Hi, I’m Dr. Nicolas Maza, Doctor of Physical Therapy and proud Texas native.

From an early age, I’ve always had a passion for serving others and improving the lives of those in my community. That passion led me to complete my Doctor of Physical Therapy at the University of St. Augustine, and later to spend years as the director of a high-volume outpatient clinic. During that time, I saw firsthand how our healthcare system often limits patients’ care, rushed visits, insurance barriers, and treatment models that don’t prioritize the individual.

I knew people deserved better. That’s why I founded Maza Movement and Recovery to create a space where every patient receives the time, attention, and personalized care they need to feel and perform at their best. My mission is to serve the active community of New Braunfels by helping runners, lifters, athletes, and everyday movers stay pain-free, break the frustrating cycle of injury, and continue doing what they love.

Outside the clinic, I love spending time outdoors, staying active, and enjoying life with family and friends. My three pups Sadie, Ghost, and Maddie keep me on my toes and bring a lot of joy to my life. Whether I’m catching live music, finding a great speakeasy, or just being outside in the Texas sun, I believe in living the same active lifestyle I encourage my patients to pursue.

At the heart of Maza Movement and Recovery is a simple truth: you deserve care that empowers you to move well, recover fully, and live the life you want without unnecessary restrictions.

At Maza Movement and Recovery, we offer 1-on-1, individualized, patient-centered care designed to restore your mobility, rebuild strength, and help you achieve your unique performance goals—whatever they may be.

We empower the communities of Central Texas to enjoy the activities they love and reach their full movement potential—whether that’s chasing kids and pets, lifting pain-free, or crushing a PR.

“I've worked with Nick for two separate injuries—first for shoulder pain, and later after breaking my foot and ankle. Both occasions the care was outstanding. Nick’s knowledge of the body and rehab process is clear from day one. He tailored each treatment plan to my specific needs, using a variety of equipment to target the right areas and support me in recovery. Nick’s expertise, professionalism, and calming presence made the recovery process feel much less overwhelming. I can’t recommend him enough!”
