Everything You Need to Get Started
At Total Motion Physical Therapy, we make your first visit simple, clear, and focused on your goals. Whether you’ve been referred by a physician or are coming to us directly, we’re here to help you feel confident from day one. Below, you’ll find details about what to expect, how to prepare, and where to access patient forms.
We’re here to support total function for total life, and that starts with a smooth and welcoming experience from your first phone call through your final visit at our physical therapy clinic in Christiansburg, Blacksburg and Radford, VA.
What to Expect During Your First Visit
Your first appointment will include a full evaluation with one of our licensed physical therapists. We’ll take the time to learn about your symptoms, activity level, and health history. Our goal is to identify the underlying causes of your pain or limitations, not just treat surface-level symptoms.
From that evaluation, we’ll develop a personalized treatment plan that reflects your goals and your body’s needs. Our therapists use hands-on techniques, exercise-based rehab, and evidence-based tools to restore movement, reduce pain, and improve performance in daily life.
You’ll leave with a clear understanding of your diagnosis, what your sessions will involve, and what you can do at home to support your recovery.
Patient Forms
To save time on your first visit, we encourage you to complete your new patient paperwork in advance. Forms may include:
- Patient intake and health history
- Insurance and billing information
- Consent for treatment
- HIPAA and privacy acknowledgment
Please bring your completed forms, a photo ID, your insurance card, and any referral or imaging reports relevant to your condition.
If you’d prefer to complete forms in person, we recommend arriving 15–20 minutes before your scheduled appointment.

Help Someone You Know Feel Better, Move Better, and Live Better
At Total Motion Physical Therapy, we believe that healing is even more powerful when it’s shared. If physical therapy has helped you restore function, reduce pain, or return to what you love doing, we invite you to pass that experience on to a friend, family member, or colleague.
Our Refer a Friend program gives you the opportunity to help someone take the first step toward better movement, less pain, and a healthier lifestyle.
Who Should You Refer?
Think of someone you care about who:
- Complains of back, neck, or joint pain
- Has difficulty moving at work, at home, or during exercise
- Recently had surgery and needs support during recovery
- Wants to improve mobility, strength, or balance
- Is frustrated by limited progress with other treatments
- Has been avoiding activity due to fear of pain or reinjury
Physical therapy can often provide lasting results without surgery or long-term medication. By referring someone you trust to a team you believe in, you are offering them access to a safe, effective path forward.

We use:
- Manual therapy to restore joint and tissue motion
