Frequently Asked Questions

We are located in Alexandria, VA, just south of Old Town in the Fort Hunt area. We treat patients in our houses. You can see a video of our clinic spaces on our instagram(@athenawellnesspt).
No! In Virginia, you no longer need a referral to come to physical therapy. 
Yes, of course! Children are always welcome at appointments. We have plenty of toys to keep kids busy!
Typically, it is recommended that patients come to us once or twice a week for about 6-8 weeks. After your first session, we will decide on a plan together that we both agree on.
No. We do not work directly with insurance companies, which means we are an out-of-network provider. This allows us to focus fully on your care without insurance-driven limitations. After your visit, we provide a superbill, which is a detailed receipt you can submit to your insurance company for reimbursement if you have out-of-network services in your specific plan.
This allows for more time with each individual patient, delivering a treatment plan that is truly personalized to you as opposed to following insurance guided care. 

Yes!

As mentioned above, we will provide you with a Superbill, which is an itemized receipt that you can then send to your insurance company for reimbursement. However, we do recommend contacting your insurance company before starting your sessions to see what benefits for physical therapy your provider offers.

We are an out of network approved provider for Medicare. This means you pay for your sessions upfront and then you can submit a form to Medicare directly for reimbursement of your visits. If you are a Medicare beneficiary and have questions about care at our clinic, please call us at 757-532-9804.
