What is physical therapy?
Physical therapy is a healthcare service that helps people improve mobility, strength, and function while reducing pain through various exercises, manual therapy, and techniques. It’s used to treat injuries, manage chronic conditions, and recover post-surgery.
Do I need a referral from my doctor?
In most cases, you don’t need a referral to start physical therapy. However, some insurance providers require a referral, so check with your insurance company, or you can call us for assistance.
What should I expect during my first visit?
Your first visit will include an assessment with one of our licensed physical therapists. We will discuss your medical history, perform a physical examination, and work with you (and your doctor) to create a personalized treatment plan.
How long are the sessions, and how often will I need to come?
Sessions typically last between 45 minutes to 1 hour. The frequency of visits depends on your condition, goals, and treatment plan, but most patients attend 1-3 times per week.
Do you accept insurance, and what insurance plans do you accept?
Yes, we accept most major insurance plans. Please call us or visit our insurance page to see the full list of accepted providers. Our staff can also help you understand your coverage and benefits.
What types of conditions do you treat?
We treat a wide range of conditions, including sports injuries, joint pain, post-operative recovery, chronic pain, and neurological conditions, among others. Our therapists are experienced in treating both acute and chronic conditions.
What should I wear to my appointment?
Wear comfortable, loose-fitting clothing that allows for movement. For lower body issues, shorts or loose pants are ideal, while tank tops or T-shirts work well for upper body treatments.
How long will it take to recover?
Recovery times vary depending on the individual, condition, and consistency with exercises. Your therapist will provide a timeline based on your specific needs and monitor your progress along the way.
Can I continue physical therapy exercises at home?
Yes! We provide home exercise programs tailored to your condition to support your recovery outside of our sessions. Following these exercises is key to achieving long-term results.
What should I do if I experience pain after a session?
Some mild soreness is normal as your body adapts to therapy, but it shouldn’t be severe. If you experience intense or unusual pain, please contact your therapist for advice.
