Phileo Health

Phileo Health Chippewa Valley's first direct-pay physical therapy clinic, providing exceptional rehabilitation, prevention and wellness services at reasonable prices.

Phileo Health LLC, formerly Freedom PT and BodyWorks, LLC, is a physical therapy practice specializing in manual therapy, exercise, and education to treat patients with back and neck pain, complex chronic pain, orthopedic injuries and various other musculoskeletal issues. A hands-on, caring and holistic approach is used to promote healing and wellness, and patients are treated as complete people...mind, body and soul. As health insurance deductibles and co-pays for therapy services escalate in today's changing health care environment, many people struggling with pain choose to pass on PT expertise due to cost. This is very unfortunate, as PTs have so much to offer, not only in treating an episode of pain, but also in addressing the underlying cause(s) to prevent recurrence. Phileo Health LLC seeks to serve our community by offering effective and affordable direct-pay services. So what does "direct-pay" mean? Simply put, patients pay the clinic directly for services rendered. Insurance is not billed. This allows costs to remain reasonable as no additional staff are needed to deal with insurance companies, billing, tracking claims, etc. Receipts are provided for patients desiring to use their Health Savings Accounts (HSAs). Patients may also elect to submit receipts to their insurance companies for partial reimbursement for services provided by an "out-of-network provider." The insurance legwork, however, is done by the patient. Freedom is "free" of any insurance network. In addition to traditional rehabilitative services, Phileo Health provides wellness services. While physical therapists have much to offer people in terms of injury prevention and overall wellness, these services are typically not covered by insurance companies. People desiring the expertise of a PT in these areas are eagerly welcomed at Phileo Health. Wellness services include therapeutic massage, guided individual exercise programs (such as Intro to Pilates), and performance enhancement for runners and other athletes. If you are looking for a therapist who will take the time you need, use her hands in her treatment approach, and offer compassion and encouragement along your journey to improved health and function, call for an appointment today!
