Frequently Asked. Clear answers.
Do you accept insurance?
Core Elements is an Out-of-Network Provider. This means that I do not work directly with Insurance Companies and Payment is due at the time of service. I will provide you with a "super-bill" that you can submit to your insurance company for out-of-network benefits. Out-of-network benefits are determined by your individual insurance plan.
​
Do I need a prescription to make an appointment and start PT?
​
Feel free to bring your prescription along with you if you do have one. You don’t actually need it, in Virginia you can see a PT without a prescription because of Direct Access.
​
How much does it cost for an Evaluation or Treatment Session?
Please click on the “Book Now” button to see costs associated with each service. Your First Visit is an Initial Evaluation, and follow ups are Treatment Sessions.
Cancellation Policy
As a small business 24 hours advance notice is required to avoid being charged the full cost of the forfeited session. The booked slot is set aside for specifically for you and short notice forfeits the clinicians ability to place another patient in that slot.
​
What should I expect at my first session?
​
Your Evaluation and each treatment will always be one on one with me, Dr. Rachel. I provide a comfortable, quiet, and safe place knowing pelvic health is personal and emotional. My job is to hear your story, your concerns, and then assess through an evaluation how to help you return to the life you want.
Should I keep my appointment if I am menstruating?
Yes, please keep your appointment. There are other complementary and important components of your care such as; external tissue and joint manual treatments, neuromuscular reeducation, movement patterns, and educational aspects. We will have plenty else to stay busy with!
​
How do I know if I should book with you?
Hesitant to book? Consider booking a free 20 minute Virtual Discovery Session. I offer these for those who are on the fence about starting care and are maybe not sure if the concern you have is the “right” thing to come in for.
