Our teams are ready to help

We have dedicated staff members that have a genuine interest in every aspect of your health care from your initial visit, through your treatment and beyond.


Your physical therapist will perform a thorough physical evaluation regarding your current condition and will recommend a plan of care including the frequency (number of visits per week) and duration (total weeks) of treatment. You will also discuss the types of treatments you will be receiving and you will be assigned a home exercise program to supplement your treatment sessions for you to begin immediately.


The initial evaluation and subsequent treatment sessions will last around 45-60 minutes each and we recommend wearing loose fitting clothing that will easily allow you to expose the area we will be evaluating.


Don't forget to arrive about 15 minutes before your first scheduled appointment to allow time to fill out paperwork and go over your insurance benefits with one of our amazing Client Services Advocate.

Physical therapy is a healthcare profession that plays a crucial role in helping people recover from injuries, manage chronic conditions, and improve their overall well-being. Despite its proven benefits, several misconceptions and myths surround physical therapy. This blog post aims to debunk these myths and provide you with the facts about physical therapy. Myth 1: Physical therapy is only for injuries and accidents. Fact : W hile physical therapy is highly effective in treating injuries and aiding in post-accident recovery, its scope extends far beyond that. Physical therapy can address a wide array of health concerns, including vertigo, arthritis, concussions, neurological disorders, and chronic pain conditions. It is also a valuable tool for injury prevention and promoting overall health and wellness. Physical therapists can help you optimize your movement, improve balance, and enhance your functional abilities, regardless of whether you have a specific injury or not. Myth 2: Physical therapy is painful. Fact : Physical therapists prioritize your comfort and work diligently to minimize any pain or discomfort during treatment. They utilize various techniques to facilitate healing and restore movement while staying within your pain tolerance. Modalities such as anti-gravity treadmills and pool/hydrotank therapy are used at several locations to provide a more comfortable and supportive environment for rehabilitation. Communication is key, and physical therapists encourage patients to provide feedback so they can adjust their approach accordingly. Myth 3: Physical therapy is only for athletes. Fact : Physical therapy benefits individuals of all ages (4+) and abilities, not just athletes. Whether you are a professional athlete striving to regain peak performance or someone who simply wants to improve their quality of life and daily functioning, physical therapy can help you achieve your goals. It is tailored to each individual's unique needs and circumstances. Myth 4: Physical therapy is expensive. Fact : Physical therapy is often covered by insurance plans, making it an accessible healthcare option for many. Furthermore, it can be a cost-effective approach in the long term by preventing injuries and potentially reducing the need for more expensive interventions like surgery. Direct access to physical therapy, which allows you to seek treatment without a physician's referral, can save both time and money. Myth 5: Physical therapy is time-consuming. Fact : Physical therapy sessions typically last about an hour, and the frequency of sessions per week varies depending on individual needs. While it requires an investment of time, the long-lasting benefits of physical therapy are significant. Improved mobility, reduced pain, and enhanced quality of life are just some of the rewards. Myth 6: Physical therapy is only effective if you do it for a long time. Fact : Many people begin to experience noticeable improvements from physical therapy within just a few weeks. A typical plan of care often spans about 4-6 weeks, followed by a transition to a home exercise program to maintain progress and prevent recurrence of issues. The goal is to empower you to manage your condition independently. Myth 7: Physical therapy is only about exercise. Fact : While exercise is an important component of physical therapy, it is not the sole focus. Physical therapists utilize a diverse range of techniques, including manual stretching, soft tissue massage, electrical stimulation, heat, ice, and compression. They also prioritize patient education, explaining the condition and the importance of movement to facilitate healing. Exercise is just one piece of a comprehensive and individualized treatment plan.
