Question 1

Which insurances do you accept?

Accepted Answer

We accept most major insurances including Medicare, Medicare Advantage, Medicare AARP, BCBS and BCBS Advantage, United Healthcare, Aetna, Cigna and Cigna International, Humana, Molina, HAP, Health Plan of Michigan, and Align Networks. The list updates frequently — call (248) 208-7492 with any insurance questions.

Question 2

Do I need a doctor's referral?

Accepted Answer

No. Michigan allows direct access to physical therapy — you can book directly with us without a physician referral. Some insurances may still require one for coverage, which we'll verify before your first visit.

Question 3

What if I don't have insurance?

Accepted Answer

We accept cash, check, and credit card. Call us for self-pay rates — they're often more affordable than people expect.

Question 4

Are co-pays due at the visit?

Accepted Answer

Yes. All deductibles, co-pays, and co-insurance are due at the time of service unless other written arrangements have been made with your therapist.

Question 5

How quickly can I be seen?

Accepted Answer

We can usually offer same-week appointments. Call (248) 208-7492 to book.

Question 6

How long is the first visit?

Accepted Answer

Plan for about 60 minutes for your evaluation. Follow-up sessions are also approximately 1 hour.

Question 7

What should I bring?

Accepted Answer

Photo ID, your insurance card, a list of current medications, and comfortable clothing you can move in. If you've completed our new patient forms ahead of time, please bring them or send them to our office.

Question 8

Will I see the same therapist every visit?

Accepted Answer

That's our goal. Continuity of care is one of the biggest reasons patients choose us over big-box clinics, so we do our best to keep you with the same therapist throughout your plan of care. On the rare occasion scheduling requires a swap, your full chart and progress notes go with you so the next session picks up exactly where you left off.

Question 9

How soon will I feel better?

Accepted Answer

Many patients notice improvement within 2–4 visits, though it depends on the condition. Acute injuries often resolve in 4–6 visits; chronic conditions usually take 6–12. Your therapist will discuss a realistic timeline at your evaluation and adjust as you progress.

Question 10

What conditions do you treat?

Accepted Answer

We treat the full range of conditions you'd expect at a physical therapy clinic — back and neck pain, sciatica, sports and overuse injuries, post-surgical rehab (joint replacements, rotator cuff, ACL, laminectomy), arthritis, tendonitis, plantar fasciitis, frozen shoulder, knee pain, balance issues, TMJ, headaches, auto and work injuries, and chronic pain. If you're not sure whether PT can help, give us a call.

Question 11

Do you treat sciatica and back pain?

Accepted Answer

Yes — these are among the most common conditions we see. Treatment usually combines manual therapy, targeted core and hip strengthening, and movement education. Most patients see meaningful relief within a few visits.

Question 12

Can you help with sports injuries?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely. We treat strains, sprains, tendonitis, ligament injuries, and post-surgical sports rehab (ACL, meniscus, rotator cuff, Tommy John, and more). Programs are built around your sport so you return stronger, not just healed.

Question 13

What about after surgery?

Accepted Answer

We routinely treat patients after joint replacement, rotator cuff repair, ACL reconstruction, laminectomy, and other orthopedic procedures. We coordinate with your surgeon and follow their post-op protocol.

Question 14

Do you treat post-surgical and orthopedic patients?

Accepted Answer

Yes — orthopedic and post-surgical rehab is one of the largest parts of our practice. Total knee and hip replacements, rotator cuff repairs, ACL reconstructions, meniscus repairs, laminectomies, and shoulder/elbow procedures. We follow your surgeon's protocol and progress you safely back to full function.

Question 15

Do you offer manual therapy and hands-on treatment?

Accepted Answer

Yes — hands-on manual therapy is a core part of how we treat. Joint mobilization, soft-tissue work, myofascial release, and trigger-point therapy are paired with targeted exercise so the gains you make in the clinic actually stick at home.

Question 16

Do you offer balance and fall-prevention programs?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We work with older adults and anyone recovering from injury or surgery to rebuild strength, stability, and confidence on your feet. Programs are individualized and progress as you do.

Question 17

Do you offer pelvic floor and women's health therapy?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Kappu Raghunathan, PT has provided pelvic floor and women's health therapy for over 30 years — postpartum recovery, incontinence, perimenopause symptoms, and post-surgical pelvic care, all in a private, judgment-free setting.

Question 18

Do you treat children?
