Are You Tired of Feeling Stuck?

MISSING OUT ON WHAT YOU LOVE

Every day you wait, you're losing time doing the activities that bring you joy. That pickup basketball game or playing with your kids shouldn't be off-limits.

GENERIC CARE THAT DOESN'T WORK

You've tried stretching, resting, even other PT clinics, but nothing sticks. Cookie-cutter treatments ignore what makes your situation truly unique.

FEAR OF MAKING IT WORSE

You're tired of tiptoeing around your pain, unsure what movements are safe. This uncertainty keeps you from living fully and confidently.

Real Stories from Real People

“I would recommend anyone who has or is recovering from an injury to reach out to the More Than Movement team. Because of the team and their efforts, I am in overall better shape than I was prior to my injury.”
Donovan Stuard
"It's hard to put into words the impact that More Than Movement is making on the fitness/rehab world. Nick & his team are some of the kindest, most knowledgeable coaches and physical therapists in the industry - so much so that we refer our clients exclusively to this facility (one of our coaches is even a client). Their level of care, respect, and expertise is unparalleled."
Strength Haüs
"Nick’s coaching has been invaluable, I’m extremely grateful to him and MTM! Anytime I hear someone complain about a sports injury, I'll chime in to say "You've gotta check out MTM, it'll be a life changing experience!"
Stephanie Grau
"Ian is my main physical therapist and 10/10 would recommend. His plan is so personalized and intentional, and I'm finally feeling like I might not have to be someone at 33 managing chronic knee and shoulder issues and can get back into the shape I want to be in and probably better shape than I've ever been. He's taught me how to work out properly. Him and the MTM crew have been a life changer and I'm very thankful for them!"
Jim Kantner
"The team at More than Movement are the best. I signed up for their MVP program in preparation of my first half marathon. Not only did they keep me super strong during training, I really enjoyed the process getting there. I learned so many useful strength training tools that I will take with me. Love these guys!!"
Shealyn Kilroy
"Meeting Nick was AMAZING. He listened to my concerns and designed a program to tailor my recovery/strength-training needs. We worked on the moves together and I now go into the studio twice a week doing a workout that is supervised. I am SO grateful to have found MTM and I look forward to going each week!"
Auggy Augs
"I have been having recurring back issues for almost 10 years. Malti McKinnon listened to my concerns, and built a program that gave me the physical AND mental tools to continue my fitness journey without the constant fear of injury I’ve been carrying. I cannot recommend this place enough."
Colin Kane
"Initially, I was doing 1:1 sessions twice a week with Corey. I can't say enough good things about him and the program he tailored for me. After a month of 1:1, I moved on to their hybrid model twice a week with Morgan, Malti, and Nick. Again, can't say enough good things about all these folks! I could rant and rave about how much I love MTM. If you need PT and training, look no further."
Josh Soldiers
"The best place to recover from an injury. I had been suffering with a painful injury that was keeping me from working out for a long time. Malti was my physical therapist and I highly recommend her, she was absolutely wonderful."
K. Car.

FAQs

How long do your sessions typically last?

Most sessions are about 60 minutes, one-on-one with your physical therapist the entire time. No handing you off to techs. No cycling through three patients at once. Just focused work on what you need — whether that’s hands-on treatment, movement coaching, strength training, or all of the above.

Will I be treated during our first session together?

Yes — absolutely. While we’ll do a full evaluation to understand what’s really going on, you’ll also be treated in that very first session. You’ll walk out knowing more about your body and already feeling a difference. No wasted visits. No endless “assessments” without action.

How is your physical therapy different from traditional physical therapy?

Traditional PT can be a revolving door — 10 minutes with a therapist, then you're left doing exercises you could do at home, often alongside five other patients.

At More Than Movement, we do things differently. You get full one-on-one attention with a highly trained therapist who knows your name, your goals, and how you move. Every session is custom to you. We treat the person — not just the injury — and help you build toward long-term performance, not just temporary relief.

How many sessions will I need?

It depends on your goals, your starting point, and how much you want to invest in your progress. That said, we don’t believe in dragging things out. Our goal is to get you better, fast.


Some people feel a huge difference in just a few sessions. Others partner with us for a few months to work through a bigger issue, prevent injury, or perform at a higher level. You’ll always get a clear plan — no guesswork, no fluff, no pressure.

At the end of your assessment, you and your therapist will agree on a custom game plan that meet you where you’re at.

My schedule is all over the place — can this fit into my current routine?

Life is busy. That’s why we offer flexible scheduling, including early morning, evening, and even remote/telehealth sessions when appropriate.

Most of our clients are juggling full-time work, kids, training, or all of the above. We’ll work with you to find times that make sense and build a plan that doesn’t feel like another “thing” on your plate, but something that makes everything else in life easier.

Our More Than Movement App is like having a physical therapist in your pocket. It’s your mobile rehab HQ. Your plan, workouts, and progress tracking will all live here. So even when you’re traveling or on the go, we’re still with you.

What should I expect at my first session?

The first session is a deep dive into you. How you move, where you’re feeling stuck, what’s been tried before, and where you want to go. You’ll get a full assessment and hands-on treatment, plus a plan that makes sense and feels doable.

Expect to feel seen, heard, and taken seriously. Also expect to move — because we’re not just talking about the issue, we’re getting to work on it.

What sort of training do your physical therapists have?

Our therapists are doctors of physical therapy (DPTs) with advanced training in movement, strength, injury rehab, and performance. Many of us have backgrounds in athletics, personal training, strength and conditioning, or manual therapy. We’re not just looking at your chart; we’re watching your squat, your gait, your lifts, your real-world movement.

We stay sharp with continuing education, certifications, and (to be honest) a healthy obsession with helping people move better.

Do you take insurance or HSA/FSA plans?

We’re an out-of-network provider, which means we don’t bill insurance directly. We accept payment at the time of the session and we give you a superbill to submit for potential reimbursement. Many clients get a portion reimbursed depending on their plan.

HSA/FSA funds? Those are totally fair game. Most of our clients use HSA/FSA cards with no issue. We provide the documentation you need to make that simple.
