During your consultation, we'll assess your specific condition and create a personalized treatment plan just for you.

💰

"Do you accept my insurance?"

Yes! We accept most major insurance plans including:

Blue Cross Blue Shield
Aetna
Cigna
Medicare
Horizon BCBS
UnitedHealthcare
And many more

We'll verify your benefits before your first visit and explain exactly what's covered.

No surprise bills!

⏰

"How long will my treatment take?"

Most patients see significant improvement within 2-4 weeks, with full recovery typically taking 6-12 weeks. However, every case is different. Factors that affect recovery time include:

Severity of your condition
How long you've had the problem
Your overall health and fitness level
Your commitment to the treatment plan

We'll give you a realistic timeline during your first visit.

🏥

"What should I expect during my first visit?"

Your first visit includes:

Comprehensive evaluation (45–60 minutes)
Movement and strength assessment
Pain level evaluation
Personalized treatment plan creation
Insurance verification and explanation
Your first treatment session

You'll leave knowing exactly what's wrong, how we'll fix it, and when you can expect to feel better.

🩺

"Do I need a doctor's referral?"

New Jersey allows direct access to physical therapy, so NO referral is needed for most conditions. You can schedule directly with us and start treatment immediately.

Exception: Some insurance plans may require a referral for coverage. We'll check your specific benefits and help you get any necessary referrals if needed.

💊

"Will I need surgery or medications?"

In most cases, NO! Our goal is to help you avoid surgery and reduce dependence on pain medications through proven, non-invasive treatments. We use:

Advanced manual therapy techniques
Shockwave therapy
Targeted exercise programs
Movement re-education

Many patients who were told they needed surgery have avoided it completely with our treatment.
