Welcome to Motus Physical Therapy
Please review the following information carefully prior to coming in for your visit.
At the bottom of the page are 2 links labeled ‘consent to treat’ and ‘patient intake’ if you are able to fill them out prior to the evaluation it will allow for more time to be spent performing the assessment/treatment.
Your typed signature on the ‘consent to treat’ form acknowledges that you have read and agree to the following information:
WHAT TO EXPECT
-The first session is an evaluation session which will include treatment (50-55 minute session).
-At the end of the first visit, we will discuss if this treatment approach will be appropriate for you and if you may need additional visits. Follow up visits will be scheduled with both Mary and Rusty to allow for better access for appointments. You will find great continuity of treatment between the 2 therapists as both have had extensive manual therapy training and have worked together as a team for over 10 years.
-A typical follow-up session will last 50-55 minutes including the manual work and exercise as appropriate.
***We now also offer 45-minute exercise only sessions with Rusty to work on any specific activity, strength/flexibility or balance goals you may have— if this is something of interest to you please discuss with us.***
-The treatment approaches that you will receive will be a combination of manual therapy and exercise. Manual therapy involves hands on treatment techniques which can include joint mobilization, muscle energy techniques, soft tissue and/or myofascial release, neural/visceral/arterial mobilization. Please wear loose fitting clothing that allows access to the area to be treated and do not eat one hour prior to treatment.
*Please let me know if you are receiving additional therapy from other practitioners or body workers, as it may or may not conflict with treatment.
PAYMENT
- Motus Physical Therapy is a self-pay practice. We do not bill insurance companies, including Medicare.
If you are Medicare patient (PLEASE READ), you can “refuse, of his/her own free will, to authorize the submission of a bill to Medicare” (section 40, chapter 15 of the Medicare Benefit Policy Manual). If this is the case for you, I will ask you to sign an agreement (included in the Consent to Treat form below) that states neither you nor I will send claims by Motus Physical Therapy, LLC to any 3rd party payor (Medicare and all secondary insurances) and you will not allow anyone else to send claims on your behalf.
