deBorja Physical Therapy and Myofascial Release - Baltimore

Yes, reimbursement from your insurance company is possible. The client is responsible for submitting claims to their insurance company. Instructions for this can be found on the insurance company's website. In the case your insurance provides out-of-network benefits, we will give you a designated invoice upon request, that must be sent in with your insurance company's claim form. We recommend that you speak with your insurance company directly to become knowledgeable on what their out-of-network benefits include. Be sure to ask the following: 1) Do I have out-of-network benefits? 2) Do I have a deductible for these benefits? 3) How close am I to meeting this deductible?

Treatment frequency is unique to each client and based on the findings of the initial evaluation, compliance with your recommended home program, and your goals. Generally, clients are seen 1-2/week. Visits are more frequent initially, then reduce over time as you progress toward your goals. Courses of care can range from a few visits to several months. The duration ultimately is based on the complexity and severity of your condition and your long term goals. Your time is of utmost importance. We promise to use it wisely and not waste it with activities that can be done on your own.

The best thing to wear at your therapy visits is comfortable shorts and a T-shirt. For women, a sports bra, tank top, or bikini top may be helpful to allow visual assessment of your shoulders, posture, and neck. If you have long hair, bring a hair tie so that the therapist can observe and physically examine your neck. You may want to bring your therapy clothes to change into depending on your work and personal activities on the day of your scheduled visit. Every comprehensive evaluation and therapy visit involves assessment of your movement patterns, your standing posture from the front, back, right and left sides, and palpation (skilled physical placement of the hands on your body to assess for areas such as tension, pain, thickness, impaired sensation, softness, and reactivity).

The speed at which the physical problem is eased is completely dependent upon your age, how long you’ve had it, how severe it is, your participation in a the simple physical therapist-prescribed self treatment plan, and the manual skills of the therapist. Most often you will see and feel an improvement within the first 1-3 visits. Your physical therapist will lift your concerns and ease your worries by telling you what’s going wrong during the first visit, provide you hands on care, insights, and more findings as you progress through your plan of care, and maintain ongoing open communication to seek your feedback with the hands on care.
