My evidence-based approach focuses on improving mobility, reducing pain, and restoring function through individualized treatment strategies.

How do I know if I need physical therapy?

If you are experiencing persistent pain, limited range of motion, or difficulty performing daily activities, physical therapy may help. A comprehensive evaluation will determine if you would benefit from PT and allow for an individualized treatment plan

What can I expect during my first physical therapy session?

Your first visit includes a thorough assessment to understand your symptoms, movement patterns, and lifestyle factors. Based on this evaluation, I will develop a personalized treatment plan that may include manual therapy techniques, exercises, and patient education.

How do manual therapy techniques help in my recovery?

Manual therapy helps by reducing pain and inflammation, increasing joint mobility, and improving tissue mobility. Techniques such as soft tissue mobilization, joint mobilizations, and myofascial release are used to enhance movement and support the healing process.

Can physical therapy help me avoid or delay surgery?

In many cases, early intervention with physical therapy can reduce pain, improve function, and avoid or delay the need for surgery. By addressing the root cause of your discomfort through targeted exercise and manual therapy, we aim to enhance your quality of life and potentially postpone more invasive procedures.

What is blood flow restriction therapy and how can it help me?

Blood flow restriction (BFR) therapy is a specialized technique that uses a controlled pressure cuff to restrict blood flow to working muscles during exercise. This method allows you to achieve the benefits of higher intensity training while using lighter loads, which can enhance strength, promote muscle growth, reduce inflammation and pain, and support rehabilitation without overstressing injured tissues.

How long will my physical therapy treatment last?

The duration of treatment varies depending on your specific condition and individual goals. Some patients notice improvements after just a few sessions, while others may benefit from a longer-term rehabilitation plan to achieve lasting results.

Most people require a minimum of 4 to 6 weeks of treatment twice a week for their treatment plan.

Are your services covered by insurance?

Yes, many of our services are covered by a variety of insurance plans. We work with major providers including Medicare, Medicaid, Blue Cross Blue Shield, Mountain Health Co-op, Aetna, Pacific Source, workers’ compensation, and auto insurance. In addition, for those who are self-insured or have alternative health insurance, cash pay options are available, and a superbill can be generated to help you submit claims to your insurer if needed.

How do you customize treatment plans for individual needs?

Each treatment plan is tailored to your unique diagnosis, symptoms, and lifestyle. I combine clinical expertise with patient feedback to ensure that the therapy addresses both the root causes and the functional limitations you may be experiencing. Each patient has goals they would like to achieve, and we work to meet those goals.

How can I schedule an appointment or learn more about your services?

You can schedule an appointment or request additional information by contacting the clinic directly via phone or by using the online contact form on the website. I look forward to helping you achieve better health and improved mobility.
