How long will my first appointment for physical therapy take?
Mine lasted almost two hours! Initial evaluations will take no more than 2 hours. The physical therapist must make a through evaluation. This includes an extensive interview on your living/work environment and how that affects your musculoskeletal condition. Depending on your condition, the appointment following the initial evaluation could take no longer than one hour. Some diagnoses necessitate a longer treatment per visit. Your therapist will explain this in detail to you during your first visit.
