Frequently Asked Questions

You won't be rushed through an appointment, handed a generic list of exercises, or given care without understanding how it connects to your goals.

We take the time to look at the full picture: what you're feeling, what may be contributing to it, what you've already tried, and what you want your body to be able to do.

Your plan may include hands-on care, movement, strength work, education, or changes to how you train and recover.  Every part of that plan should have a clear purpose.

The goal is not simply to help you feel better for a few days. It's to help you understand your body, make meaningful progress, and feel more confident in what you can handle.

Many of the people who come to us have already tried one or more of those approaches.

That doesn't mean the care was bad or that you did something wrong.

It may have helped temporarily without fully connecting the problem to the demands of your life.

Maybe the treatment focused only on where the pain was.  Maybe the exercises felt generic. 

Maybe no one explained how the plan was supposed to get you back to lifting, golfing, running, working, parenting, or feeling like yourself again.

We start by understanding what has and has not worked, then determine whether there is a different path worth taking.

No. Some people reach out because they are in pain. 

Others reach out because they feel stiff, weak, limited, disconnected from their body, or tired of constantly modifying what they do.

You may still be able to train, work, parent, or get through the day—but you know your body is not responding the way you expect it to.

You don't need to wait until the problem becomes unbearable to pursue care.

You will be one-on-one with your provider for 60 minutes.

Care may include hands-on treatment including but not limited to muscle work, chiropractic adjustments, cupping, dry needling, as well as targeted exercises, mobility work, strength training, education, and specific progressions related to your goals.

No cookie cutter care. You will understand what you are doing and why you are doing it.

No. The goal isn't to keep you dependent on appointments.

The frequency and length of care depend on what is going on, what you want to accomplish, and how your body responds.

Some people need help getting through a specific problem. 

Others want continued support as they return to training, prepare for birth, recover postpartum, or work toward a larger performance goal.

Either way, there should be a clear reason behind each stage of your care. 

The Movement Collective is an out-of-network practice.

Working outside of the traditional insurance model allows us to spend more time with you and build care around your needs and goals rather than the limits of an insurance-based visit.

Before beginning care, we will be clear about the recommended plan and the investment required.

Yes, we accept HSA and FSA plans.

Because every plan is different, we recommend confirming eligibility directly with your plan provider.

No referral is required to book your call, book an evaluation, or begin care at The Movement Collective.
