FAQs

Pelvic floor physical therapy focuses on assessing and treating the muscles that stabilize the hips and control bladder, bowel, and sexual function.

It plays a key role in addressing concerns like pain, incontinence, prolapse, and postpartum healing.

We chose to remain out of network so we can spend our time focusing on your care rather than navigating the many different billing rules, authorizations, and documentation requirements that vary from one insurance company to another. 

This model allows us to offer uninterrupted one-on-one treatment and individualized plans of care. After each visit, we can provide a superbill that you may submit to your insurance for possible out-of-network reimbursement.

—————

The reality is that insurance billing is far more complex than simply submitting a claim. Every insurance company has different requirements. Some require specific modifiers, some do not cover certain codes, and others require prior authorizations through third-party companies. 

The actual claim submission is often the easiest step; navigating the rules, denials, and approval processes is where most of the work occurs.

By remaining out-of-network, I can focus my time and energy on providing high-quality, one-on-one care tailored to your individual goals—not insurance requirements. 

This approach allows us to keep treatment efficient by minimizing unnecessary visits while helping you achieve meaningful, lasting results. You'll also receive a detailed superbill after each visit that you may submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement, depending on your plan.

At your first visit, we will have a thorough conversation so Dr. Jess can understand your symptoms, goals, and concerns. Muscle strength and joint range of motion will be assessed, and an internal muscle examination may be offered to better evaluate pelvic floor function; this is always optional and based entirely on your comfort level. We will review exercises together and provide a written summary by email to support your progress at home.

Many patients begin to notice improvements within 1-3 sessions as they start their personalized treatment plan. Dr. Jess will regularly assess your progress and adjust the approach as needed to help you achieve your goals. Consistency with exercises and follow-up visits plays a significant role in ensuring lasting improvements.

First Visit: You’ll leave with a clear understanding of your symptoms and where you are in the healing process. You’ll also learn how to use movement, exercise, and breathing techniques to start feeling better right away.

Follow-up Visits: As we progress, your home exercises will be adjusted and personalized based on your response. After the first 1-3 visits, you'll have a clearer understanding of your recovery journey and the steps needed to continue improving, making the process feel manageable and less overwhelming.

Your goals are at the center of your care.

Whether you want to pick up your baby without back pain, feel stronger through your core, get back to running, or enjoy pain-free intimacy, Dr. Jess is here to help you get there.

At your first visit, you'll gain a clear understanding of what's contributing to your symptoms and what your recovery journey can look like. Together, you'll create a plan that fits your goals and your lifestyle.
