Did you know? In California (and Every other state*) physical therapy has what's called direct access.

This means you can see a PT without a referral
from an MD first. This allows accelerated access
to care when you feel minor or major aches,
pains, or injuries.

PTs are trained to perform
evaluative assessments to identify the source of
your pain or refer you elsewhere if something
isn't quite right. So check with your state,
insurance, and see a PT first for faster results.



*While every state has some form of direct
access, some are more limited in regulations.
Check your state provisions here

To be honest I think our profession has done
a pretty terrible job at educating the public on what we do and how we can help.

PTs can help with so much more than post surgical rehab and serious injuries. We are here to guide you to be your best, most active, mobile, and pain free self.

So whether it's addressing chronic aches and pains, injury prevention programming, muscle recovery, fall prevention, help
with vertigo, or formal injury rehabilitation. We got you! 💪

Hi! 👋 I wanted to write up a little blog post about my/my husband’s collegiate club volleyball experiences but wanted it to be more of a Q & A format. I know not everyone is able to play D1,2, or 3 in college and collegiate club is a great option to keep playing past high school so please drop any questions you would want to see answered below (I can answer in comments as well!)

We went to different schools so able to give multiple perspectives 🏐
