Get Answers About Your Pain and a Clear Plan for Recovery
If pain, stiffness, or limited movement has been holding you back, you may be wondering what's actually causing it—and what to do next.
At deBorja Physical Therapy, our Total Body Movement Diagnostic is designed to give you clarity. During this one-on-one evaluation, Angie deBorja takes the time to understand your symptoms, assess how your body moves, and identify the factors contributing to your pain or mobility limitations.
You'll leave your appointment with a better understanding of what's happening, why it's happening, and what your next steps should be.
Understanding the Total Body Movement Diagnostic
A Total Body Movement Diagnostic is a comprehensive 30-minute physical therapy evaluation that helps identify the underlying causes of pain, injury, stiffness, and movement dysfunction. Rather than focusing only on the area where you feel discomfort, Angie evaluates how your entire body moves. Many painful conditions are influenced by movement patterns, posture, muscle imbalances, joint restrictions, or soft tissue dysfunction elsewhere in the body.
This appointment is designed for people who want answers before beginning treatment. While it does not include hands-on therapy or treatment during the visit, it provides valuable insight into your condition and a personalized roadmap for recovery.
By the end of your evaluation, you'll have a clearer understanding of your symptoms and whether physical therapy is the right next step.
