What does a person need to do to get treatment?
It is your right to choose your own physical therapist! There are currently 46 states that allow people to go directly to a physical therapist without a physician's referral. Virginia has limited Direct Access (meaning you can be seen for a designated amount of time before having to f/u with your physician). It does NOTallow a PT to perform dry needling! We MUST have a physician's signed prescription in order to dry needle a patient.
*It should be noted that your insurance policy may require a visit to your PCP first, or may limit your access to preferred providers only.
Your physician may refer you for physical therapy in office or to a facility they have a vested interest in. REMEMBER! You have the Right to Choose where you go for PT! You can either ask for a prescription from your doctor and choose where you want to go or tell them you want to go to a particular practice. Roberts Physical Therapy and Massage accepts most types of insurance.
How fast should a patient see results and how long will it last?
Since treatment plans are uniquely designed for each individual, results will vary. Patients typically notice reduced pain and increased range of motion within the first few sessions. Basic instructions on therapeutic and home exercise programs will help expedite the patient's recovery. The goal of each treatment plan is to correct the condition permanently. Upon discharge, the patient would only need to resume physical therapy if they re-injured themselves typically.
What type of environment should a patient expect at Roberts Physical Therapy and Massage?

You'll be greeted by friendly staff members, enjoy a private treatment room with soothing music, and receive one-on-one attention in our state-of-the-art exercise area.
