FAQs
Performance physical therapy is a hybrid training model which allows us to treat you as a whole person in any way you need. We are cash based which eliminates all insurance restrictions on the amount or type of care you may require. This allows us to take a holistic approach in our treatment methods. No matter what sports or hobbies you enjoy, we can tailor our treatment specific to your needs.
Through our performance PT model we will get you out of pain and help you stay that way long term. We believe at our core that movement is the best medicine so we will take an active approach to your treatment to keep you active.
We are the best in Tacoma. Simple as that.
You will not find another clinic that provides this level of care, 1 on 1, with one hour sessions and your goals at the epicenter. Our goal is to give you the confidence to reach your own goals, with us there to facilitate that in any way we can.
At an insurance based clinic, a physical therapy session may include a few minutes with the PT, some exercises with support staff and some passive modalities. While passive modalities might feel good, they will not fix you.
At The PATH, your session will be spent actually addressing your root problem and helping to fix it through exercise, education and manual techniques.
We do not use passive modalities or aides in your care because your time is valuable and should be spent making lasting change toward fixing your problems, not just temporary fixes.
Most insurances do not cover musculoskeletal wellness or injury prevention sessions performed by physical therapists. However those services are so incredibly important.
At The PATH we are an active group who love being outdoors and as a whole have played almost every sport out there and understand your passion for them. It is much less expensive to prevent an injury through proper mobility and training than rehab one after it occurs. We offer wellness, maintenance and injury risk-reduction to keep you happy, healthy and moving.
