Initial visits and follow-ups are 60 minutes, one-on-one with Dr. Alex from start to finish. Movement & Performance Assessments are 90 minutes. Every session is uninterrupted — evaluation, treatment, and programming in a single visit.

No. California has direct access, so you can start with Dr. Alex without a referral. If imaging or a specialist consult becomes useful along the way, he'll point you in the right direction.

This practice is private-pay. You'll receive a superbill you can submit to your insurer for out-of-network reimbursement. The trade-off: longer sessions, no quotas, and care designed around you — not your plan's billing rules.

Because insurance decides how physical therapy gets delivered, and this affects the quality of your care. In-network clinics are paid per visit, so the model pushes toward short appointments, a few clients an hour, and a plan capped at whatever your policy authorizes. I'd rather spend a full hour with you, treat hands-on when that's the right tool, and build the plan around your goals instead of a visit limit. You'll get a superbill after each session, and many PPO plans reimburse part of it out-of-network. If you're weighing the cost, it's worth a quick call to your insurer. A lot of people find that fewer, better sessions land close to what a long in-network course would have cost them.

That's the most common backstory I hear. Traditional PT often hands you a sheet of generic exercises and rotates you between aides. The work here looks different — 1-on-1 throughout, hands-on treatment when it's the right tool, and progressive programming designed around what you're actually trying to do.

It depends on what you're working through. After your first visit, you'll have a clear sense of the plan, the milestones, and roughly how long it will take. The goal isn't to keep you on the schedule — it's to get you confidently back to your life.

Yes. The Movement & Performance Assessment is built for exactly that — a deep look at how you move before something breaks down, followed by a program that addresses what shows up.

Wear something you'd train in. Bring any imaging or recent reports if you have them, and a brief sense of your training and what you're trying to get back to. We'll cover the rest.

House calls are available by contact. Hands-on care is core to how I work, so the most value comes from being in the same room — but reach out and we'll figure out the right fit for your situation.
