No! You do not need a referral from a physician, you can come see us directly!
Please allow 60 minutes for your first visit. This will provide us with time to have a thorough conversation about your history, health, and goals for therapy, as well as a full evaluation and beginning treatment. Follow up visits are also one hour, one on one with a licensed physical therapist. We will never pass you off to a tech or aide during your treatment session.
The evaluation includes a full body assessment, such as posture, breathing, various movement assessments, and strength. We also assess the external pelvic girdle structures and muscles around the spine. In many cases, a pelvic floor internal exam is performed, as these muscles are located inside the pelvis and this assessment gives us a wider range of information. If you have questions about any portion of this, please call us prior to the initial appointment. We are happy to answer any questions!
This depends on your condition and your needs. Your body and your case are unique! We will schedule weekly sessions when we schedule your first visit so you can get started with a consistent care plan right away. You and your therapist will discuss what to expect at your first visit.
We recommend wearing comfortable clothes that are easy to move around in, such as non-tight fitting exercise clothes. If you have symptoms while exercising, we advise wearing the shoes you typically work out in. It is helpful to wear something that is easy to change in and out of, as a pelvic floor assessment may be part of the evaluation.
Yes! Babies are 100% welcome in the clinic.
