Is On-Demand Physical Therapy Better?

Written by Lily Beltran | Aug 20, 2019 6:00:00 PM

Today’s consumers want it all—convenience, service, and excellent value. Companies such as DoorDash and Grubhub have elevated food ordering and delivery to new service levels. While healthcare is not an industry known for such convenience, physical therapists and their patients are embracing the on-demand model with great success.

What Are The Top Benefits of On-Demand Physical Therapy?

On-demand physical therapy offers personalized service and attention that you won’t get in a busy clinic. To make ends meet, PTs often have to see two patients at one time. You may find yourself passed off to an assistant while the therapist helps another patient. With on-demand PT, you receive 45 to 55 minutes of dedicated care, so you can heal faster in fewer treatments

Instead of you going to a clinic or hospital, your PT will bring a treatment table and a mobile kit right to you. After all, 90%+ of cases don’t need those heavy machines. Even more importantly, your on-demand physical therapist will create a practical program that fits your personal environment and lifestyle. You’ll be much more likely to complete your course of care when you don’t have to battle traffic, childcare, waitlists, waiting rooms, and time away from work.
