Frequently Answered Questions
How can physical therapy help me?
Our therapists will work with you to identify the cause of your pain or movement dysfunction, treat said cause and then educate you on how to make lasting lifestyle changes to prevent re-injury.
Does my insurance cover physical therapy?
Yes, in most cases it does. Our office will be happy to assist in contacting your insurance company and determining your coverage based on your individual policy. For more information, visit our insurance information page and please do not hesitate to contact our office.
What should I expect on my first visit?
Bring your ID, insurance card, referral if applicable, and imaging results available.
Please arrive 15 minutes early to complete any remaining paperwork so you can maximize your time in your evaluation.
The initial evaluation consists of obtaining a thorough past medical history, testing your functional movement, flexibility, and strength, and assessing your balance. You and your therapist will then work together to come up with a plan to help you reach your goals.
How long will my physical therapy session last?
Your Initial Evaluation with a Doctor of Physical Therapy will be approximately one hour with subjective questions, objective movement assessments, and developing your home exercise program.
Follow-Up sessions will last approximately 30 minutes, 1 on 1 with your physical therapist, with the potential to have your exercise therapy routine extend the session approximately 10-30 minutes.
What should I wear?
Dress comfortably with clothes that allow easy access for the therapist to examine your problem areas. For treatments, loose fitting clothes that are comfortable for gentle exercises and supportive sneakers are often good choices to wear.
What if I don’t have insurance?
For patients who do not have insurance, we offer a discounted fee, due at the time of service.
