Does insurance cover my treatment?

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 do not hesitate to contact our office. We do offer different payment options for your convenience.

Will it hurt?

Physical therapy is not meant to hurt, but to relieve pain. However, as you restore your mobility, pain levels, at times can fluctuate. You might experience temporary soreness from stretching through scar tissue and using muscles that are weakened or recovering. This is a normal response to therapy treatment. Good communication with your therapist will help minimize discomfort. We want you on your way to quick pain relief and back to normal activities.

What should I bring to my first appointment?

Please have your prescription and insurance card available when you call. This will allow us to verify your insurance benefits and provide you with an estimate of coverage.

To bring on your first visit:

• A prescription (if needed) for physical therapy from your referring physician, ARNP, or PA.
• Insurance information (we will make a copy of your card).
• Print out the patient forms, fill them out, and bring them with you.

What is physical therapy?

Physical therapists are medical experts in soft tissue, musculoskeletal and neurological conditions. Our physical therapists are experts in the evaluation and treatment of human movement impairments which underlie soft tissue disease and pain. Our physical therapists evaluate your movement patterns, identify the cause of your pain, and work to eliminate it.
While every patient’s condition and pain is unique, your physical therapist will use a variety of gentle hands-on techniques, exercises, and equipment to relieve pain quickly and restore your function to optimum levels.
