FAQs

Is Pin-Point PT in-network with insurance?
Pin-Point Physical Therapy is an out-of-network provider to ensure high-quality, one-on-one care without the time constraints or treatment limitations often imposed by insurance companies. With today’s high premiums and deductibles, many patients find that our cash-based model is actually more cost-effective.

​

For example, a typical in-network PT visit may cost $100–$150 after copays and deductible adjustments—often for only 15–30 minutes of care shared with multiple patients. In contrast, our sessions are 60 minutes of focused, one-on-one treatment at a flat rate, with no hidden facility fees.

​

We accept FSA, HSA, cash, credit, debit, and checks. Upon request, we can provide a detailed receipt (superbill) for patients who wish to submit for reimbursement through their out-of-network benefits.

​

Location?

Pin-Point PT is located at Paragon Health and Fitness in Rocky River Ohio: 19970 Ingersoll Dr, Rocky River, OH 44116

 

Do I need a Physician Referral?

No! The state of Ohio does not require a physician referral for physical therapy, especially for cash-based services!

 

How Long are Appointments?

Physical Therapy initial evaluations are 75 minutes with follow-ups being 60 minutes. Maintenance sessions are generally 30 mins, created for established patients looking for occasional tune-ups. 

 

What is the New Patient Procedure?

Intake form and consent forms will  be posted to the patient’s PT Everywhere account to complete before the initial evaluation. The initial examination will include a history taking of the patient's present function, possible deficits and functional goals that they want to achieve with physical therapy. It is Pin-Point PT's goal to get to know each patient at an individual level to further assist in a customized plan of care. 

 

What is Dry Needling? Will it Hurt?

Dry needling is a minimally invasive therapy technique which can help stimulate blood flow to sore muscles, tendons, and trigger points. There is also a central effect on the body, helping calm down irritated nerves. Dry needling usually draws no blood and is minimally painful, though soreness afterwards is common. 

​

From The Integrative Dry Needling Website:

"Neurologic Dry Needling (NDN) is the evolution from needling points (myofascial trigger points) to needling the system. NDN is utilized to treat all types of neuromusculoskeletal conditions.  These conditions are not limited to orthopedics but are applicable to any condition where inflammation (neurogenic), reduced blood flow and muscle guarding is present.  The NDN treatment system is based on peripheral and central neurologic principles, which is not limited by the traditional trigger point paradigm.  Using the peripheral nerve mapping model allows a broader opportunity to deliver treatment locally, segmentally, and most importantly systemically. "

​

​"Treatment of acute and sub-acute pain can respond favorably to dry needling that is focused locally i.e. at the site of pain.  However, patient tolerance can be a limiting factor with a solely local approach that relies on the all or nothing production of a “twitch”.  Failure of this approach may be related to excessive needling dosage required to obtain the goal of exhausting the muscle’s twitch response.  The NDN model does not rely on this shot gun treatment approach; varied levels of stimulation and precise targeting of tissue allows a less vigorous dosage, reduced adverse events and better patient tolerance.  "
