About Travel Therapist Life

Travel Therapist Life publishes articles on what traveling is like to live, from the first weeks in a new city to health care away from home and the weeks between contracts, for PTs, OTs, SLPs and their assistants, and it is published by a travel therapy staffing agency. This page says who that publisher is, what the site is and is not, where its facts come from and how they stay current, and who to contact.

What is Travel Therapist Life?

The site is about the life around the contract rather than the contract itself. Its articles cover a working day on assignment, lessons from a first contract, travel set against a permanent job, settings compared, traveling as a couple or with a pet, packing, loneliness, health insurance and the gap between contracts. Newer guides cover medical care on assignment, Public Service Loan Forgiveness, living on a winter contract and a checklist for your first week.

If you want to know what to read first, the start here page lists the articles in order. This page answers a different question: who stands behind the site, and how what it says is kept honest.

Who publishes the site?

The site is published by a travel therapy staffing agency, and the author box at the end of each article says so. ProTherapy Staffing, which publishes this site, has been PT-owned and operated since 2012.

That sentence is the whole of what this page claims about the publisher. The request forms on the site go to the publisher’s recruiters, and the card and the bar at the foot of each page that point to open jobs are the publisher’s own. The site carries no advertising and no paid placements from any other company.

What is the site not?

It is not tax, legal or medical advice. When an article touches a rule, such as the tax home test or the employer requirement for loan forgiveness, it names the agency that sets the rule so you can read it there. Your own case belongs with a tax professional, a lawyer or your doctor.

It is not a ranking of agencies or a job board. No article scores agencies or puts them in order, and the site lists no contracts. When you want open contracts, the job alerts page and the request forms are the way in.

It is not a record of real people’s results. Some articles are told as a day or a contract seen from the inside, and the student loan article is marked as a hypothetical example, not a real person or a real result. Your own numbers will differ, so run them yourself before you sign.

When you are ready to try the life for yourself, tell a ProTherapy recruiter what you want next: Find my next contract.

Where do the site’s facts come from, and how do they stay current?

The articles are written as experience and explanation. Where an article leans on a rule that changes, such as a plan’s enrollment window or a federal rate, check the official page before you act on it. A few parts are filled in from data files that carry their sources:

The rest is written from the road: what a week feels like, what to pack, what goes wrong in a gap. Read it as an account from the road, and lean on the linked official pages for anything that decides money, coverage or loans.

Who do you contact?

To reach a person, call or text the business line on the publisher’s contact page, which also takes a written message. If something on the site looks wrong, such as a rule that has changed or a source that no longer says what an article quotes, name the page and the line when you send it.

If you would rather have contracts come to you, the job alerts page emails new contracts in your discipline, daily or weekly.

Frequently asked questions

Is Travel Therapist Life run by a staffing agency?

Yes. The site is published by a travel therapy staffing agency, named on this page and in each article’s author box, and its request forms go to that agency’s recruiters. A request you send goes to that agency and no other.

Are the people in the articles real?

The articles are told as experience, and the student loan article is marked as a hypothetical example, not a real person or a real result. Treat any example as a way to see how the decisions work, not as a figure for your own situation.

Does any company pay to appear on the site?

No. The site carries no advertising and no paid placements from other companies. The card and the bar at the foot of each page that point to open jobs are the publisher’s own.
