At Merced Occupational Services, we believe that recovery is deeply personal. Every patient who walks through our doors has a unique story, a distinct set of challenges, and individual goals for their future.
Founded in Merced, California, our practice has grown into a trusted destination for occupational and physical therapy in the Central Valley. We combine clinical expertise with genuine compassion, creating a warm environment where healing happens naturally.

Every session is tailored to you — no assembly-line therapy.
Evidence-Based Practices
Treatment plans grounded in the latest clinical research.
Holistic Approach
We treat the whole person, not just the injury or diagnosis.
From your first visit to your final session, we guide you through every step with clarity, care, and purpose.
We begin with a thorough evaluation to understand your condition, goals, and lifestyle.
Your therapist designs a personalized treatment plan based on your specific needs.
Through hands-on therapy and targeted exercises, you progress toward your goals.
You leave with the tools, strength, and confidence to maintain your progress independently.
Real experiences from real people who trusted us with their recovery.
"After my shoulder surgery, I thought I'd never lift my arm above my head again. The therapists here didn't just treat my shoulder — they treated me as a person. Six weeks later, I'm back to gardening and playing with my grandchildren."

Occupational Therapy Patient
"I've been dealing with chronic lower back pain for years. Other places gave me generic exercises and sent me on my way. Here, they took the time to understand my job, my home setup, and my real goals. For the first time in years, I feel like I have a plan."
J.T.
Physical Therapy Patient
"The hand therapy I received after my carpal tunnel surgery was exceptional. They made me feel comfortable from day one and adjusted my plan as I progressed. I'm now back to typing and cooking without pain — something I thought was impossible."
