FAQ

In some cases you can submit claims to your insurance company as an out-of-network claim. You'll need to check with your insurance carrier to see if this is an option, and I can't guarantee that the claim will be accepted. Live Well and Move uses the GetHealthie EMR and can produce the appropriate suberbills if requested.

Unfortunately, I do not treat Medicare/Medicaid beneficiaries. Medicare has created a situation in which Physical Therapists cannot opt out of Medicare guidelines when treating Medicare beneficiaries for services that are considered "medically necessary." This means that a patient would have to pay based on the Medicare fee schedule and then submit directly to Medicare to wait for reimbursement. In some cases, Medicare beneficiaries can participate with non-medically necessary activities, and this can be evaluated on a case-by-case basis.

Functional medicine looks at the person as a whole. Rather than focusing on a symptom and trying to give it a diagnosis, Functional Medicine looks at the person as a whole, and identifies the root cause of dysfunction. From there, a personalized treatment plan is created to guide you through the process of eliminating or reducing the root cause, and this will eliminate or reduce the downstream symptom.

I'm a licensed physical therapist in Arizona, LPT 007812. I have been licensed since 2007 and in good standing with the AzPTA (physical therapy association). I am certified and practiced in "regular" physical therapy modalities, including exercise, manual treatments, dry needling, "cupping", and other standard therapy approaches. I'm not a "regular" therapist, in that you will have my 100%, undivided and total attention for a full 60 mintues!

Physical therapy and Functional Medicine can certainly be applied to younger folks, however, experience in that field and with that population is necessary to make a great impact. I have been working with Junior High and High School aged kids since starting my PT practice, and can confidently help that age group. Because of my location and experience, I don't offer treatments for younger kids (age 0-10). However, please feel free to contact me, as your child deserves the best treatment possible, and I'd be happy to help you connect with the right provider!
