Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions from athletes and active adults near Burbank getting started with PT.
No referral is needed to get started. California's direct access law allows you to begin physical therapy for up to 45 days without seeing a physician first. You can schedule a free phone consult right away and we'll take it from there. If your case eventually benefits from physician coordination, we'll help walk you through that step.
Each visit is a full 55 minutes with your physical therapist — one-on-one, every time. No techs, no aides, no assembly-line care. We'll track your progress, coach you through your exercises, and adjust your plan of care based on how you're responding. Most people come in one to two times per week and then scale back as they get stronger and more confident.
Not typically. We believe active, intelligent training is part of recovery for most injuries. We'll adjust your volume, intensity, or specific exercises as needed, but the goal is always to keep you moving toward your sport and your performance targets — not to park you on the sideline while you wait to feel better.
Cash-based PT means every session is a full 55 minutes of focused, one-on-one attention — not 15 minutes with a therapist and the rest with a tech. You get a plan of care built around your actual goals, direct access to your clinician every visit, and more targeted progress. HSA and FSA are accepted, and superbills are available for potential out-of-network reimbursement.
Dress like you're heading to the gym — athletic shorts or leggings and a t-shirt work well. If you're coming in for a running or lower-body issue, bring your current training shoes. If your concern is related to lifting, be ready to walk through some key movements so we can get a full picture of what's going on and build the right plan of care from day one.
