Frequently Asked Questions
What conditions does ITR Physical Therapy treat?
ITR specializes in pelvic health conditions including pelvic floor dysfunction, prenatal and postpartum care, incontinence, pelvic pain, painful intercourse, constipation, and endometriosis-related symptoms. We also treat orthopedic injuries, chronic pain, and sports-related conditions with a holistic, evidence-based approach.
Do you accept insurance?
Yes, ITR Physical Therapy is in-network with most major insurance providers. We recommend contacting your insurance company to verify coverage for physical therapy services. Our friendly office staff can also help answer any billing questions when you call.
What makes ITR different from other physical therapy clinics?
Every session at ITR is a full hour of one-on-one care with your physical therapist—no assistants or shared appointments. Our team specializes in pelvic health and takes time to understand the root cause of your symptoms, not just treat the pain. We combine manual therapy, therapeutic exercise, and patient education to create personalized treatment plans that fit your lifestyle and goals.
Do I need a referral to schedule an appointment?
Maryland allows direct access to physical therapy, which means you do not need a referral from a physician to see a physical therapist. However, some insurance plans may require a referral for coverage. We recommend checking with your insurance provider, and our team is happy to help guide you through the process.
How long does each appointment last, and how many sessions will I need?
Each physical therapy session at ITR lasts a full hour. The number of sessions varies depending on your condition, goals, and progress. During your initial evaluation, your therapist will discuss a personalized treatment plan and give you an estimated timeline for recovery.
