Types of Personal Injuries We Treat
Physical Therapy for Sports Injuries
Sprains and Strains
Sprains and strains are some of the most common injuries athletes face, often caused by sudden movements or overuse during training and competition. These injuries affect muscles, tendons, or ligaments and can lead to significant pain, swelling, and limited range of motion. Physical therapy helps restore mobility, reduce pain, and prevent re-injury through manual therapy techniques, targeted exercises, and injury prevention strategies.
Tendonitis
Tendonitis develops when repetitive motion places stress on a tendon, leading to inflammation and discomfort in affected areas such as the shoulder, elbow, or knee. Experienced physical therapists focus on alleviating pain with therapeutic exercises, flexibility exercises, and hands-on techniques to promote healing and improve mobility effectively. With early intervention, athletes can prevent future injuries and return to athletic performance faster.
Knee Injuries (ACL/Meniscus Tears)
Knee injuries like ACL or meniscus tears can significantly impact an athlete’s ability to perform daily tasks and participate in sports. Physical therapists use advanced techniques such as strengthening exercises, coordination exercises, and functional training to restore proper body mechanics and reduce long-term complications. A personalized treatment plan ensures the healing process supports both physical function and emotional recovery.
Physical Therapy for Accident Injuries
Whiplash
Whiplash is a common injury in auto accident victims, especially from rear-end collisions. It causes neck pain, stiffness, headaches, and a limited range of motion. Physical therapy sessions with evidence-based treatments like manual therapy, stretching exercises, and balance training promote healing, alleviate pain, and help prevent future injuries.
Spinal Injuries
Spinal injuries from a car accident or other traumatic event can affect mobility and cause lasting complications if untreated. Physical therapy for personal injuries like these may include manual therapy, targeted exercises, and pain management strategies to restore mobility, reduce muscle tension, and improve range of motion. Personalized treatment plans help promote healing and support the recovery process over a few weeks to several months.
Back Injuries and Soft Tissue Damage
Back injuries and soft tissue damage are common injuries treated after auto accidents or falls. Such injuries often cause chronic pain and affect the ability to perform daily tasks. Physical therapists use hands-on techniques, flexibility exercises, and strengthening exercises to reduce pain, improve mobility, and support a faster recovery.
Physical Therapy for Work Injuries
Repetitive Strain Injuries
Injured workers often experience repetitive strain injuries caused by ongoing tasks or improper ergonomics. These injuries occur in the wrists, shoulders, and lower back, creating significant pain and affecting mobility. Physical therapy sessions include therapeutic exercises, stretching exercises, and education on proper body mechanics to prevent re-injury and improve physical function.
Lifting-Related Back Injuries
Back injuries are among the most common injuries in the workplace, especially when lifting heavy objects. Physical therapists focus on restoring mobility, alleviating pain, and strengthening injured joints with targeted exercises. A customized treatment plan that includes functional training and flexibility exercises can promote healing, reduce pain, and prevent future injuries.
Joint Injuries (Shoulders, Knees, and Elbows)
Work-related joint injuries can cause long-term complications if left untreated. Physical therapy helps injured workers recover through manual therapy, range of motion exercises, and coordination exercises that support the healing journey. By starting physical therapy early, patients reduce the risk of re-injury and achieve full recovery more effectively.

I/11/2020I have had the pleasure of knowing Derek and his employees since I started going to him for physical therapy many years ago when he first started over on Schertz Parkway and have followed him since then. Derek and his staff have shown nothing but professionalism, understanding of my pain and kindness through out my process of healing. Derek is known through the medical community for his knowledge and his dedication to his patients. As for myself, I will always continue to follow... him because of his passion for helping people. Thank you Derek and your staff for always helping those in pain.read more

I have been here for two injuries-my shoulder and my back. Derek and his staff always took time to not rush my therapy and to explain and show me how and why we were doing one exercise or another. I could feel they cared more about helping me than pushing me down the pipeline. if you hurt yourself and need help I can’t think of a better place to find it.
Marc L.

All I can say is Shertz Physical Therapy / Cibolo Physical Therapy the place to go is BioMotion Physical Therapy!!!!
Candace H.
Derek and all of his staff are top notch......Professional, polite and knowledgeable. I had PT following knee replacement and loved how they listened to me and I (and my knee) were feeling. They push your rehab to maximize your healing but are always mindful of how you are feeling so as not to overdue it. Biomotion is clean and has all the equipment needed. I highly recommend using them for any rehab you may need! Thank you all for getting me back to healthy!

Went to BioMotion for a shoulder injury. The pain was excruciating I thought I needed surgery. Derek provided a quick analysis and informed me on what it was and what I needed to do. Derek and his team of physical therapist began to treat me and no surgery was needed! Shoulder is feeling great and better than what I was before! Highly recommend this clinic! Great team, great clinic, great atmosphere.

I came to BioMotion Physical Therapy for treatment on my right shoulder after being rear-ended in a car accident. From the very beginning, they got me in quickly and took such great care of me. When I first arrived, my pain level was at a 9 and by the end of my therapy sessions, it was down to a 1. The entire team was incredibly helpful, professional, and kind. I truly felt seen, cared for, and important every step of the way. I highly recommend BioMotion to anyone in need of physical therapy,... you won’t be disappointed with their service and compassionate care!read more

My first experience with Derek Sanchez as my physical therapist was in 2009. During my therapy (which helped) I told him about my daughter who was recovering from a bad car wreck which resulted in a spinal fusion and a 6 week stay in the hospital. She was a few months down the road from that but still struggling. He really thought he could help so I arranged for her to have therapy at Biomotion. Derek saw her and helped her improve to the point that she could endure the rigors of nursing... school. She did great and graduated at the top of her class. She is still doing great and has three active sons. I have also seen other therapists at Biomotion over the years with positive results. I just finished treatment with Dr Sanchez for an arthritic hip. My hip pain was keeping me up at night and prevented me from doing things I wanted to do. When I came in I basically said, I’m here so my PCM can check the box to send me to orthopedics so I can have a hip replacement. He said his job was to get me better so I didn’t need surgery. Well, he did, I’m doing very well and surgery is not in the foreseeable future. I give BIomotion my highest recommendation.read more

Dr.Sanchez & Dr.Paez are really good people. The staff is wonderful! They helped me get stronger in my walking after hip replacement. They are compassionate About each client. They helped me in so many ways. They set a plan for my recovery. They sent homework of different exercises to do at home. They are the best when it to physical therapy. I highly recommend them!I thank them for all that they did to help me get stronger. And they have Christian music playing. Something for your heart &... soul! I love these people!read more

Derek and his staff at BIOMOTION are THE BEST. As an athlete both young and older now I have had my share of injuries and experiences with PT. Derek is by FAR the echelon of PT. The facility is always super clean with top notch equipment. All the staff are very knowledgably and caring. They go above and beyond every time. I have never had such care at any other place. Now my husband has had a recent neck surgery and back surgery and has been going several times a week. He had a triple fusion in... his neck and went to therapy several times a week for several months and he has healed wonderfully and we told the neurologist that we believe in the PT at Biomotion help immensely. Now he is having PT for his back surgery and once again is doing fantastic at only 6 weeks post op. Even though Biomotion is further than other places for us, we won't go any where else. So do YOUR PT, it is so very important for healing and I would highly recommend Derek Sanchez and any of his staff at Biomotion. God bless and be well.read more

I recently discussed my cervical neck issues that were causing arm impingement with Dr Sanchez to decide my best place for treatment. He listened carefully, answered all my questions and reminded me of their clinic’s approach. This would be my third time coming back for his help in healing. He didn’t pressure me but told me he was there for me and I could seek other treatment as well. His warm, genuine concern has caused me to come back again. I received a lot of care from Dr. Jordan. He is... very skilled and compassionate. I highly recommend him. The music is always a blessing. My husband told me when I was leaving, I was humming. The songs were still playing in my head:)read more

I'm a USArmy Wounded Warrior from Iraq 2010, I have been going to biomotion Physical Therapy and the progress has been amazing. At first the exercises didn't feel like I was making any progress but when it was time for my evaluation I had tears of joy. I tend to mess up my form when doing exercises and the staff is quick to correct me. If I could give 10 Stars I would, they are all great. If you need Physical Therapy give Biomotion a chance to get your like back on track. My progress has made... a beautiful impact on my ability to play with my children and increased family activities. A+ 100%read more

PLZ READ RIGHT THIS INSTANT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I had a headache and we have tried everything but then my father suggested this place. For short this was my best experience ever. For starters I was real nervous but they made me feel at home. One of the doctors Mr. Derek( I think that’s his name) fixed my headache in just one pop and it didn’t even hurt! I was pain free the rest of my life. It was truly amazing and a great experience I recommend this place BYE!!!
Alan W.
The physical therapist here are by far the best in the business. Experts that you can trust, fantastic staff and elite facilities. I had many options for my son's physical therapy living close to the medical center but I am so glad I chose Biomotion! They truly care about their patients and when you couple that with their vast knowledge... it's a winning combination.
Christopher C.
Dr. Dereck, Dr. Gene and the whole staff are very knowledgeable and professional. The friendly environment and true concern for patient needs drives individuals to get through their physical therapy needs. I strongly recommend this team to help individuals restore their quality of life. If I require physical therapy in the future, I intend on returning to this team.
Michael C.
My daughter just got done doing physical therapy with Gene to fix her bad habit of toe walking. Gene was amazing to her. Patient, kind, and caring. Not to mention he knows what he is doing. Very professional and knowledgeable. He told me on the first day him and my daughter were going to be best friends (we went every Tuesday) and he was telling the truth. My daughter was excited every week to go see Gene. He gained her trust and it showed. Thank you Gene 💯❤

I am a two sport athlete at Westlake high school in Austin, Texas. We are the defending state champs in Texas 6A football and we’re ranked 11th nationally in baseball. I was the starting short stop of the baseball team and couldn’t have gotten to where I was without the help of Biomotion, and doctor Sanchez. 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. Excellent service... and most down to earth people who really want to help you.read more

I have been going for two weeks so far and I love it. Since you get walk through the front door the treatment is awsome, polite, friendly and professional. I was scared at first but they make me feel so comfortable that the day's I go there, are my relaxing days. The facilities are clean and organized. They are always concerns about my wellbeing, and not simply passing by another day at work. Highly recommend!!!!!!! 😊💪👍
