Since July 1st, 2013, Kansas does not require that you have a referral from your physician. The Patient Self-Referral (PSR) bill was passed in the Spring of 2013 and allows patients to access their physical therapist without a referral.   If you have Medicare, you do not need a referral to start physical therapy, however we will need the name of your primary care or specialist physician on file so we can send them your therapy plan of care.      

Contact us at (913) 322-4000 to schedule an appointment and complete required paperwork about your condition prior to arrival. 

Medical insurance routinely covers Physical Therapy treatment. However, each insurance policy is unique. By providing us with your insurance information, we can check with your policy to determine your Physical Therapy benefits for you. We verify your benefits as a courtesy to you, but ultimately you are financially responsible. Feel free to contact your insurance company if you have further questions regarding your benefits.   Please call us today and our staff will be glad to assist you in determining your benefits. We are contracted as an in-network provider for many common insurance plans, but not all. 

Wear something comfortable that will allow free movement and access to the area we will be treating.  For example, if we're seeing you for your knee, please wear shorts). 

On day 1 we will seek to understand what you have been going through and evaluate you movement system to identify unique opportunties you have to eliminate pain and/or performance deficits.   Your physical therapist will discuss the findings of your evaluation and discuss the recommended plan of care to achieve your goals and lasting results from physical therapy.

Each patient's situation is unique, and your plan of care will be established to meet your needs. In your plan of care you physical therapist will recommend how many times a week (frequency) and for how many weeks (duration) they recommend therapy to resolve your problem.  We will also discuss treatment techniques throughout your journey which often include manual therapy, therapeutic exercises, neuromuscular re-education, therapeutic activities, self care, gait training, strapping (taping), and/or modalities specifically designed to enhance your healing ability and provide comfort.

A typical therapy session last 40-60 minutes depending on your plan of care needs. 

When you schedule with us, we will pair you with a licensed physical therapist that will see you throughout the entire care process. Based on your scheduling needs and or peer collaboration for specialty services (see services page), you may at times see another provider; however our intention is to keep you with the same provider throughout your therapy plan of care.  We do not have any physical therapy assistants, techs, or aides which means your care will be provided by a doctor of physical therapy.  We work one-on-one with each client throughout your therapy session.
