About 21st Century Rehab

Your Recovery is Our Mission

Since 1995, we have been Iowa’s trusted partner in physical therapy, occupational therapy, and speech therapy — helping patients reclaim their movement and live life to the fullest.

Our Story

Founded on a Vision of Better Care

In 1995, Steve and Michelle Cassabaum founded 21st Century Rehab with a simple belief: every Iowan deserves access to exceptional, personalized rehabilitation care close to home. What started as a single clinic in Nevada, Iowa has grown into a network of 13+ locations — six outpatient clinics and seven hospital-based programs — serving communities across the state.

Today, our dedication remains unchanged. We continue to offer direct physical, occupational, and speech therapy through certified doctoral-level clinical specialists. We bypass bureaucratic delays so that our neighbors can begin their wellness journey immediately.

Who We Are

Our Driving Purpose

Whether it’s persistent back pain, joint stiffness, or recovery from an injury, physical limitations don’t just hurt your body — they hold you back from living.

Our Mission

To be the preferred therapy choice by providing a local opportunity in a positive environment that supports and promotes the concept of doing and being “well” in all aspects of a person’s life through the provision of comprehensive and individualized services to our customers and by fostering the development of enduring relationships.

Our Vision

Work well. Play well. Live well.

We will promote and advocate healthier lifestyles and wellness choices for all generations through the provision of our services and by being an organization that leads by example.
