It can feel overwhelming trying to find physical therapy in Los Angeles. The city is so big and there are so many choices. How are you able to find one that will work for you, especially a place that will send someone to your home to do the treatment?
Not to worry. We are here to help you with some tips that will guide you on how to find an in-home physical therapist. Read on to learn more.
Ask Your Friends and Family
Perhaps you have a friend or a family member that has had physical therapy at their home in the past. They may have had an excellent rapport with them and also gotten great results. Do not hesitate to ask them if they know anyone.
On the other hand, also keep in mind that they may have a completely different personality and expectations than you. Keep that in mind when they give their recommendations. It never hurts to talk to a PT first though.
Look Online
It has never been as simple to search for something as it is now. All you need to do is go to a search engine and type in your zip code and “physical therapist.” In the blink of an eye, you will get a lot of results.
Take a look at what is recommended. See what the reviews are like – though take all of them with a grain of salt. Listen to what your gut has to say when you read all of them.
Consult Your Insurance
Another good place to possibly look is through your insurance. They may have a list of those who accept your insurance. That way, you wouldn’t have to worry about any of them being out of network and possibly having to pay more out of pocket.
Try to find the ones that are near you. That way, they won’t have a long commute to your place either and you won’t have to worry about them being in Los Angeles traffic.
These are just some of the things that you can do to find an in-home physical therapist. By doing this, you will improve your chances of finding a good one. Then you can focus on your rehabilitation.
Also, by doing it this way, you can narrow down the size of Los Angeles so it does not feel so intimidating to try to find anything.
