I have lymphedema, and it's difficult to get appointments at hospital-based clinics -- and when you do, it's usually only around 30-45 minutes of treatment. So when I noticed "CLT" (Certified Lymphedema Therapist) on Dr. DeBorja's practice's window while walking down 36th Street, I was so excited! I've had three or four hour-long appointments with her already and have been so pleased with her care. Dr. DeBorja is knowledgeable, collaborative, and most of all very compassionate. I enjoy our visits -- and my lymphatics do, too! :)

I had been struggling with significant weakness in my hand for years due to idiopathic neuropathy, especially with fine motor tasks. After working with Dr. Angie using StimPod therapy, I noticed real, tangible improvements. I was able to use tools like a nail clipper and a can opener much more easily—things that had become very difficult for me without using my own ways of coping.One of the most meaningful changes was that, when I had a fever in the past, I completely lost the use of my hand. It was terrifying, and I dreaded getting sick again. This year, during my StimPod treatments, I came down with another fever, but did not lose nearly the same strength or mobility, which was a huge difference.I also hadn’t been able to cross my fingers in years due to weakness, and after these sessions, I was finally able to do it again! That was amazing (!) and really showed that something was improving.Dr. Angie is warm, kind, professional, and extremely knowledgeable. She made me feel comfortable and supported throughout the entire process. I’m so grateful to know that it is possible that I can make progress! I would highly recommend her to anyone dealing with neuropathy.

Dr. Angie de Borja is a skillful, compassionate, present and focused practitioner. She assisted, educated and supported me with her deep understanding of the body, in this case my own to a better balance. I heartily recommend her as a practitioner of myofascial therapy.

I’m a 75 year old woman and have been really uncomfortable most of my adult life. Stiff neck, killer low back pain, right hip arthritis. All of this discomfort became too much. I heard about Angie and her progressive techniques. I’ve seen her seven times and am so grateful to her that I can laugh and cry. I am feeling so much more comfortable. Angie is so skillful and compassionate. I can very sincerely recommend Angie. I’m very grateful to her.

Dr. deBorja is an exceptional physical therapist and an absolute gem in her field. From the very beginning, she was incredibly thorough, thoughtful, and attentive, combining strong traditional PT training with advanced techniques like myofascial release. When I came to her, my mobility was severely limited and I was in significant pain and discomfort. Through her skill, patience, and dedication, she helped me regain meaningful movement and reprieve and provided real relief during an extremely challenging time — right up until I ultimately needed spinal surgery.Beyond her technical expertise, Dr. De Borja is kind, empathetic, and truly listens. She treats the whole person, not just the condition, and you can feel how much she genuinely cares about her patients’ progress and well-being. She is extraordinarily talented, compassionate, and professional. I am deeply grateful for the care she provided. I cannot recommend her enough to anyone looking for an outstanding physical therapist.

I’ve been experiencing total body discomfort due to multiple areas of tightness. With only 2 sessions there has been noticeable amounts of relief. There’s still work left to do so I’m already booked for another 3 appointments. FYI she gets booked up fast…

Alright folks — get comfortable, because this one is a bit long.I stumbled across Dr. Angie DeBorja online after realizing I had driven past her office on the avenue countless times without knowing what incredible healing was happening inside.I’ve lived with chronic back pain for over ten years after being struck by a car as a pedestrian, along with other injuries that led to recurring, debilitating flare-ups. Twice those flare-ups put me in the hospital for days at a time. Over the years I’ve seen every kind of traditional doctor, tried every test — X-rays, MRIs, CT scans — taken the medications, followed the protocols. I also explored many alternative therapies, some of which brought short-term relief. But no matter the approach, nothing created lasting change.What hurt almost as much as the pain itself was how unseen I felt. Being told, “At least the scans didn’t show anything!” sounds comforting, but when you’re in severe pain, it feels invalidating. If something had shown up, it would have explained what I was experiencing and given someone something concrete to treat. Instead, I was left feeling unheard, dismissed, and sometimes even subtly accused of it being “in my head.”After my most recent hospitalization, I was completely defeated. At 36, I felt like I had the spine of a 99-year-old. Chronic pain brings with it hopelessness, depression, fear of movement, and a constant background of anxiety. It drains joy from life.Then I found Dr. Angie.Her unassuming office on the avenue has become the first place that has actually helped me in a meaningful, lasting way. Dr. Angie is an extraordinarily attentive listener — you can feel that she is truly present with you, which is incredibly rare. Her work is alternative, but grounded in science, and it feels thoughtful, precise, and deeply respectful of the body.After just four sessions, my nervous system feels completely different. I feel calmer, more stable, and no longer stuck in a constant state of tension. During each session, I could literally feel areas of my body slowly stop guarding — something I didn’t even realize I had been doing all day, every day, even when no danger was present.After my very first session, I felt more embodied in my body than I had in years.My daily pain, which used to sit around a 6–7, is now often a 0–3. And when it does flare up, it’s usually because of things I know I need to manage better — dehydration, stress, or sitting too long.Dr. Angie is an incredibly powerful healer. I honestly could cry with gratitude for finding her. She has given me something I was starting to believe I’d never have again: hope, safety in my body, and a path back to living without constant pain. I highly recommend anyone that's been living with long term chronic pain to see Dr.Angie.

Myofacial release and physical therapy with Dr. Angie has been so helpful. I’ve been managing stuck muscles and chronic pain in my neck and shoulders from an RSI developed in early adulthood. I’m so encouraged that even after 25 years they are easier to unwind after treatments. The hands-on treatments with Dr. Angie is about the best I’ve had! Such bliss. Super grateful to Dr. Angie. It’s amazing to have someone like her in Baltimore. We are blessed.
