Frequently Asked Questions
-
Cash-based physical therapy means you pay directly for your care rather than going through insurance. This allows for longer, one-on-one sessions with a Doctor in Physical Therapy - no hand-offs to techs or aides and complete, personalized care from the comfort of your home.
Healing isn’t one-size-fits-all, and your care shouldn’t be limited by insurance rules. Cash-based physical therapy gives you the freedom to address changing symptoms without needing new referrals or additional doctor visits - avoiding extra appointments, extra costs and delays in care.

Insurance-based clinics often require seeing multiple patients at once, limited visit time, and dictate what can and (can’t) be treated. By staying cash-based, I can focus entirely on you, your goals, and your recovery during and outside of standard business hours.

While I don’t bill insurance directly, you may be able to submit a “superbill” to your insurance for potential reimbursement. Coverage varies by each plan, so be sure to check your benefits. I am happy to provide documentation if needed!
