*Texas is a Direct Access state, meaning a
referral for physical therapy is NOT required to start PT, however, we are required to get one in order to continue after two weeks from your first visit. This is a requirement of our state board and it has nothing to do with insurance. A referral can come from a
physician,
nurse practitioner,
podiatrist,
dentist,
or
chiropractor. Often your may not need to go in for an office visit, however every provider is different. Referrals can be sent to our
