Axes Gives Back: Supporting the Saint Louis Crisis Nursery

Axes is a small, locally owned and operated physical therapy company serving our communities in the Greater St. Louis area. We’re fortunate to be able to offer our services at 21 locations, with the mission to help as many people as possible. Our profession is all about helping others and giving back. Through the service of physical and occupational therapy, we give our patients’ their livelihoods, lifestyles, and abilities back.

Since giving back is the fundamental reason that our organization exists, it was important to the ownership and staff of Axes Physical Therapy to make sure that we are doing all that we can to give back to the communities we love. Each month, Axes partners with a local, staff-nominated charitable organization to donate food, goods, clothes, and funds through our “Wear Jeans, Change Lives” initiative. Employees of Axes contribute to a St. Louis area charitable cause by automatic payroll deduction, and get to wear jeans to work on Fridays.

At Axes Physical Therapy, we believe in giving back to the St. Louis community we serve. Our mission goes beyond healing bodies—we’re here to support causes that strengthen families and make a difference in the lives of individuals throughout the Greater St. Louis area. This December, we’re proud to highlight The Crisis Nursery of Saint Louis, an incredible organization dedicated to preventing child abuse and providing emergency intervention for families in crisis.

What Is The Crisis Nursery of Saint Louis?

The Crisis Nursery of Saint Louis is a lifeline for families facing challenges like illness, homelessness, or overwhelming parental stress. They provide 24-hour care for children from birth through age 12, ensuring their safety and well-being when families need a helping hand. From offering short-term care to connecting parents with resources to stabilize their situations, the Crisis Nursery helps improve lives across the Greater St. Louis area.

Why This Cause Matters

The holiday season can be a time of joy—but for some families, it’s a time of hardship. Stress, financial strain, and lack of support can leave parents feeling overwhelmed and children vulnerable. The Crisis Nursery steps in to ensure no child is left in a dangerous situation, offering love, safety, and hope during life’s most challenging moments.

At Axes Physical Therapy, we’re inspired by their commitment to caring for the most vulnerable members of the St. Louis community. Their mission aligns with our core belief: improving lives through compassion, connection, and meaningful action.
