Frequently Asked Questions

No. In the state of Tennessee, PTs are able to see clients via direct access. Meaning, you can see me "directly" without a physician referral.

I do not. My services are a flat rate, however, I can provide you a super-bill after each visit to submit to your insurance. The initial assessment is 1.5 hour for $190 and follow up visits are 1 hour for $130.

Literally anything you are comfortable in. You'll see me in leggings, an athletic tee, and tennis shoes!

The first session is 1.5 hours. This visit is longer because it is important to me to have ample time for history intake, examination, initiating a plan, and addressing any questions or concerns you may have. The examination is a full body assessment of the spine, hips, abdominal wall, and pelvis. The pelvic exam includes an intra-vaginal muscle and tissue assessment. Typically, I begin treatment the first day and I send you home with at least 1-2 things to work on. Follow-up visits are 1 hour and consist of hands-on treatment, exercise, and education the full hour.

Pelvic exams can be nerve-wracking for anyone, especially if you are experiencing pain. I always thoroughly explain the process before proceeding. However, you have the right to decline, or wait! Depending on the reason for the visit, an intra-vaginal assessment may not be dire. That is one thing I love about pelvic health- there are always different avenues to assess and treat. I will gladly discuss this with you and address any concerns you may have.

Yes! Especially for delivery preparation, I have had several bring their significant others for education. It is also common for new mothers to bring their newborns. I'm always flexible and willing to help you multi-task for feedings, pumping, etc!
