What do we do and what makes us different?
Welcome to Borne Physical Therapy & Wellness
​
At Borne Physical Therapy, we're redefining what healthcare looks like for those who refuse to settle. Born from a vision to bridge the gap in our "sick-care" system, we've created a sanctuary where healing and empowerment intersect. Since 2021, we've evolved from a mobile service to planting our roots in our new beautiful Lake Wales location—a place where physical therapy meets mindful movement through strength training, pilates and yoga.
​
Our principle-based approach isn't about quick fixes—it's about sustainable transformation. We take time to truly listen, developing personalized plans that address not just symptoms, but the root causes preventing you from living your most vibrant life.
Here, you're never just another appointment slot; you're a partner in your own healing story.
​
Whether you're recovering from injury, managing chronic pain, or seeking to elevate your wellness practice, Borne Physical Therapy provides the expert guidance, supportive community, and holistic tools to help you thrive in a body that feels like home.
