Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure.

     U. S. Physical Therapy, Inc. (the "Company") will deliver a presentation on
Tuesday, January 16, 2007 at the Sidoti & Company LLC, Fourth Annual Palm Beach
Emerging Growth Institutional Investor Forum at the Ritz-Carlton Palm Beach in
Palm Beach, Florida. Chris Reading, Chief Executive Officer, and Lawrance
McAfee, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, will address the
conference.

     A copy of the presentation may be accessed on the Company's website,

     The presentation contains certain non-GAAP financial measures as defined

financial measures contained in the presentation include a presentation of
EBITDA. EBITDA equals net income before interest, taxes, depreciation and
amortization expense. See the addendum included in the presentation for a
reconciliation of net income to EBITDA. Management believes providing this
non-GAAP financial information to investors is useful information for comparing
the Company's period-to-period results.

purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and
