Frequently Asked Questions

What is physical therapy?
Physical Therapists are specially trained in the examination and treatment of musculoskeletal and neuromuscular problems that affect a person’s ability to move and function efficiently in his/her daily life. A Physical Therapist can help reduce pain and restore function for patients with injuries, as well as provide preventative programs and promote general health and fitness.
Why is physical therapy effective?
Injuries, disease, and aging can wreak havoc on your body, leaving you with a level of difficulty in performing normal, basic movements. Physical therapy can be effective in helping you regain your movement and heal faster. It can make simple things like walking, bouncing a basketball, or typing at a computer easier. Physical therapy teaches you special exercises that can help strengthen weakened muscles and increase range of motion to help you move and function with increased ease.
How long are the appointments?
Your one-on-one initial evaluation is approximately one hour. Please arrive 10-15 minutes early if you do not fill out paperwork electronically prior to the visit. Follow up sessions range anywhere from 30 minutes to 1 hour, depending on how you feel.
What health insurance do you accept?
We accept most major insurances. Please call us and we’ll gladly check with your insurance company.
What can I expect on my first visit?
The therapist will ask you about the history of your injury. Depending on your injury, we may take measurements, and depending on your pain level, we may even start treatment on your first visit.
What should I wear?
Something comfortable, loose, and easily movable for us to access the area in pain. For example, if you are coming in for knee pain, please bring or wear shorts or loose pants that can be pulled up over the knee.

We are bathrooms that are easily accessible and changing areas if you are going to or coming from work.

How long should I expect to undergo physical therapy?
We believe that each person has unique needs. All patients are carefully evaluated and then are recommended an appropriate treatment plan. At the time of your evaluation, we will be better able to determine an effective timeframe for your treatment.
What if I don’t have insurance or do not want to use my insurance?
Our Self-Pay Rates:
First appointment – Evaluation and treatment as needed $120
