FAQs
Answers to the questions we hear most from athletes and active adults considering Process PT.
Is cash-based physical therapy worth it if I have insurance?
Cash-based PT means you get a full hour with the same DPT every visit, no aides, no double-booking, no rushing through a protocol. Many patients find that fewer, higher-quality sessions produce better, longer-lasting results than a high volume of impersonal visits. We also provide a superbill after each session so you can submit for potential out-of-network reimbursement.
Will I have to stop training while I'm in physical therapy?
Not necessarily. Keeping you active through the process is a core part of how we approach care. We take time to understand the demands of your specific sport or training, then build a plan that lets you keep moving as much as safely possible while your body recovers.
Does Process PT bill my insurance directly?
We are a cash-based clinic and do not bill insurance directly. We accept HSA and FSA cards and provide a detailed superbill after each session, which you can submit to your insurance carrier for potential out-of-network reimbursement. Many patients are pleasantly surprised by what they get back.
How long will my care plan take?
Every patient is different, and we don't operate off generic timelines. After your initial assessment, we will give you a clear picture of what your care plan looks like based on your specific situation, how your body responds to treatment, and the goals you want to hit before we wrap up.
What can I expect during my first visit at Process PT?
Your first session is a full hour of movement assessment with your DPT. We look at how you move, identify where you are limited, and begin to understand what is actually driving your symptoms so everything we do from that point forward is built around your body, not a general protocol.

We are happy to chat through what you are dealing with before you commit to anything.
