How to get started with physical therapy?
Do I need a referral?
Many patients begin outpatient therapy with a doctor’s referral, though insurance requirements may vary.
We recommend that you speak with your doctor or provider about any conditions you have that may cause pain or restrict your activities.
Scheduling an appointment
Once your doctor provides a referral, you or your provider's office can contact our clinic directly to schedule your first visit.
You can also use the Ballad Health app to view and manage your healthcare appointments, access visit details and keep your schedule organized in one convenient place.
Preparing for your first visit
Please arrive about 15 minutes prior to your scheduled visit to complete new patient paperwork. You should also bring your physician order for therapy, insurance card and a photo ID.
We also recommend you wear comfortable clothing that allows for easy movement. You can expect to begin treatment on the same day as your initial visit and evaluation.
