Frequently Asked Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I book an appointment?
Please book your free phone consultation here OR call 210-468-7398
Do you have evenings or weekend appointments available?
Yes! We are open as late as 7 pm on weekdays and from 8-3 on Saturdays.
Do I need a referral to be seen?
NO! Texas is now a limited direct-access state for physical therapy. This means you no longer need a referral to get started with pelvic floor therapy! This saves you valuable time and money, as well as avoids unnecessary diagnostic testing and medications. The sooner you receive treatment for an injury or dysfunction, the faster you will get well! After we complete your initial evaluation, we will handle requesting a referral from your provider if you need one.
How many visits will it take?
This will vary greatly from person to person, depending on what you’re being treated for, how long you’ve been dealing with the issue, what your specific goals are, as well as other factors that will play a role in your recovery. We ask that, at minimum, you plan for a comprehensive evaluation followed by at least a couple of follow-up sessions. However, for more complex issues or more challenging goals, you will likely benefit from more sessions with your therapist to ensure full resolution of symptoms for both the short and long term. Your therapist will be able to give you a more personalized idea at your evaluation.
Can I use my HSA or FSA funds?
Yes! You can use your HSA & FSA funds.
Do you accept insurance?
UpLift PT is an out-of-network practice. By being out of network with insurance companies, we are able to provide superior, one-on-one care, getting you back to doing things you love faster. When you are in-network, you are greatly limited in what services you can provide based solely on what insurance will reimburse you for. Insurance puts a cap on how much money they will pay, and limits the amount of time you can spend with your patients.
By being an out-of-network provider, UpLift PT is able to spend one-on-one time with you each and every visit for the entirety of the visit and provide the superior care and services you need to improve. This way, you can spend significantly less time attending therapy because you improve much more quickly. We work for PATIENTS, not insurance companies!
We are also more than happy to provide you with the information you need to file with your insurance company for potential out-of-network reimbursement. We will provide you with a Super Bill after each visit that you can simply send off to your insurance company for potential out-of-network reimbursement or to be applied toward your deductible.
Do you take Medicare?
We are not participating Medicare providers. If you are a Medicare beneficiary, you are welcome to see us for Wellness Services.
Where are you located?
We are located off 410 and Broadway, near the airport. Our address is 8818 Tradeway Street, San Antonio, TX 78217
Where should I park?
We have plenty of parking in front of our building.
What should I wear to my first appointment?
Dress comfortably in clothes you can move in!
I’m not an athlete; can you still help me?
100% we can help you. We work with people of all activity levels and ages. We believe that everyone can benefit from movement.
What can I expect at a typical appointment?
Every appointment will be 100% one-on-one with your therapist. You can expect to spend approximately an hour at each of your appointments. Each session may include a combination of assessment, manual therapy, therapeutic exercise, neuromuscular re-education, and patient education on how to supplement treatment while at home.
Is internal pelvic floor work required?
While the internal exam/manual therapy can tell us a lot about your pelvic floor muscles, our therapists have plenty of knowledge, exercises, and other tools we can use to help if internal work is not a good option for you. We value informed consent first and foremost, and you, the patient, are always in control!
What does the internal pelvic floor work involve?
After a thorough explanation & getting your consent, the exam/treatment can be completed either vaginally or rectally. Our goals with either are to assess for muscle tension, coordination/function, and any asymmetries. This is not your typical GYNO exam! We don’t use a speculum or stirrups. It involves the use of 1 gloved, lubricated finger(s) that aims to be non-painful as we talk you through the entirety of what we are doing & more importantly, get your feedback on how it is feeling! Your perception of the feeling of pressure on the muscle(s) gives us information about where the issue may be coming from (nerves, muscle, other soft tissues, etc).
Do you treat men?
Yes! We are one of the few pelvic floor clinics in San Antonio with training to treat male patients. We welcome all genders here!
Am I able to come to my therapy appointment if I’m on my period?
YES! There are plenty of effective things we can still do during your session that do not involve internal pelvic floor work if you do not want internal work while on your period. However, our therapists are professional & comfortable with performing the internal PF work while menstruation is occurring if warranted.
Do you work with people who have never been pregnant?
Yes! Our therapists are both pelvic health and orthopedic specialists. A large percentage of our clients are people who have never had a baby but are experiencing pelvic floor/hip/back discomfort.
