The first visit is usually about an hour and a half. That includes about 15 minutes of initial paperwork that can be done online ahead of time. During the first visit our therapists will discuss the specifics of your case with you and then use a variety of tests to measure your strength and range of motion. Every ten visits those tests will be repeated to track your progress. After your measurements have been completed, the therapist will start treatment, beginning with low-level treatment to get an idea of what you can comfortably tolerate.
