What to Expect From a virtual physical therapy Session

What can I expect from a virtual physical therapy session?

It doesn’t seem like that long ago that coronavirus was just something happening somewhere else. However, this condition has led to many lifestyle changes such as social distancing in the past few weeks. 

One way the therapy team at SOL Physical Therapy is doing our part to mitigate the spread of coronavirus is offering virtual physical therapy sessions that allow you to interact with your therapist via a live audio and video feed. Here are three things you can expect from a virtual physical therapy session with us: 

  1. High-quality service

One thing you can expect from a virtual physical therapy session is high-quality service. A 2018 study reports that 57% of people polled were willing to use telemedicine services. One reason so many people are willing to do so is the quality of your care will still be high. 

Our therapists can still guide you through various therapeutic exercises and stretches. We can also discuss ways that you can make normal daily tasks easier during your therapy process. We’ll be happy to answer any questions you have about your injury or medical condition as well. 

  1. Manageable costs

Manageable costs are another thing you can expect from virtual physical therapy sessions. 

Our virtual physical therapy care services are covered by most major insurances in the same way as an in-person visit. Our team also accepts credit and debit as well as Flexible Spending Account (FSA) and Health Savings Account (HSA) payments for Medicare, Medicaid and self-pay patients

  1. Respect for your privacy

Privacy safeguards are something else you can expect from a virtual physical therapy session. The platform we use for your virtual physical therapy sessions is safe and secure against virtual threats.

As we all continue to practice our social distancing, SOL Physical Therapy is standing by to help patients through virtual physical therapy sessions. Using this tool, our team will still have the capability to help new patients begin their therapy. We’ll also be able to help many of our current patients progress through their therapy plans right from their own home.
