Although health insurance plans are not accepted, insurance plans with "out-of-network" benefits may reimburse you depending on your plan. Our team can provide you with a "superbill" so that you can file your claim on your own. Please contact your insurance company to verify your coverage. Medicare and Medicaid are not accepted with this form of reimbursement.
A Neuroplastic Approach to PT
Parkinson’s disease can be slowed or even stopped. Dr. Wells and his team have had patients nearly stop their Parkinson disease progression with use of long-term, aggressive physical therapy exercise programs. Exercise boosts brain-derived neurotrophic factors (BDNF), which help the brain to produce more dopamine cells and promote neural connectivity. Add in the benefits of dietary changes and patients with Parkinson’s start to back off on their medications and move better with less freezing and tremor.
Our approach is holistic and focuses on you as a person, not merely a diagnosis. Our team can isolate and diagnosis the specific movement issues that are involved. Our treatments will focus on walking, transferring, balancing, resistance training, and functional tasks to push neuroplasticity. Our team has also taken courses in Lee Silverman Parkinson’s BIG and integrates large, powerful movements within our training. We focus on big steps, big movements, and challenging power and agility movements in a safe and fun way. We also emphasize recovery using manual therapy, pain and neuroscience, nutrition, and continued life-long exercise and physical activity.
We specialize in treating neurologic conditions like Parkinson’s so that you can move better and do the things you love. After our initial exam we will create a customized rehabilitation program with a focus on your goals. Our continuation program is likely the best solution for most our clients with Parkinsons. Our PT solutions are unique to you!
