Is it necessary for my doctor to refer me for physical therapy?
Do you need physical therapy but don’t have a prescription? Not a problem!
Because of Direct Access regulations, individuals can go directly to a physical therapy clinic of their choice and obtain the materials and treatment they require.
Direct Access allows you to see a physical therapist without a prescription or a doctor’s referral. Physical therapy treatments and programs are now available to patients in all fifty states and the District of Columbia.
