What should I wear? Please wear comfortable clothing. We have lockers and a shower and changing room available.
Do I need to bring anything with me to the 1st appointment? Please bring your insurance card and a picture ID so that we can enter them in our system. Also bring a list of any medication you are currently taking.
How long will the appointments last? Your 1st appointment will last from 1 hour to 1.5 hours. Follow up appointments should be about an hour.
Will I be treatment by someone different each time? No. On the 1st appointment you will meet with the Physical Therapist for an evaluation which will allow the Therapist to customize a treatment plan specific to your needs.
During your follow up appointments you will meet with the same team each time, consisting of your Physical Therapist, the Physical Therapist Assistant (PTA) and a Tech, depending on what treatment you need.
This personalized method helps us stay familiar with your treatment and get to know you best. We feel this is a key to making sure you get the best possible care!
How many treatments will I need? The length of treatment will depend on what your doctor has ordered and what the Therapist determines is needed to get you the best outcome. We can work within any limitations your insurance company may have, and will let you know that on the 1st appointment.
Can I come to Physical Therapy if I don't have a referral from my doctor? YES! No referral is necessary (as long as you have private insurance). By law we can treat your for 30 days, it's called Direct Access.
How much will each appointment cost me? Prior to your 1st appointment, we will get your insurance information, check your benefits and let you know how much each appointment will cost.
I'm nervous, in pain, and not sure what to expect. That's totally normal! You will feel much more comfortable after your 1st appointment when the therapist will sit down with you and talk things over to explain your treatment plan. We are going to do everything we can to ease the pain. We see many hurting people, and we know how you feel. Many of them start out feeling the way you do now. But we have found that if you give us a little time, we will have you smiling again...and actually wanting to come to your appointments (really, it's true!). But don't just take our word for it.
