Job Description

A Little About Us:

At MovementX, we believe that empowered providers can empower their patients. That is why at MovementX, we’re doing things differently.

Our journey began by revolutionizing traditional outpatient physical therapy, creating an out-of-network model that offered unparalleled quality of care to patients and empowered providers with better compensation, autonomous schedules, and reduced burnout. While our out-of-network model thrives, we are committed to balancing accessibility and equality of care for all.

A pivotal moment arrived in 2021 when MovementX partnered with a local county jail. This unique opportunity allowed us to uphold our core values by serving a population that otherwise couldn't access our high-tier physical therapy services. What began as a passive partnership quickly grew, as we recognized the profound impact musculoskeletal care could have within correctional facilities.

Empowered by a strong referral network, innovative technology, and an engaging team of colleagues, MovementX providers can achieve their full potential as clinicians while giving back to those in need.

• Our Mission: To help people move their best so they can live their best
