What is a Discovery Call?The FREE 15 minute Discovery call allows you to chat with a Doctor of Physical Therapy regarding your concerns to see if you and the therapist will be a good fit to work together. If so, you can book your initial evaluation right then and there. If for some reason it turns out the fit is less than ideal, we will do everything we can to get you going in the right direction towards the care you need!

We will perform a movement analysis, provide hands-on techniques and education in order to truly understand you and your goals and to give you a good understanding of your body.

Do I need a referral?No! Iowa is a Direct Access State meaning you do not need a doctor's referral to receive physical therapy services, yay! You can come directly to your PT as your first line of defense (offense, too)

Do you accept my Insurance?At Renew Physical Therapy & Wellness, we are considered an “out-of-network” provider. This means, insurance companies don’t get to dictate how we carry out a plan of care and how long we get to work together. This model puts the patient in the driver seat and allows the Doctors of Physical Therapy at Renew to give you the elevated, individualized care you deserve. We accept HSA/FSA as forms of payment upon service. You may be provided with a superbill after each visit to then submit on your own to your insurance company for potential full or partial reimbursement.

What is pelvic floor physical therapy and do I need it?Your pelvic floor is a group of muscles that help to stabilize and support your hips and pelvis as well as your internal organs. It also assists with sexual function, circulation and sphincteric functioning. Any time any of these functions isn’t working properly, we consider this to be a dysfunction. Dysfunctions of the pelvic floor do not discriminate to age, sex, race or any other categorization. Anyone can experience pelvic floor dysfunction and symptoms range widely from urinary or fecal incontinence, to pain with urination or intercourse, to abnormal tone of the muscles, and even generalize hip and low back pain can be caused by pelvic floor dysfunction. If you are experiencing dysfunction of any kind, you could benefit from pelvic floor physical therapy.
