Initial assessments will last 60 minutes. During this time, your clinician will assess your issue and develop an individualized treatment plan. All subsequent treatment sessions will be 30 minutes in duration.
The amount of sessions will depend on the diagnosis provided by your clinician. Since each treatment plan is tailored to your specific needs, the rehabilitation process won’t be known until after the initial assessment.
Your clinician will provide you with all of the details of your treatment plan at this time.
