roots and prioritizing the individual needs of each patient. We’re excited to foster an environment where hands-on care and meaningful relationships with our patients and referring providers come first. And the best part? We’re still here—with the same team, in the same locations—continuing to serve the community we love.”
At HomeTown PT, we deliver evidence-based, hands-on treatment tailored to the unique needs of our neighbors. Our team believes in the power of local care—serving our communities and surrounding areas not only through outpatient physical therapy, but also through partnerships with multiple home health agencies to extend care into the home.
