Preferred Post Workout Nutritional Supplement That You Might Already Have Stocked, is Expert Recommended, and is Incredibly Affordable

Last Thursday, one of my patients stopped me on my way out of a treatment room to ask me a seemingly simple question. “I have a daughter that is a collegiate, 400 m hurdler. She has been looking for a post run/workout recovery supplement, and I was wondering if you had any thoughts or recommendations?” I immediately started thinking about well known supplements such as Creatine, Syntha-6, or MuscleMilk, and the importance of fish oil,

Frequently Asked Questions

Get answers to common questions about physical therapy at OrthoRehab

Do I need a doctor's referral to start physical therapy?

In Minnesota, you can see a physical therapist without a physician's referral thanks to direct access laws. You can receive evaluation and treatment for up to 90 days for new conditions or chronic conditions already diagnosed.

Important exception: Medicare, Medical Assistance, and some commercial payers require a physician referral prior to starting physical therapy.

How many physical therapy sessions will I need?

The number of sessions varies based on your specific condition and goals. Typically:

  • Minor injuries: 4-6 sessions
  • Moderate conditions: 8-12 sessions
  • Post-surgical: 12-24 sessions

Your therapist will provide a treatment plan with estimated duration during your initial evaluation.

What insurance do you accept?

We accept most major insurance plans including Medicare, Blue Cross Blue Shield, Medica, UnitedHealthcare, Humana, Aetna, Cigna, UCare, and more.

We also accept Worker's Compensation and auto insurance. Call our billing office at 952-922-0330 to verify your specific benefits.

Will I see the same therapist each visit?

Yes! You'll work with the same dedicated physical therapist throughout your entire treatment. This consistency ensures:

  • Better understanding of your progress
  • Personalized treatment adjustments
  • Stronger therapeutic relationship
  • More effective outcomes

Is physical therapy painful?

Physical therapy should not cause pain. While you may experience some discomfort as you restore movement and strength, we always work within your comfort zone.

Some soreness after therapy is normal, similar to post-workout soreness. We'll teach you the difference between therapeutic discomfort and harmful pain.

How soon can I get an appointment?

We offer same-day and next-day appointments for urgent cases. Most patients can be seen within 24-48 hours of calling.

Call Edina at 952.922.0330 or
Minneapolis at 612.339.2041 to schedule.

What if I've tried PT before and it didn't work?

Not all physical therapy is the same. At OrthoRehab, we provide:

  • One-on-one care for 45-60 minutes
  • Doctorate-level therapists
  • Advanced techniques
  • Consistent care from the same therapist

Many patients who haven't succeeded elsewhere achieve their goals with our approach.
