What types of conditions do you treat?
The Pilates PT treats a variety of orthopedic and women's health conditions such as:
-Spine: Back, SI joint, neck pain and headaches
-Sciatica, cervical/lumbar radiculopathy
-Shoulder, hip, knee, and foot/ankle pain
-Chronic pain
-Sports injuries: tendonitis, sprains/strains
-Prenatal & Postnatal
-Women's Health: Diastasis Recti, pelvic organ prolapse, urinary frequency, pelvic pain (including pain with intercourse or gynecological exams), vaginismus & Urinary Incontinence (stress, urge, and mixed incontinence)
Do I need a referral from my Doctor for Physical Therapy?
No, you can come in directly for a Physical Therapy evaluation and receive treatment without a referral from your Physician.
Do you accept my insurance?
The Pilates PT is a fee for service clinic, meaning payment is required at the time of service. This enables The Pilates PT to provide high quality care and attention- charging less money for more time with a Physical Therapist, and insurance does not dictate the care you receive. The Pilates PT is considered an out of network provider. Please contact your insurance company and ask about your out of network benefits. Upon request, you will be given a detailed receipt that you can submit to your insurance so you may be reimbursed for Physical Therapy services. You can also use Flex/healthcare savings (FSA/HSA) for PT services. The Pilates PT is not a Medicare provider. Pilates and wellness services are not typically covered by insurance. A Physician referral is no longer required for Physical Therapy, although some insurance companies may still require one. If you are interested in telehealth, please ask your insurance company about your coverage for this service.
What should I wear?
Please wear workout clothes, shoes are not allowed on the Pilates equipment. For the Pilates equipment, socks are required and we recommend socks with grips (Pilates/barre socks). For Physical Therapy, we also recommend wearing clothing that allows access to the injured area (for example, wear shorts or pants that can be easily rolled up if you have knee pain or a tank top if you have shoulder pain).
What should I expect for my first visit of pelvic floor Physical Therapy?
A Pelvic floor Physical Therapy initial evaluation is similar to an orthopedic evaluation. It includes discussing your issue and then assessing trunk and lower extremity range of motion, flexibility, strength, and more. Depending on the particular condition, an internal assessment of the pelvic floor musculature may be performed if you feel comfortable. This muscle exam gives us important information about the strength, coordination, and tightness of your pelvic floor muscles. We also have a real time ultrasound that we can use to assess pelvic floor muscle function as well as use for retraining. We then are able to design appropriate treatments and exercises that are a part of Physical Therapy and your home exercise program.
