FAQs
If you require additional information, please fill out the contact form. Below are some of the most commonly asked questions by patients
-
Do you accept insurance?I do not work directly with health insurance companies, and the clinic is out-of-network. However, most insurance companies permit out-of-network care. Therefore, you can choose a physical therapist who may not be a participating provider with your insurance company.
-
How can you know if you have out-of-network benefits?The best approach is to call your insurance company and ask about your deductible, out-of-pocket, and co-payment. It is important to know how much has been met for your deductible and out-of-pocket for the year. Finally, we need to know if a pre-authorization is required for physical therapy treatment. We can also handle it for you if you want. We need a picture of your insurance card (front and back) and your date of birth.
-
Why don't you accept insurance?I aim to provide my patients with the best, most efficient, and excellent treatment. I provide one-on-one personal care and private sessions without the help of Physical Therapist Assistants or Aides. Compared to an insurance-based clinic, I help most people in a minimum of sessions, which saves time and money.
-
Do I need a referral from a physician?No. Florida State Law allows patients to receive treatment directly without a doctor's referral for up to 30 days.

What is the difference between physical therapy and European osteopathy?The purposes of Physical therapy is to releave pain, to restore functional movement after injury or as prevention. Physical therapists can use several tools, such as manual therapy, physiotherapy and rehabilitation exercises. European osteopathy is manual therapy using craniosacral therapy, visceral manipulation and muskuloskeletal technics. The purpose of European osteopathy is to restore all the body motions (bones, joints, facias, organes). Both are focus on the cause of the issue and are complementary. When my patient asks me this question, I always use the example of ankle sprain injury. After an ankle sprain, you need European osteopathy session to adjust the posture, bones and tissus but you also need rehabilitation to stabilize the joints for optimal healing.
