At Border Therapy Services, our physical therapists are highly educated, licensed health care professionals who are dedicated to helping their patients get results.
Physical therapy is a medical, hands-on approach to relieving pain and restoring function. Physical therapists are medical experts in musculoskeletal and neurological conditions and work closely with physicians. Our physical therapists evaluate your movement patterns, identify the cause of your pain, and work to eliminate it.
While every patient’s condition and pain is unique, your physical therapist will use a variety of gentle hands-on techniques, exercises, and equipment to relieve pain quickly and restore your function to optimum levels. The overall goal is to restore pain-free mobility and function and to prevent the injury or pain from recurring.
Working with you and your doctor, we can discuss your options and help determine if physical therapy will be the right choice for you. Contact us today to discuss your current condition or even set up a free screening if you choose.
As a patient you have the right to receive physical therapy at any place you choose. At Border, you will receive the highest quality care while achieving the results you need. We pride ourselves on providing a positive, encouraging environment with well-trained, friendly staff. We are confident in our ability to help you reach your goals and live a pain-free life.
Physical therapists have years of university level training in anatomy, physiology, kinesiology (study of joint movement), neurology, and other medical sciences. Our physical therapists have graduated from accredited physical therapy programs and are state licensed. Depending on the university, the physical therapy program is either a master’s or doctorate level degree. Rest assured, your therapist is well-trained to evaluate and treat your condition.
Our scheduling is easy and we offer convenient locations and appointment times for you. We have morning and evening appointments available to meet the demands of your busy schedule. Call us today at (915) 595-3535 for Texas or at (575) 339-1066 for Las Cruces to get started.
First, please have your insurance card available when you call to request an appointment. This will allow us to verify your insurance benefits and provide you with an estimate of coverage.
It also helps if you can provide any of the following:
Dress comfortably with clothes that allow easy access for the therapist to evaluate the area for which you’re seeking treatment. Loose-fitting clothes that are comfortable for moving around in and supportive sneakers are often good choices.
Physical therapy is not meant to hurt, but rather to relieve pain. However, as you restore your mobility and rehabilitate an injury, pain levels can fluctuate. You might experience temporary soreness from using muscles that are weakened or recovering. This is a normal response to therapy treatment. Good communication with your therapist will help us minimize any discomfort. We want you on your way to quick pain relief and back to normal activities.
Typically, the first session lasts for 1 hour 15 minutes. Each session after that may be 45-60 minutes. The amount of time will be based on your specific needs, and your therapist will discuss this with you ahead of time.
Each patient’s diagnosis is different, so together with your referring physician, your therapist will develop a plan of care that is right for you. Your plan of care and number of visits will be determined during your first visit and explained to you by your physical therapist.

Yes, in most cases it does. Our clinic will be happy to assist in contacting your insurance company and determining your coverage based on your individual policy.

For patients who do not have insurance, we offer a private pay plan, due at the time of service.
We accept cash, check, debit card, and credit card for those paying co-pays and self-paying. We are happy to discuss payment plan options as well. It is our policy that payment is made at the time of service. Your insurance benefits will be determined before your second visit, and you will be informed of what, if any, payment is necessary on that date.
