How do I get started with physical therapy treatment at ProActive?

An initial evaluation will need to be set up with one of our licensed physical therapists. Patients should show up about 15 minutes early for their first appointment to fill out insurance information and past medical history information. Patients can also pick up these sheets days before their scheduled appointments and fill them out at home. Patients should bring their prescriptions, health insurance cards, related X-rays or MRIs, and any medical forms or lists that would be pertinent to their care.

What will treatment consist of with a physical therapist?

A patient will see a physical therapist for their initial evaluation. The therapist will perform an evaluation and will set up an individualized plan of care for the patient. Treatments can include soft tissue work, specific exercises, stretching, range of motion exercises, and modalities (specialized machines to help improve symptoms). The therapists work closely with referring physicians to provide complete patient care.

How long do physical therapy appointments normally last? 

The initial appointment usually lasts 45 to 60 minutes. Most physical therapy appointments will last 30 to 45 minutes. Supervised therapeutic exercise may also be incorporated into the plan of care, and this will usually take another 15 to 30 minutes.
We recommend that patients schedule ahead with our front desk staff to ensure that they get in for the prescribed number of appointments around times that are acceptable.

What should I wear to physical therapy appointments?

A patient should wear comfortable clothes so that the therapists can evaluate and treat the injured areas. The patient should also wear something comfortable to work out in. Physical therapy works intimately with the supervised therapeutic exercise personnel to optimize independence, strength, and function.

Will the physical therapist prescribe any exercise?


ProActive aspires to not only improve specific rehabilitative conditions, but also to improve the overall health and activity patterns of each patient during physical therapy treatment. ProActive continues a person’s recovery in physical therapy by designing an exercise prescription not only to rehabilitate the injury, but to condition the entire body. The physical therapist will also often prescribe take-home exercise to increase the success of treatment.

Can I get a consultation about physical therapy?

A free 15-minute consultation can be set up with a physical therapist to determine if a patient needs physical therapy. Our front desk staff will set up your consultation.

Does ProActive do in-home physical therapy?

Yes. ProActive can provide in-home physical therapy services through many insurances, including Medicare. This allows a physical therapist to come to your home and help with functional activities until you are able to get to our facility safely.

Will my insurance cover physical therapy treatment?

ProActive accepts most insurance plans (see list of companies below). Coverage varies based on individual policy plans. Some insurance plans require a physician’s prescription in order to receive physical therapy coverage benefits (ie. Medicare). You can check with your insurance plan to see if this applies. Please be aware that verification of physical therapy benefits is not a guarantee of payment. You are responsible for full payment of physical therapy services rendered at ProActive.
If you do not have health insurance and/or wish to not go through personal health insurance, you will be billed at a set self-pay rate. 45, or 60 minute self-pay appointments are available.
