What should I bring to my appointment?
During your initial assessment, your therapist will look at your eight major load bearing joints: Your two shoulders, two hips, two knees, and two ankles. Please wear (or bring clothes to change into) that will allow for this to be a simple process. Please wear shorts. Women should wear a sports bra. If you aren't comfortable in a sports bra, please wear a tank top. Also, please wear a pair of athletic shoes (lace up is suggested).
What will happen during my appointment?
You and your therapist will discuss the pain or performance concerns that you are currently having. A postural assessment, functional testing, and gait analysis will be done to determine your compensations and dysfunctions that are causing your pain. Posture photos will be taken every few visits to track the progress of your structural changes. Your therapist will develop a series of e-cises, called your "Menu", to address your specific compensations and dysfunctions. Your menu will change every week to adapt to the musculoskeletal changes that will be taking place in your body.
How long does an appointment last?
Generally you should plan to be at an appointment anywhere from 1-2 hours. Appointment length may vary based on symptom severity or number of e-cises in your Menu.
How long will it take to complete my therapy?
Everyone responds differently. We have had clients get pain free in just a few sessions where others have had several dozen sessions.
Do you use manipulation, instruments, or machines in your therapy?
No. The therapy is completely hands off. The exercises are performed by you, thus putting control of your health back in your hands.
Does Egoscue accept insurance?
Because Egoscue is 100% non-medical, insurance is not accepted. We have had many clients have success with getting reimbursement from their insurance company after submitting their receipts and treatment plans to their respective companies. We also suggest that you check with your company health reimbursement programs such as Flexible Spending Accounts (FSA) or Health Savings Account (HSA).
Will I have to purchase expensive equipment to complete my therapy?
No. Some of the equipment used to perform your e-cises can be found around your house, or inexpensively purchased through our equipment provider TherapyZone.
