Physical Therapy

We are dedicated to providing you with the best physical therapy experience possible.

Physical therapy can be helpful for individuals who have injuries or are limited in a variety of areas. This includes, but is not limited to, sports injuries (sports medicine), work-related injuries (worker’s compensation), surgeries, motor vehicle accidents, chronic pain/injuries, and other daily aches and pains.

Physical therapy is a medical treatment that may consist of a variety of interventions that include, but are not limited to:

 

  • Exercise & balance
  • Manual therapy
  • Massage/soft tissue mobilization
  • Stretching
  • Dry needling
  • Cupping
  • Ice/heat

Lifting Limits

The goal of these interventions is to help improve pain, balance, and strength while restoring motion. Ultimately, we want to help you participate in the activities that you enjoy while experiencing fewer limitations.

Common Injuries

Sprained Ankles

The most common cause of an ankle sprain is a previous ankle sprain. Addressing an ankle sprain correctly can decrease the potential for future problems and improve return to activity.

IT Band Syndrome

IT band syndrome can cause pain in the outer part of the knee. Addressing IT band syndrome involves decreasing the pain and irritation, and improving weakness, flexibility deficits, balance dysfunctions, and poor mechanics.

What To Expect

Timing

Your first appointment will take approximately 1-1.5 hours. Plan to arrive 10-15 minutes early to fill out the patient paperwork if you have not filled out the patient information online. Follow-up appointments are approximately 45-60 minutes.

Frequency

The frequency of your appointments will be determined after the initial evaluation. Typically, patients come to physical therapy 1-3 times per week over the course of 4-12 weeks.

Participation

Plan to wear modest, comfortable clothing that will allow you to move freely. You will participate in a rehabilitation plan designed specifically for you and your unique condition.

Graduation

Once your physical therapy is complete, you will be able to continue with the exercise program that the therapist has given you. You can also continue your progress by participating in the Precision Performance and Therapy exercise program design. This provides you the benefit of having the individualized program without the higher cost of other wellness programs or personal training programs.

Insurance and Referrals

Health insurance

Generally covers physical therapy treatment, but each insurance plan is different. You should contact your insurance carrier to inquire about your physical therapy benefits. Precision Performance and Therapy can also help you determine if you are in our network.

Referrals

Idaho is a Direct Access state, meaning most insurance plans allow for you to be treated in physical therapy without a physician referral. Please check with your insurance carrier to see if they require a physician prescription to be eligible for physical therapy coverage.
