Questions
What should I wear to physical therapy sessions?
Wear loose, comfortable clothing that allows movement access to your area of concern. Athletic wear like shorts, yoga pants, and tee shirts work best. Bring supportive sneakers for exercise portions.
How long does a typical therapy session last?
Sessions run 40-60 minutes with initial evaluations requiring 20 additional minutes. Treatment includes hands-on therapy, therapeutic exercises, and progress assessments tailored to your specific rehabilitation needs.
Do you accept my insurance plan?
We verify benefits for all major insurance providers. Contact our office to confirm coverage details before your first visit, or consult our website's insurance information section for common plan specifics.
What happens if I miss an appointment?
Missed appointments without 24-hour notice incur a $25 fee. Consistent attendance ensures optimal progress tracking and prevents treatment delays, while timely communication helps accommodate other patients.
Can I schedule weekend appointments?
Clinic hours are expanding to meet patient needs. Contact your preferred location directly to discuss weekend availability and current scheduling options based on therapist availability.
How does dry needling work for muscle pain?
Thin filament needles target myofascial trigger points to release muscle knots, improve circulation, and reset neurological pain signals. Most patients experience reduced pain and improved mobility after 2-4 sessions combined with therapeutic exercises.
