ABOUT US

At our clinic, we are dedicated to providing exceptional physical therapy services tailored to each patient's unique needs. Enjoy one-on-one treatment sessions with a Doctor of Physical therapy utilizing cutting-edge techniques to support and enhance your recovery journey.

This practice operates on a cash-based model, allowing us to deliver highly personalized, flexible care without the limitations imposed by health insurance requirements. No referrals are necessary, and you may have immediate access to the care you need. We specialize in treating clients of all ages who are experiencing chronic or acute pain, including joint pain, muscle strains, tendinitis, nerve pain, postoperative rehab, and vertigo. In addition to hands-on manual therapy and myofascial release techniques, we also offer dry needling, an effective technique for pain relief and muscle function restoration.

Beyond rehabilitation, we are dedicated to proactive and preventive care. This includes helping clients learn to exercise safely with existing injuries, prevent further injury, and optimize movement patterns for long-term health and longevity. We also offer customized exercise programs to support specific fitness goals, including safe return-to-sport protocols for athletes of all levels. We often work with competitive high school athletes, or those interested in casual sport hobbies for all ages including pickleball, tennis, or golf. We can cater to any specific activity goals you have!

CASH-BASED MODEL BENEFITS

Navigating the physical therapy insurance system can be a frustrating and confusing experience. The current model often presents significant challenges that affect both the quality and affordability of care.

Key Issues with Insurance and Physical Therapy:

  • Delayed and Subpar Care: Insurance-related delays are common, often leading to postponed treatments. To manage costs, many large physical therapy providers resort to treating multiple patients at once or using physical therapy assistants and aides, which can result in less personalized and lower-quality care.

  • High Costs for Patients: Even with insurance, patients often face high out-of-pocket expenses. This is due to high deductibles and co-pays, which must be paid until the maximum out-of-pocket limit is reached. The costs from prior doctor visits, which are often required before physical therapy can begin, also contribute to the financial burden.

  • Limited Control and Authorization Issues: Insurance companies have significant control over the care you receive. They can dictate which services are covered and may require authorization for a certain number of visits. Delays in getting this authorization are a regular and frustrating occurrence, further delaying necessary treatment
