Physical Therapy
Physical Therapy is covered by most insurances. Depeding on your insurance coverage, you may have visit limitations, co-insurance or copays. You can call your insurance for specific information. Just fax your insurance information and doctor's prescription to us.
Treatment begins with a physician's prescription. You may bring or fax your patients written prescription to us. Be sure it includes a diagnosis. We make every effort to see our patients as soon as possible after physical therapy is prescribed. Prescriptions may be faxed or phoned in by your physician's office.
