Q: What type of patients are seen?

MovementX providers see a wide variety of clientele. As a MovementX provider, you are free to treat a variety of patient populations or focus on a specific niche. If you know someone who is looking to move their best so they can live their best, then they are a fit for MovementX. We have physical therapists who specialize in orthopedics, sports, neurological conditions, women’s and pelvic health, vestibular conditions, fitness, and strength and conditioning, and more. We also have high level personal trainers who help progress our clients through the MovementX continuum to ongoing wellness. Visit our services page to learn more about the MovementX continuum.

Q: Who are your Physical Therapists?

Our providers are a diverse group of dreamers and doers, busy professionals and stay at home moms. They are fitness junkies and data geeks. But what do they all have in common? All our providers were tired of the care they could provide in the clinic and joined our team to empower the way healthcare is delivered. We take pride in our MovementX providers because we know that they are ready to go above and beyond for you. They expect more out of themselves and the healthcare system and are pioneering a new model of care, all with you in mind. Our providers go through an application process, interviews, ongoing background checks and are held to a 5-star review standard. We have providers across the country who are specialists in a variety of treatment techniques. If you already have a provider you would like to get started with, register here and select "I know a provider I'd like to book with." If you don't yet have a provider and would like us to match you with someone, register here and select "I'm looking for a provider to book with" and a member of our team will reach out to you immediately.

Q: Are sessions one-on-one?

We've all heard the horror stories of physicians burried with their heads in their laptops or patients only seeing their PT every few visits. Our sessions are more than one on one...they are lazer focused on the only thing that matters. You! We never hand off your care to aids or assistants and we don’t have other patients lined up in the waiting room demanding our time. Without the restrictions on care that come from working with insurance companies, we see ¼ the number of patients in one week than traditional clinics. This means we have even more time and energy to dedicate to you. For those who are interested we also have the opportunity to host group classes or 2 on 1 sessions for those with similar conditions and goals. Ask your provider about options!

Q: Do I need a referral from my doctor to start PT?

No, you do not need a doctor’s referral to start physical therapy with MovementX. In all U.S. states, you can see a physical therapist directly when you have pain or an injury. Research shows that starting physical therapy early leads to better outcomes, so don’t wait—contact us today to schedule your evaluation. Some states require a referral after a certain period of treatment, and some insurance companies require a referral for reimbursement. If you’re unsure about your specific situation, contact us at (202) 681-1474 or info@movement-x.com , and we’ll verify for you.

Q: Do you work with my other doctors?

Not only will we help you achieve your health and wellness goals, we will coordinate with your care team; your physicians, personal trainers, family members, massage therapists, chiropractors, and more. Because of our concierge level care model, we see fewer patients each week which means we have more time to focus on you. We will work with you to be an active participant in your health and to understand the implications and options for care. We expect that treatment with MovementX will revolutionize your care expectations.

Q: How do I get started?

We want to thank you for joining us on this journey into a new era of physical therapy and healthcare! To get started, sign up to become a patient: Option 1: Do you already have a physical therapist in mind? After creating your account, select “I Know a Provider I’d Like to Book With” and search for your physical therapist's name. Once you complete the sign-up process, you will be directly connected with your physical therapist who will reach out to you within 24 hours. Option 2: Don’t have a physical therapist yet but looking for a great fit? Select “I’m Looking for a Provider To Book With” and one of our team members will reach out to you immediately. Once you’ve found your physical therapist and finished the sign up process, you can ask your physical therapist about their experience, their availability, your condition, and any other question you may have...free of charge. However, before you’re able to access the full message functionality, we’ll need you to input your payment information. Don’t worry, you won’t be charged a cent until after your first session is completed and all payment information is housed securely by our third party payment processor. You and your physical therapist will then decide on a time and place to host your first session. From there, we expect you to have a phenomenal care experience. It’s our guarantee!

Q: Should I choose in-home or clinic-based care?

Choosing between in-home and clinic-based care depends on your needs and preferences. MovementX brings concierge physical therapy directly to you, whether that's at your home, gym, office, a local track, or even virtually via telehealth. However, if you prefer a dedicated treatment space, we've also partnered with several local gyms and other locations to provide a comfortable private setting for your care. Wherever movement happens in your life, we’ll be there to support you. Contact us to discuss the best option for you.

Q: What conditions do you treat?

Our physical therapists are trained in a variety of specialties including spine, orthopedics & sports, pelvic & women’s health, maternity care, neurological conditions, pediatrics, and more. We also believe in more than just reactive care, we believe in preventative care. If you are having difficulty achieving your goals or want to take your movement skills to the next level, a MovementX physical therapist or personal trainer will be there to help you move better.
