Hi, I’m Dr. Caitlin Long
Owner | Physical Therapist and Strength Coach
After working in traditional orthopedic clinics, I became frustrated with the limitations of insurance-driven care. I was expected to see 3–4 people an hour, and honestly—it never felt right. I couldn’t give patients the time, attention, or quality of care they truly needed.
So I created Built to Move with one goal: to treat fewer people, but serve them better. Mind blown, right? Now, I give every patient a full hour of one-on-one care, every time—so we can dive deep, make progress faster, and actually get you back to doing what you love.
Whether you’re healing from an injury, dealing with pelvic floor issues, or navigating postpartum recovery, you’ll get personalized, expert care rooted in movement, clarity, and results.
