Your primary care doctor and specialists may not be the only people you need on your personal wellness team. Many people recovering from injuries or medical conditions need one-on-one care from a physical therapist. Tissue healing, pain management and restoring function are important components of physical therapy. But did you know that PTs can help with proactive wellness goals like injury prevention and many aspects of sports performance training?
The physical therapists at our Forever Fit Bowie, Maryland, location are licensed clinicians. However, they’re also partners in wellness who have the time to give you their full attention and address all of your concerns. Physical therapists can legally see up to three patients an hour. Our PTs see fewer than two patients per hour so you can make the best use of your full appointment time.
Forever Fit Bowie is conveniently located off Highway 197 to serve the residents of Bowie and the surrounding area. This article provides an introduction to the services we offer and the level of care you can expect at our Bowie location.

Physical therapy services at our Bowie location
Physical therapy is about much more than minimizing your pain, though that’s a result for many of our patients. First, we perform in-depth diagnostic testing to find out what’s happening. Then we provide proactive, results-focused care to address all of your treatment goals. The treatments we use are safe and natural. Most involve tissue and joint manipulation, gentle stimulation, or full-body movement.
At Forever Fit, we only want to create treatment plans that support your lifestyle and well-being outside of treatment. We know our patients achieve the best outcomes when they take an active role in planning their treatment and making care decisions. This is why we use clear, accessible language and collaborate with our patients to create plans that make sense to them.

Forever Fit is your Bowie physical therapy treatment center
At our Forever Fit Bowie location, our licensed physical therapists have decades of combined experience between them. We understand that one physical therapy treatment approach won’t work for all of our patients. That’s why we’re committed to providing customized, accessible care for your unique life and your needs.
After an initial consultation, your physical therapist will create a personalized treatment plan according to your specific symptoms and medical history that’s designed to:
- Make physical therapy expertise accessible to you
- Reduce your pain and discomfort, starting at your first visit
- Use your treatment time wisely to create the best results
- Combine evidence-based techniques and adjust them based on what works best for you
- Meet your sports performance goals while ensuring that you can continue training and competing for years to come
Wondering how you’re going to cover the cost of treatment? Physical therapy is covered by most insurance plans, and we also take cash payments. Maryland is a direct access state, which means you don’t need a referral to see a physical therapist either. However, if you have Medicare or an HMO insurance plan, you may need to have a referral for your insurance company to pay for treatment.
