Job description

MovementX Physical Therapist Job Opening in Durham NC

Updated April 15, 2026

We believe that empowered physical therapists will empower their patients. But nowadays, more and more physical therapists in central North Carolina are feeling burnt-out from busy clinic schedules, time-consuming administrative burden, and third-party incentives standing between them and their patients.

That’s why we’re doing things differently.

MovementX was founded by physical therapists for physical therapists. Empowered by a strong referral network, innovative technology, and robust community support, MovementX physical therapists can achieve their full potential as clinicians. Apply today for our available physical therapy jobs in Durham NC to start earning more, treating anywhere, and taking back control of your own schedule.

MovementX was founded by a group of passionate physical therapists who believed there had to be a better way to provide care. Frustrated with the traditional healthcare system’s limitations, they set out to create a more effective and compassionate approach. By prioritizing both patient and provider needs, they aimed to transform lives through movement.

Our mission is to help people move their best so they can live their best. We believe that movement is the most important commodity in our lives—it’s how we walk, work, love, play, and live. If you’re empowered with the autonomy, tools, and resources to practice at your best, we can help more people move and live at their best.

Together, we are pursuing a vision of 100 Thrive In ’25—to have over 100 physical therapists thriving in their careers by the end of 2025.

  • 100 speaks to the breadth of how large we envision our community growing. With over 100 providers around the country, we can truly make the positive impact we seek to make on society.
  • Thrive speaks to the depth of how empowered our community feels. To us, thriving is the opposite of burnout. We want all MX providers to feel fired up, confident, fulfilled, and happy.
  • In ’25 gives us a target to aim our efforts. If we can achieve this vision by the end of 2025, what will we be able to accomplish after that? Opportunity abounds.

Read more about our vision.

Our four core values drive everything we do.

  • Empathy: We always strive to understand and address the needs of others with compassion.
  • Kaizen: The philosophy of continuous improvement, Kaizen ensures we are always evolving and getting better. This is also our annual theme for 2024!
  • Passion x Purpose: When a deep desire to excel is intentionally aimed in a focused direction, impactful and meaningful change becomes possible.
  • Community: Empowering each other through mentorship, collaboration, and a shared commitment to transforming lives through movement lies at the heart of our work.

Our culture is built upon a shared commitment to what’s listed above. We believe in leading with love, striving for excellence, and always seeking to empower and inspire those around us. Our culture deck, known as The MX Way, guides our everyday actions and ensures we create a positive impact.

What You’ll Do

As a MovementX physical therapist in Durham, you’ll take full control of your career with the flexibility and support to do what you love. Here’s what your role will involve and why it’s fundamentally different from traditional practice models:

  • Set Your Own Schedule: Manage your patient load and create a work-life balance that fits your needs. You decide when and how much you work.
  • Set Your Own Rates: You have the freedom to determine your own rates, ensuring that you’re compensated for the value you provide. Full-time providers in central NC typically earn over $110,000 annually with just 4 patient visits per day.
  • Treat Patients Where It Matters: Provide care in a variety of settings—patient’s homes, our clinics throughout the Raleigh-Durham area, or virtually via telehealth—allowing you to offer personalized, convenient care for your clients.
  • Deliver High-Quality Care Without Administrative Burden: Spend more time focusing on patient care while our team handles administrative tasks like billing, troubleshooting, and insurance management.
  • Leverage Technology to Enhance Care: Use our all-in-one platform for scheduling, messaging, and documenting patient visits, helping you streamline your workflow and maximize time with your patients.
  • Contribute to and Benefit From a Thriving Community: Participate in regular meetings, workshops, and knowledge-sharing sessions. Lean on the support of fellow PTs, mentors, and a strong referral network throughout North Carolina that’s committed to your growth and success.
