Not all insurances require a referral to be seen by a physical therapist. Please check with your insurance prior to your initial evaluation.
The quality and speed of your recovery depend largely on you. The time and effort you invest in your therapy program will help you enjoy the best possible outcome.
Your physical therapist will maintain a careful record of your progress and periodically re-evaluate your condition. You are encouraged to ask questions and openly discuss problems.
During your initial visit, the physical therapist will evaluate your condition. This involves reviewing your health history, determining how you could benefit from physical therapy, outlining treatment goals and developing a plan.
