Physical Therapy Clinic Moving in Boston and MetroWest

Book the glazier and any contractor first, since mirrors and floor-mounted equipment have to come down before the gym can be emptied and go up after it is set. Then schedule the move for a weekend, on request, so Monday patients are seen at the new clinic.

The building decides how hard the gym is to move. A clinic in a former retail bay usually has a wide rear door and a flat path, so a treadmill rolls straight from truck to floor. A clinic upstairs in a medical or orthopedic building means a booked elevator, and we get the cab's inside length before the date, because treadmills are long. When property management wants our certificate of insurance first, we send it on request.

Treadmills and mat tables are the two items that tip, because their weight sits high once they are on a dolly. Before either one leaves the room, the mat table comes down to its lowest height and the treadmill deck is folded or strapped the way the maker's manual describes. Rubber gym flooring marks easily under dolly wheels, so both clinics get runners along the route.

Plates and dumbbells are packed a handful at a time, in the smallest cartons, and the racks ride bare. Balance and rehab gear is boxed by area. Paper intake forms, plans of care, and anything else with patient details remain in staff hands. Front desk and documentation stations are unhooked, padded, and wired back in where your floor plan shows; scheduling and documentation software is your IT contact's responsibility.
