Frequently Asked Questions

Integral Physical Therapy, LLC. is an “out-of-network” provider. This means that you will need to pay for your visit when you come in and have your insurance company reimburse you,  if they cover this treatment.  Our clinic does not submit for your insurance reimbursement.  We will provide all the receipts so you can submit them to your insurance company.

No Fault Auto and Worker’s Compensation may be accepted on an individual case basis.

You may call your insurance company in advance and ask for the details of your insurance plan concerning  “out of network” physical therapy benefits. You should ask your insurance company "How much they pay for an out of network provider?" and "What paperwork they need submitted for your reimbursement payment?"

No, not necessarily.

In the state of Pennsylvania, through Direct Access, it is legal to see a Physical Therapist for evaluation and treatment WITHOUT a physician's prescription up to 30 days. After that though, you will need a referral/prescription to continue therapy. (However, if submitting for insurance reimbursement, it is wise to have a prescription from the beginning of treatment, since they often request it.)

When you do obtain a prescription, it can be written by a physician (MD or DO), physician’s assistant (PA-C), registered nurse practitioner (CRNP), dentist or podiatrist.

The script should state:

“Physical Therapy. Evaluate and Treat” and include a diagnosis.

Integral Physical Therapy, LLC is primarily unable to accept Medicare programs at this time however please check with our office for eligibility.

Since myofascial release ideally is done directly on the skin, it is preferred that you are “comfortably undressed”. A tank top and loose fitting shorts are fine, while some people wear two-piece bathing suits. It all depends on how you will be comfortable, and may evolve with time.

Treatments are generally one hour long. This includes discussion, myofascial release and whatever other skilled treatment or exercise program is indicated to help you reach your desired goals. Your appointment time is yours and is specifically set aside for you to be with the therapist. You will not need to worry about signing in and waiting. It would however be beneficial to come about 5 minutes early to get yourself settled into the treatment room at the time you requested.
