​

What should I expect at my first visit?

I will review your medical history, medications, home/work environment, and perform a thorough assessment to properly evaluate your condition. You should wear loose fitting clothes if possible and have comfortable footwear available.   I like to evaluate you based on what you do normally at home, so if you normally walk around barefoot that is totally fine.  We will then discuss the findings, provide home exercises, and formulate a treatment plan.  Visits typically last an hour and pelvic health visits may be closer to 90 minutes. 

 

What will I have to do in between visits?

It is very important to do your home exercise program!  I can't state the importance of this enough.  While therapy is important to help you get better, what you do outside of therapy is just as important. Good home exercise compliance leads to better and faster results. I know that motivation can be tough and many of us are pressed for time. I provide you with simple exercises that can be done in just a few minutes, but also work on multiple things at once, so you don't have to do as many. 

​

Do I need to get a doctor’s order for physical therapy?

While it is preferred that you obtain one, it is not always necessary. We can reach out to your doctor after your first visit, if needed, to communicate any concerns, goals, and/or your PT plan of care.  If we are seeing you for a condition not previously evaluated by your doctor, after 30 days we need to have an order and a signed plan of care to continue therapy.

​

Do I need to be "homebound" to receive therapy from you?

No, that is for traditional homecare only. We are an outpatient therapy provider so you do not need to be homebound. 

​

Isn’t it better if I go to a "regular" clinic?

A huge advantage of doing therapy at home is that it is a huge time saver.   Traveling to an outpatient clinic can be very time consuming, difficult to fit into a busy schedule, and for some can be quite tiring.  With us that is not an issue.  You also don't have to worry about transportation logistics if a family member doesn't drive. 

All of the equipment that is needed for your rehabilitation is brought to your home, making it just as effective as a traditional outpatient clinic. This includes weights, bands, elastic tubes, balance foam, balance boards, steps, Swiss balls, and a portable bike.  For those who wish to have their own, we an provide a link for easy ordering.  The best part is that you receive one-on-one care for the entire session!

​

What areas do you travel to?  

Our home base is in the Waterford Lakes area of East Orlando. We generally travel within a 15 minute radius of that area. Anything beyond that will be determined on a case by case basis. For areas that are beyond that 15 minute radius, there is a $30 travel fee. 

​

Do you accept insurance or Medicare?

We contract with two companies who accept many insurance plans and Medicare. I would still be your therapist but I leave all of the admin work to them. This allows me to spend my time on what I do best, working with my patients and clients!  If your insurance is not accepted, I can work with you on a self pay/cash basis and can provide a superbill upon request.  We have many self pay/cash clients as well.

​

What forms of payment do you accept?

Zelle, Venmo, check, cash, or credit card are accepted.  Checks can be made out to Total Care Physical Therapy and Wellness LLC.

Does insurance pay for personal training visits?

No, these visits are typically a self pay/out of pocket service.
