WHY ARE WE PRIVATE PAY?
Our goal is to provide private treatments that focus solely on YOU and your needs.
Due to increasing restrictions placed by insurance companies, patients are receiving less individual care and are often seen in a multi-patient environment. Patients receive less one-on-one time with their therapist and are often discharged before reaching their goals.
These restrictions do not exist at Empower PT.
We teach you movement freedom through individual attention with a hands-on approach. Empower wants to be your personal physical therapist, movement advocate, and cheerleader for reaching your health goals. This is done as we are not restricted to one body part, diagnosis, or number of sessions.
Although we are not in-network with any healthcare insurance, we are able to provide you with a superbill for you to submit to your insurance company. This is a receipt with all of the information that your insurance company requires for an insurance claim. Depending on your insurance plan, submitting a superbill may enable you to receive reimbursement from your insurance company based on your out-of-network benefits. Please contact your insurance company directly to receive details on your benefits.
In addition, Empower PT does accept Health Savings Account (HSA) and Flexible Spending Accounts (FSA) cards.

Do you accept insurance?
No, we are not in network with any healthcare insurance. But, we are able to provide a superbill for you to submit to your insurance company.

What COVID safety measures have we implemented?
Edit as of 5/3/2021: Gov. DeSantis issued an executive order suspending all local COVID-19 restrictions. Due to this, Empower PT does not require face masks while in the studio. However, if you prefer to wear a mask, you are encouraged to do so. All team members are more than happy to wear a mask during your treatment time if requested. As a business, we strive to ensure your safety by cleaning all equipment and high touch points between each client.
Edit as of 5/16/2021: If you are fully vaccinated you may choose to wear or not wear your mask while in the studio.
Empower PT is a spacious and private setting that allows for social distancing to be maintained.
If you have any special requests for your instructor or therapist please feel more than welcome to share those with them so they can make you feel as safe as possible.

Do you provide water?
We do provide filtered water and cups, and bottled water is available upon request. Due to COVID-19 safety measures we recommend bringing your own water bottle.
