Pride, inclusivity, and high quality care - All year long
It’s June, which means it’s PRIDE MONTH! As a physical therapy clinic founded by a member of the LGBTQIA+ community, Formation is always striving to provide the best damn care for a community that should be honored and loved.
Pride is built into everything we do, every day of the year.
Inclusivity is the foundation of how we treat all our clients - with respect, compassion, and the best physical therapy care - no matter your gender identity, sexual orientation, race, body size, ability, or history.
What Inclusivity Looks Like in physical therapy
Too many people—especially queer folks, trans and nonbinary people, people of color, and those in larger bodies—have been dismissed, misgendered, or told their pain isn’t real. That doesn’t happen here. We will always listen to you.
At Formation, inclusivity means:
Asking, not assuming: We respect your pronouns, identity, and life experiences.
Treating the whole person: Physical pain and movement challenges don’t happen in a vacuum. Your stress, history, and identity matter. They belong in the conversation.
No body shaming. We meet you where you are, not where some outdated (ahem BMI) chart says you should be.
Individualized, affirming care: Whether you’re training for your first Hyrox, planning for a marathon, or trying to deadlift without pain—we’ve got you.
Celebrating Pride Through Care That Honors You
We believe that healing and strength happen when you feel seen. When you feel safe in your body, your care, and your goals. Our job isn’t just to help you move better, it’s to help you move more like yourself. With confidence. With power. Without pain.
Pride Month is a great reminder to reflect on what we stand for. But we’re proud to say that for us, this isn’t seasonal. It’s standard.
You deserve care that sees you. Honors you. Works for you.
