Common Questions
Do I need a referral to start physical therapy?
New Hampshire allows you to be evaluated and treated by a licensed physical therapist without a physician referral. Some insurance plans still require one for coverage call us and we'll check your plan for you.
What insurance do you accept?
We accept most major insurances. Call (603) 672-5125 and we'll verify your benefits with your insurance company before you schedule.
How long is my first appointment?
Your initial evaluation takes approximately one hour. Follow-up visits run from 45 minutes to an hour, depending on where you are in your recovery.
What should I wear?
Wear something comfortable and loose enough that we can access the area causing pain. For knee pain, for example, bring shorts or pants that pull up over the knee.
