FAQ
We are in network with most insurance companies. Our office will verify your PT benefits prior to your initial visit and go over your coverage with you on day 1!
Some cases yes, and some cases no. It all depends on your insurance. In the state of Maine we have direct access, meaning you can attend physical therapy at any time for your needs. However, some insurances do require a referral from your doctor. Call us and we can help answer this question for you!
Our patient portal is the preferred method for all initial intake paperwork. It is the easiest way for you and for our staff to gather your medical history and information about why you are coming to physical therapy. We can help you complete your intake paperwork the day of your appointment in the office, but please arrive at least 15 minutes early.
The goal of physical therapy is to make you not hurt! We know that the primary reason many are in PT is because of pain. We often hear the no pain no gain or PT stands for physical torture! This is not always true, your PT will work with you on the best individualized plan to help you in your recovery. Our goal is to get you feeling better quickly!
Believe it or not, we hear this a lot. At Accel PT, our treatment approaches are the most up to date and evidence based. We may be a different approach and will work to design the best treatment plan centered around you. Communication is key, let us know about your experience and we will work with you to make sure you have a great PT experience and better outcomes!
For your initial visit, wear loose, comfortable clothing that will allow you to move easily and allow your PT to assess your injury. Your PT will then go over the best attire for all future visits based on the treatment plan.
A discovery visit is a free 10–15 minute consultation with one of our physical therapists. It's a no-pressure opportunity to discuss your condition, ask questions, and determine if physical therapy is the right path for you. Fill out the contact form and our staff will contact you within 24 hours.
