FAQs
Do you accept my specific health insurance plan?
No. This allows us to get you in and start your treatment immediately without a physicians referral which saves you time. We provide receipts that you can submit to your insurance company for reimbursement. Call your insurance provider to find out if they will reimburse you for out-of-network physical therapy. Insurance plans vary greatly so contact your provider beforehand.
How long is a session?
Evaluations are 90 minutes and follow up sessions are 55 minutes.
Will I work with the same therapist every visit?
Yes. Being out-of-network allows us to provide you with quality care without having you bounce around between physical therapists. This means more consistency and better outcomes.
What does it cost to work with start?
We have both membership and package options depending on what best fits your needs. Call us to find out more about our options.
What makes STart different from typical physical therapy?
Although we can go on and on here, we’ve narrowed it down to 3 things:
Our approach: We combine PRI (postural restoration institute) breathing techniques in conjunction with sports performance and manual therapy to achieve optimal results.
Attention to detail: We are constantly improving our skillset with continuing education courses and have regular weekly discussions amongst the team regarding your case. In that way, you are working with all of us even though you have your regular clinician or therapist.
Client focused: One of our core values is Unreasonable Hospitality. This means we curate the entire experience around you to ensure that you have the most memorable experience while getting results.
How should I dress?
Wear comfortable athletic clothes such as shorts, t-shirt, or sports bra with athletic shoes/sneakers. You can also bring other shoes that you frequently wear.
Do I need a prescription?
No. Direct access legislation under California law states patients are able to be evaluated and treated by a licensed physical therapist for up to 45 days or 12 visits without first obtaining a doctor’s prescription/referral. This means you can come in and start working towards progress immediately without wasting time.
