By having a detailed understanding of your medical history, we can tailor our services to meet your specific needs safely and effectively.

What Do I Need To Bring To My Appointment?

For your appointment at Edge Performance Therapy, please bring the following:

  1. Comfortable Clothing: Wear or bring comfortable, loose-fitting clothes that allow easy movement. If your treatment focuses on a specific area (e.g., knee, shoulder), ensure your clothing allows access to that area.

  3. Payment Method: We accept various payment methods, including major credit and debit cards. Please ensure you have a valid payment method with you to settle any fees associated with your treatment.

Will My Insurance Cover Treatment Costs?

Whether your insurance covers treatment costs at Edge Performance Therapy depends on your specific insurance plan and provider. Many health insurance policies do cover sports therapy and related treatments, especially when they are deemed medically necessary, such as for injury recovery or post-surgical rehabilitation.

To determine if your treatment is covered:

  1. Check with Your Insurance Provider: Contact your insurance provider directly to inquire about coverage for sports therapy, or related services. Ask about any requirements, such as needing a referral from a GP.
  2. Contact Us for Assistance: We can help verify your insurance coverage. If you provide us with your insurance details, we can assist in determining what services are covered under your plan and guide you on the next steps.

It’s always a good idea to confirm coverage details before your appointment to avoid any unexpected expenses.

I Have Had A Previous Assessment Elsewhere, Do I Need Another With You?

While we value the insights from your previous assessment, we typically recommend conducting our own evaluation. This allows us to get a complete and up-to-date understanding of your current condition, as well as to tailor our approach to your specific needs and goals. Our assessments are designed to be thorough, and they often include tools and techniques that may differ from those used in other assessments. However, if you have relevant medical records or assessment results, please bring them with you to your appointment, as they can be helpful in informing our treatment plan.
