How do I receive physical therapy?

This provider may also suggest a specific rehabilitation company or provide you with a list of physical therapists in your area. In some cases, your insurance company will guide you to the "in network" providers that are included in your insurance plan. But the final decision as to where you receive rehabilitation care is up to you.

Be sure to let your health care provider or insurance company know that Palm Beach Aquatics & Physical Therapy is your first choice when it comes to rehabilitation. We participate in many insurance plans; however, if we are not in your network, look into whether your plan has out-of-network benefits that will allow you to receive our first-rate services.

Physical therapy is valuable in the treatment of many diagnoses, so it's always a good idea to ask your health care provider to prescribe physical therapy before other methods such as prescription medication, injections and surgery. If you are unsure whether or not physical therapy can help you, contact a representative or therapist at Palm Beach Aquatic and Physical Therapy as we are always happy to answer any further questions or concerns you may have.

What should I wear to physical therapy?

The physical therapist will need to expose and examine the body part (knee, shoulder, back, etc.) you are being seen for. Please wear appropriate clothing that will allow this. For all visits, wear comfortable, loose fitting clothing suitable for exercise.


How long is each treatment session and how many visits will I need?

This depends on your situation. Each patient and diagnosis is different. Each patients condition responds differently to the care plan.
