Direct Access to Physical Therapy in Michigan

As of January 1, 2015, Michigan law allows patients to begin physical therapy without a physician’s referral. This means you can consult directly with our licensed physical therapists to address your movement, mobility, and recovery goals.

What This Means for You

  • Immediate Access
    Start physical therapy right away—no need to wait for a doctor’s appointment or referral.
  • Qualified Care
    Our therapists are licensed professionals, many with Doctorates in Physical Therapy and extensive clinical experience, fully authorized to evaluate and treat you directly.
  • Flexible Treatment
    You can begin treatment without restrictions. However, if treatment extends beyond 21 days or 10 visits, Michigan law requires that a physical therapist consult with or refer you to a licensed healthcare provider.

 

Important Considerations

  • Scope of Practice
    If your condition appears outside the scope of physical therapy, we’ll refer you to an appropriate provider to ensure safe, effective care.
  • Insurance Coverage
    While Michigan law permits direct access, some insurance plans may still require a referral for coverage. Our front desk team can help verify your benefits and coordinate with your provider if needed.
