What are the benefits of working with an out-of-network provider?What you get is what you deserve - the highest professional, responsive care and what PT is meant to be. One-on-one, individual care with a highly trained PT in an individual room. We DO NOT work in an open gym nor work with other patients during your appointment. You will only work with licensed physical therapists - not an exercise trainer, physical therapy assistant, or an aide. We only work with one patient at a time for 60 minutes and and have ample time for observation to ensure proper exercise execution. We do manual work and do not leave you on a hot pack or other machines and equipment by yourself. We connect with your physicians, go to your follow up appointments and communicate with all members of your health care team. We support and take care of you through every step of your rehab process.
