Common Questions About Physical Therapy 

Answers to common questions about physical therapy, chronic pain treatment, and care in Medway, MA

Why didn’t physical therapy work for me before?

Many people come to me after trying traditional physical therapy without lasting results. In many cases, treatment focused only on the area of pain rather than addressing how the whole body is moving together.

I take a more comprehensive, hands-on approach to identify the root cause of the problem and treat the underlying restrictions contributing to your pain.

What makes your approach different from traditional physical therapy?

This is a one-on-one, hands-on approach that looks at the entire body, not just the area of pain.

I use a combination of advanced manual therapy techniques—including craniosacral therapy, myofascial release, joint mobilization, and muscle energy techniques—to restore alignment, improve mobility, and reduce strain on the system.

Each session is individualized based on what your body needs that day.

Do you treat chronic pain or conditions that haven’t improved?

Yes—this is a primary focus of my practice.

I frequently work with people who:

• Have had pain for months or years

• Have tried other treatments without success

• Feel stuck or frustrated

By taking a deeper, whole-body approach, we can often make progress where other treatments have not.

What conditions do you treat?

I commonly treat:

• Chronic neck and back pain

• Headaches and migraines

• Postural issues

• Shoulder and hip pain

• Dizziness and vertigo

• Pain related to movement or alignment issues

If you’re unsure whether I can help, you’re welcome to reach out to discuss your specific situation.

Do you use hands-on treatment?

Yes. Hands-on care is a central part of my approach.

Treatment may include techniques to improve joint mobility, release soft tissue restrictions, and restore balance throughout the body. This allows for more effective and lasting results.

Do I need a referral?

In Massachusetts, you can see a physical therapist without a referral (direct access).

If needed, I can coordinate with your physician or other providers as part of your care.

Do you accept insurance?

This is an out-of-network practice, which allows for longer, one-on-one sessions and more individualized care.

Detailed receipts can be provided upon request for possible reimbursement, depending on your plan.

How long are sessions?

Sessions are typically 60 minutes and are always one-on-one.

This allows enough time to fully assess and treat the underlying causes of your symptoms.

How many visits will I need?

This varies depending on your condition and goals.

Many people begin to notice changes within the first few visits, especially when addressing long-standing issues that have not improved with other treatments. The goal is always to make meaningful progress as efficiently as possible.

Where are you located and what areas do you serve?

The office is located in Medway, MA in the Medway Mill building across from Choate Park

I commonly see patients from Medway, Franklin, Bellingham, Holliston, Millis, Norfolk, Hopkinton, Milford, Medfield, and Wrentham.
