Frequently Asked Questions
What should I expect during physical therapy sessions?
Do I need a referral from my doctor before attending Physical Therapy?
Delaware does allow direct access to physical therapy services, meaning patients can receive treatment from a physical therapist without a physician’s referral.
What do I need to wear or bring with me?
You should dress in comfortable, loose clothing that allows you to move easily and doesn’t restrict circulation. Depending on your condition, your physical therapist may also recommend special shoes or a brace. You should also bring any paperwork related to your medical history, including x-rays, ultrasounds, and doctor’s notes.
Is there anything I can do before my appointment to prepare?
Yes! Make sure you arrive for your session well-rested so that you can give it your full attention and energy. It is also helpful if you keep track of how much pain medication (if any) you take prior to the appointment so that the physical therapist can adjust the intensity of treatment accordingly.
How long will my physical therapy sessions last?
Sessions typically last 30-60 minutes depending on your condition and the types of techniques used. Your physical therapist will give you an estimate when you first arrive for your appointment.
Are there any exercises I can do at home between appointments to help improve my condition?
Yes! Your physical therapist may provide specific exercise recommendations for you to try in between visits, which will help speed up your recovery and progress faster toward reaching your goals. It’s important to follow these carefully and always check with your PT before starting a new exercise program if you have any questions or concerns.
What if I have questions after my physical therapy session?
Your physical therapist should be available to answer any questions or concerns you may have about your treatment plan before and after each visit. You can also contact the practice directly for further assistance. We want you to get the most out of every session!
Will insurance cover my physical therapy?
It depends on your insurance plan. Most plans cover some or all of the costs associated with physical therapy, but you should check with your provider to determine coverage and any associated fees.
How often will I need to attend physical therapy sessions?
The frequency of visits will depend on your individual goals and condition, but typically it is recommended that patients attend 2-3 times per week for a minimum of 4-6 weeks in order to maximize results. Your therapist will provide more details during your initial appointment.
How long will it take for me to see results?
Every person’s situation is unique; therefore the amount of time needed to reach goals varies. With commitment and dedication from both you and your physical therapist, you can expect to start seeing results within a few weeks. The more positive lifestyle changes you make, the faster your progress will be!
Will my physical therapist be able to answer any questions I have about my condition?
Yes! Your physical therapist should be available to discuss any concerns or questions you have regarding your condition or treatment plan. Don’t hesitate to bring up any issues that may arise during the course of therapy.
What if I feel too much pain during a session?
If at any time during your physical therapy session you experience increased pain, it’s important to let your therapist know so they can adjust the intensity or technique as necessary. Your therapist will work with you to make sure that treatment is comfortable and effective for you.
How will I know when I no longer need physical therapy?
Your physical therapist should be able to provide guidance on when it is appropriate to stop attending physical therapy sessions based on your progress, goals, and overall health status. It’s important to listen to your therapist and continue with treatment until they feel you are ready to move on.
How would you describe your practice’s overall mission in one sentence?
We empower our older adult community to live a long, healthy, independent life. We treat people, not just conditions. Family type culture work place. We are all in it for the right reasons. Integrity and compassion.
What makes your practice’s approach to physical therapy unique compared to others in your area?
We work 1:1 with every patient in the privacy and relevancy of their own home.
What emotions or feelings do you want patients to experience when they first visit your website?
They love that we come to them, the level of experience we have, and that they get results. They also feel prioritized and cared about.
What are the key things your patients often say about your practice that you’d want new patients to know?
What do you believe patients should understand about their recovery journey with you before they even book an appointment?
We take our time at the first visit to fully evaluate what is going on and what is important to the patient to get back to doing/ feeling. We develop a plan of care around these goals and make sure they know what to do at each step. They can expect to work with the same therapist the entire time and that they will have that 1:1 attention with their PT. The PT’s on our team are highly experienced and pride themselves on treating holistically.
How does your practice personalize care to each patient’s needs, and why is this important for their recovery?
Our patients never have to share their recovery time with any other patient during their session. They will have their own designated therapist who they work with and no one else. The continuity of care improves outcomes and patient satisfaction. The therapist gets to know the patient and their home environment so that each visit is optimized, personalized, comprehensive, and effective.
