FAQs
What types of health insurance do you accept?
None at this time. However, I do provide a superbill for you to submit to your insurance upon request.Â
The reason I do not take insurance is because I would like to continue to practice with one-on-one quality care for up to an hour and not be dictated by time or units that the insurance companies demand.
Do I need a doctor’s referral?
In the state of California, we practice Direct Access for all physical therapy patients. What that means is I can see someone without a doctor's referral for up to 12 visits or 45 days, whichever comes first, before needing a medical doctor to get involved.
What is your new patient procedure?
Book an appointment online or contact me and I will book your appointment. Complete the new patient intake which is automatically sent to you and get excited! Payment is due at the time of the appointment.
What does a Telehealth appointment look like?
All appointments require a camera from either your phone, laptop, or tablet. We will discuss your history/injury/concerns. From thereI will ask you to perform a series of movements, exercises and activities focused around your aches/pains/goals.
All this is done via HIPPA compliant software.
To help the visit go smoothly, please make sure you have a strong internet connection & that browsers, etc are up to date. That you are dressed in clothing that permits movement, in a private space with enough room to move.
What about in-person appointments?
All in-person appointments are $200 for 1 hour if you are in the San Diego area. If you are in Orange County etc., there is an additional fee for commute.Â
I bring a treatment table and all my "needs" to your home or office.Â
I will wear a mask throughout the entire appointment but you are not required to wear one.
What if I don't have pain?
Great! If you are looking for a functional assessment or movement analysis, then I am your gal.Â
This is where/when we can focus on better control, patterns, and power to help you achieve your goal.
What is the "Refer a Friend" discount?
I can't thank those enough for the praises I have received. It truly takes a team to achieve goals and that is strong communication and understanding.
With standard appointments being $200, all F&F (Friends and Family) are $150. ***Additional charge for commute, over 50 miles,  may apply.
