Dr. Peter Yu (PT, DPT, CSCS, Cert-DN, TPI-1, USAW, USAT, CF-L1)

Founder, Performance Physical Therapist

Growing up as an athlete, Peter always valued an active healthy lifestyle and has a tremendous interest in optimizing human body performance. He received his Bachelors of Science in Exercise Science and Sports Studies with a double minor in Nutrition and Psychology from Rutgers University and obtained his Doctorate of Physical Therapy from the Medical University of South Carolina.

After seeing what the level and standard of care in a traditional insurance physical therapy model was like with seeing 2–3 patients at the same time, and not having the right environment to load up higher level athletes, he set out on a mission to provide a better healthcare alternative for athletes & active individuals which resulted in the start of MOTION RX in 2019.

Since then, MOTION RX has grown tremendously to 2 locations with one in Jacksonville and one in Tampa and has impacted thousands of individuals get out of pain and get back to the activities they love.

MOTION RX is highly regarded in Florida as one of the leading sports performance and ortho-pelvic companies to spearhead a new approach to modern healthcare.

In his free time, Peter enjoys working out, running, playing pickleball, and spending time with his family. You can catch him currently training to break sub 5 minutes in the 1 mile distance and sub 18 minutes in the 5k distance!

Frequently Asked Questions

Have questions about how MotionRX helps athletes and active individuals move pain-free?

Many of our patients and clients continue to work with us proactively on a monthly basis after they finish their plan of care. This maintenance program called “Continuity Care” allows us to make sure our clients don’t let injuries or pains get in the way of their health and wellness goals.

We understand that your time is valuable and trust that you will be compliant with your program outside of our clinic and this allows us to be less frequent with your visits and ultimately get you back to your goals quicker.

Our patients usually are seen 1x per week for the initial 2-3 visits to make sure you are progressing appropriately and to get you out of pain as soon as possible. From there, once the pain is minimal and we are able to progress with more functional movement, we spread out the remaining visits every 2-3 weeks so that you can work the exercise program we provide you and TRULY achieve your goals and get the results you deserve.

This will be dependent on the severity of the injury and limitations found within your evaluation by your Doctor of Physical Therapy (DPT). Typically our patients are seen anywhere from 8-12 visits in a to get rid of the pain, address the root cause, and implement a long term solution to prevent the issue from coming back again in the future.

Each visit—evaluation and all follow-up visits— is 60 minutes long. You will receive one-on-one care for the full hour with your Doctor of Physical Therapy for each and every session.

Please wear athletic clothing and sneakers that allows you to move freely without any limitations. You will be moving so dress appropriately!

On your first visit, you and your Doctor of Physical Therapy will have a detailed conversation about your injury, pain, or limitation, your training history, goals, and any questions you have. From there, we go through a detailed movement assessment to figure out the root cause(s) of the issue and we will give you a clear, concrete answer to what is going on and how we are going to resolve this issue together. We then put together a holistic approach and program to help get you back to the activities and sports you enjoy pain free!

Absolutely! We would love to be a part of your recovery journey. Our team works with clients of all activity levels and ages—ranging from 8 to 88. We truly believe that if you have a body—you are an athlete!
