BioMotion works with many major insurance plans and serves patients throughout Schertz, Cibolo, and the surrounding area. If you do not see your insurance carrier listed, call 210-659-4333. Our team can help you determine whether your plan is accepted and explain any referral or authorization requirements that may apply.
Personalized Care
Pain, an injury, or surgery can affect more than how you move. It can interfere with work, sleep, exercise, time with family, and the activities you enjoy.
BioMotion provides physical therapy Schertz residents rely on, built around your symptoms, movement, medical history, and personal goals. Our licensed physical therapists use evidence-based treatment, hands-on care, strengthening, mobility work, and movement retraining to relieve pain and address factors that may be contributing to your pain or limitations.
The goal is not to hand every patient the same exercise sheet. It is to understand what is keeping you from moving the way you want to and build a personalized plan that progresses as you improve and helps you achieve your goals.
Talk with a licensed physical therapist about what you are experiencing, at no cost.
Built around your symptoms, movement, medical history, and goals, and adjusted as you improve.
Many patients can begin physical therapy without a physician referral. Our team can explain any requirements that apply.
Your Goals
Every patient comes to physical therapy for a different reason. Some are tired of dealing with pain every day. Others are recovering after surgery, trying to return to a sport, or dealing with an injury that keeps coming back.
Everyday Comfort
Pain can make sitting at work, walking through the store, climbing stairs, sleeping, or even standing for long periods more difficult. Physical therapy can help alleviate pain, restore mobility, and identify limitations in strength, joint mobility, and movement that may be contributing to those challenges.
Surgery can repair an injured structure, but strength, motion, confidence, and function still need to be rebuilt afterward. A structured rehabilitation plan provides guidance as you progress through recovery.
Learn MoreFeeling better is not always the same as being ready to return. Sports rehabilitation can help rebuild the strength, mobility, balance, control, and capacity your activity requires before you return to full participation.
Learn MoreRecurring injuries may be related to unresolved weakness, mobility restrictions, movement mechanics, workload, or other contributing factors. Your therapist can evaluate the bigger picture and build a plan around what they find.
Learn MoreDepending on your condition, physical therapy may be one conservative option to discuss before moving toward more invasive treatment. Your therapist can evaluate your limitations and help you understand whether PT may be appropriate for your situation.

Neck Pain
Neck pain can make turning your head, working at a desk, driving, and sleeping uncomfortable. Symptoms may be related to muscle strains, posture, whiplash, disc problems, or nerve irritation. Your therapist evaluates your symptoms and movement to understand what may be contributing to your discomfort and develops a plan around your limitations and goals.
Your treatment plan may include manual therapy, targeted exercises, stretching, postural education, and ergonomic adjustments. We also provide guidance on exercises and movement habits to support your progress between visits, with treatment adjusted as your mobility and function improve.

“I had been dealing with back pain for a couple of months and went to many different physical therapy places and none could get me back to where I am now, except Biomotion.”

Getting Started Is Simple
Not sure whether physical therapy is the right next step? BioMotion offers free screenings so you can talk with a licensed physical therapist about what you are experiencing and learn whether a physical therapy evaluation may be appropriate.
Tell us what is bothering you and what activities have become difficult.
We will discuss your concerns, symptoms, goals, and relevant medical history.
If physical therapy may be appropriate, our team can explain what comes next and help you understand scheduling, insurance, and any referral requirements that apply to your situation.
Our Approach
When something keeps hurting, it is easy to fall into a cycle of resting, taking pain medication, avoiding certain activities, and hoping the problem eventually goes away. Those approaches may provide temporary relief, but they do not always address the strength, mobility, movement, or activity-related factors contributing to the problem.
At BioMotion, we take the time to understand what you are experiencing and what you want to get back to doing. Your physical therapist may evaluate your mobility, strength, movement patterns, balance, flexibility, and functional limitations before developing your treatment plan. Our team is committed to identifying the root cause of your symptoms before treating them.
Our approach may include:
A Different Experience
A previous experience with physical therapy does not necessarily mean every PT approach will feel the same.
Some patients come to BioMotion after receiving passive treatments or performing the same exercises visit after visit without understanding how the program connected to their goals.
At BioMotion, treatment begins with an initial consultation based on your symptoms, movement, strength, mobility, medical history, and goals. Your therapist uses that evaluation to develop your plan.
As you improve, that plan can progress with you. That may mean changing exercises, increasing resistance, advancing movement patterns, introducing more demanding functional activities, or preparing you for the specific demands of work, exercise, or sport.
Physical therapy should be a process that leads to lasting results, not just a handout.

Call 210-659-4333Physical therapy can be valuable for people dealing with pain, mobility limitations, injuries, weakness, or recovery after surgery. Treatment is designed to improve movement, strength, function, and confidence based on the patient's individual needs and goals. A physical therapist can evaluate your limitations and explain whether PT may be appropriate for your situation.
Physical therapy may be appropriate if pain, weakness, stiffness, an injury, or limited mobility is making work, exercise, sleep, or everyday activities more difficult. A physical therapist can assess your symptoms, medical history, movement, strength, mobility, and goals to determine whether physical therapy is an appropriate next step. If you are not sure, BioMotion offers free screenings so you can discuss your concerns before scheduling a full evaluation.
Physical therapy begins by identifying the factors that may be contributing to pain, weakness, or movement limitations. Depending on what your therapist finds, treatment may include strengthening, soft tissue mobilization or joint mobility exercises, manual therapy, balance work, movement retraining, postural education, and activity-specific exercises. Your treatment plan can be adjusted as your abilities and goals change.
Sessions follow your individual plan and may combine hands-on treatment with guided exercise, stretching, strengthening, balance work, or movement practice.
Most sessions last approximately 45 to 60 minutes, depending on your condition and treatment plan.
Wear comfortable clothing that allows movement and access to the area being treated. Shorts, leggings, and a comfortable shirt are usually suitable.
Treatment can help maintain mobility, build strength, and support activity through exercises and hands-on techniques tailored to the joints involved.
Your therapist can assess your injury and develop a progressive plan to restore strength, mobility, movement, and function.
Discuss your previous experience during a free screening. BioMotion builds treatment around an individualized assessment and adjusts your plan as you progress.
Benefits, visit limits, referrals, and authorization requirements vary by plan. Our team can help review your insurance information before treatment begins.
