Every patient who walks through my door deserves my full attention, my full expertise, and my full hour. That's not a luxury. That's how physical therapy is supposed to work.

Why cash-based?
Insurance-based PT clinics have a problem: insurance companies decide how many visits you get, how long each session is, and which treatments are “approved.” That means your therapist is working within someone else's limits, not yours.
At Reform, there are no insurance limitations. Dana designs your treatment plan based on what you actually need, not what a claims adjuster will authorize. Sessions are longer. Care is more thorough. And you don't waste weeks waiting for pre-authorization.
Many patients find that cash-based PT actually costs less overall because they need fewer total visits to reach their goals. And we provide superbills so you can submit for out-of-network reimbursement if your plan covers it.
