Physical Therapy in Pasadena | The Movement Clinic: Physical ...

What makes Movement Clinic different from other PT services?

1:1 care with highly specialized Doctors of Physical Therapy; no cookie-cutter exercises; no multi-patient sessions.

Do you take my insurance?

Yes, as an out-of-network provider in Pasadena, we provide you with all the necessary paperwork (‘superbills’) that give you the opportunity to submit to your insurance for reimbursement.

Do I need a referral from my doctor before attending Physical Therapy?

California law allows patients to directly access physical therapy services without a physician’s referral. Patients can seek evaluation and treatment for up to 45 days or 12 visits, whichever comes first, before a signed plan of care from a physician is required. This allows for faster, cost-effective, and direct care for injuries or pain.

What should I expect during my first visit?

We are problem solvers! You will receive 60 minutes of focused 1 on 1 care at our Pasadena clinic and each visit is with a highly specialized Doctor of Physical Therapy. We take you through our three step process where we listen and learn about your situation, assess your body, and develop a road map to getting you better than you were before your injury. Sessions typically last 30-60 minutes depending on your condition and the types of techniques used. Your physical therapist will give you an estimate when you first arrive for your appointment.

What if I have questions after my physical therapy session?

Your physical therapist should be available to answer any questions or concerns you may have about your treatment plan before and after each visit. You can also contact the clinic directly for further assistance. We want you to get the most out of every session!

Will my physical therapist be able to answer any questions I have about my condition?

Yes! Your physical therapist should be available to discuss any concerns or questions you have regarding your condition or treatment plan. Don’t hesitate to bring up any issues that may arise during the course of therapy.
