Common questions
Your first visit is a full-hour evaluation with a Doctor of Physical Therapy. We take a history, screen your movement and strength, find the real driver of the problem, map it to a goal-based program, and start hands-on treatment that same day. You’ll leave with a clear plan and a home program on the app.
Your home program lives on the Kinetic app: each exercise has a short demo video, your sets and reps, and a place to log how it felt. Your therapist updates it as you progress, and can see your logs before each visit so we spend time on what matters.
