Frequently Asked Questions

Can I schedule without a physician order?

Not necessary. Florida allows direct access to our treatment modalities without physician referral. However, if you're billing your health plan, verify your plan's requirements.

What's the ideal timeframe for beginning care?

Prompt assessment is optimal. Postponing care risks long-term complications. Florida law requires medical evaluation within 14 days of an auto accident to preserve insurance coverage.

Will I need diagnostic imaging?

Advanced testing follows specific protocols based on clinical assessment results, accident circumstances, or treatment plateau. We maintain referral relationships with local imaging centers for rapid appointment access.

How many sessions will I need?

Acute soft tissue injuries typically require 6-12 weeks of therapeutic intervention. Complicated injuries with nerve involvement or multiple injury sites may require 12-16 weeks. Persistent conditions demand sustained intervention due to neuroplastic changes in pain processing.

How do I switch clinics mid-treatment?

We welcome transfer of care and will request records from your previous provider to ensure treatment continuity.
