Frequently Asked Questions

Do you accept insurance?

At BAR Physical Therapy, our priority is delivering the highest level of care to help you move, train, and perform at your best. While we do work with certain cases like worker’s compensation and personal injury, most of our services are provided on a cash-pay basis.

Why? Because it allows us to focus entirely on you. Insurance companies often dictate visit length, frequency, and treatment approaches, which can restrict the level of care you actually need to recover and perform. Unfortunately, our healthcare system is profit-motivated, not patient-centered.

By operating outside of those constraints, we’re able to:

  • Spend one-on-one time with you for a full hour. 
  • Build individualized programs
  • Focus on long-term results, not just short-term symptom relief.

We still accept a small handful of insurances that align with our ability to maintain a 1-on-1 model such as: 

  • Aetna
  • Tricare/Triwest
  • Workers compensation claims 
  • Personal injury claims

We are very experienced at navigating the authorization systems of TriCare and TriWest, as detailed on our physical therapy for veterans page.

We have very affordable cash pay prices and can accept HSA/FSA accounts.

Yes, we accept payments from HSA/FSA accounts.

Alternatively, you can submit your receipt to your HSA/FSA account and be reimbursed what you pay for our physical therapy services.

What does physical therapy include?

Physical therapy services help to clear any kind of pain when it comes from the musculoskeletal system. Treatments can include but are not limited to manual therapy, dry needling, corrective exercise, manipulations, mobilizations, Epley maneuvers, PNF, MET, cupping, scraping, and much more.

Do you guys use aides or techs?

No we do not. Every patient gets 1-on-1 time with the doctor of physical therapy for an hour.

How do I reschedule an appointment?
You can call or text our office number at (480) 770-0752. You can also email us at info@barphysicaltherapy.net.
How many sessions does it usually take to finish PT?

We typically find great results between 5-10 sessions for non-traumatic injuries. HOWEVER, it does depend on the severity of injury.

For example, post-surgical cases can take up to a few months to fully resolve.

Do I need to see my PCP before seeing you?

No, Arizona is a direct access state so you can come see us right away.

The notable exception would be if your case is a Worker's Comp case. If your case involves Worker's Compensation, then you will need a referral from a physician prior to the start of treatment.

Do you accept workers compensation cases?

Yes, all we need to get started is

  • Your employer’s name
  • Your Workers Comp insurance name
  • Name and number of the adjuster
  • Your claim number
  • Your date of injury
  • The affected body part

Learn more about our Worker's Comp services on our Worker's Comp physical therapy page.
