                                                        Frequently Asked Questions

                                                        What should I wear on the first day of physical therapy?
                                                        Please bring shorts and a t-shirt with you if you have a lower back or lower extremity problem. Females with a low back, neck, upper back or upper extremity problem may bring a sports bra, halter top, bathing suit top or choose to use a provided gown. If your referral is specifically for aquatic therapy, please bring a swimsuit so we can get you started in the pool. 

                                                        How long is the initial evaluation?
                                                        The initial evaluations vary from 45 minutes to an hour and a half depending on involved body part(s). 

                                                        Will I see the same physical therapist at every visit?
                                                        Yes, we will try to schedule you with the same therapist at every visit to emphasize continuity of care.  If your therapist is not available, you will be notified and have the option of being scheduled with another therapist.

                                                        Do you offer exercise membership programs?
