We are more than just a clinic. We are your partners in recovery.
Cypress Physical Therapy is not just a place; it's a community of compassionate professionals driven by a singular purpose – to guide you on your path to optimal health. With a legacy of excellence in physical therapy treatments, our team is united by the belief that everyone deserves to live life to the fullest.
Our Journey
In 2016, Chris Cancienne founded Cypress Physical Therapy in LaPlace, LA with the sole desire to bring personal, dedicated treatment to the River Parishes with a focus on sports rehab. From the design of the clinic to the colors of the Cypress logo, our patients can feel the energy embodied in our name, always green and full of life. The goal of every member of the Cypress team is to help our patients on their road to recovery perform better and live better.
In 2017, Cancienne and Cypress’ Managing Partner Buddy Boe, decided to expand Cypress past the town of LaPlace and began partnering with local therapists. Our local partners are what makes Cypress different. As other clinics sell to larger and larger mega-healthcare companies, Cypress remains a local clinic, in practice and reality. Our partners are local. Our staff is local. Our treatment is personal.
In 2022, Cypress opened its first clinic outside Louisiana in Orange, TX. Orange, TX might just be another town in Texas to anyone from outside the area but to Cypress, it’s part of our history. Cypress Physical Therapy’s corporate offices are located on Cypress Street in Lutcher, LA. Lutcher, LA was founded as a cypress lumber company town by the Lutcher family from Orange, TX.
As the Cypress tree keeps growing, we are focused on keeping each clinic local and the treatment personal; because #CypressHeals.

Our staff provides high quality physical therapy services in a beautiful, state of the art facility using up-to-date research studies to continuously change and improve patient care that is personalized and tailored to your specific needs and wants. As a healthcare leader, we partner with groups and events within the communities we serve to maintain a connection with the local community, our community.
The Cypress team and our patients are a family traveling on the road to recovery together. We believe you’ll feel it the moment you walk into our clinic for the first time and remember us as you get back to your life after your treatment comes to an end.
Latin word for Cypress: Cupressus Sempervirens. SemperVirens = Always Green
Cypress encourages us to see the natural transitions within the cycle of life. Cypress signals the end of a major phase in our life and the transition into a world of new possibilities. The cypress tree, Cupressus sempervirens, was seen as the tree of immortality and deathlessness by the Persian prophet Zoroaster.
For centuries, Middle Eastern and European cultures have revered the cypress as a symbol of the transition between life and death, with cypresses symbolizing the uplifting of the human spirit and the possibilities of eternal life.
