Plus, we don't just get you out of pain; we make you more resilient, stronger and better prepared to perform.
In Missouri, you do not need a referral to begin physical therapy. You can schedule directly with us and start your recovery right away. We will work with you to help obtain a referral if necessary. Whether you have a referral or not, we're here to help you get started on the path to recovery as quickly as possible.
Every injury and every athlete is different, so there's no one-size-fits-all timeline. During your initial assessment, we'll provide a realistic estimate based on your specific condition, injury severity and performance goals. Generally, acute injuries may see significant improvement in 4-8 weeks, while chronic conditions or post-surgical recovery may take 12-16 weeks or longer. What I can promise is that we'll be efficient with your time and transparent about your progress. We'll adjust your treatment plan as you improve and we're always working toward getting you back to your sport as safely and quickly as possible.
Your first session is all about understanding you, your injury, your history, your sport and your goals. We'll spend 90 minutes together conducting a comprehensive physical assessment, discussing what's been going on and identifying the root cause of your issue. We'll test your movement patterns, strength, mobility and any compensations your body has developed. By the end of that first visit, you'll have a clear understanding of what's happening, what the recovery process will look like and we'll already begin some initial treatment. You'll leave with homework, specific exercises designed for your situation and a plan moving forward.
We are a direct pay clinic and DO NOT accept any insurance.
