What makes physical therapy at Arch PT and Fitness different?

  • I spend 55 minutes 1:1 with you, finding the root cause of your pain and making a plan you can actually stick to.
  • You receive a follow up email within 24 hours of the visit, recapping the entire session. No more walking out of appointments and forgetting what you were supposed to do.
  • I send you a program to do at home, specially telling you how often, and video of how to perform the exercise.
  • I hold you accountable to actually make progress, because the 55 minutes you are with me is just apart of the overall plan.
  • As you decrease pain, and increase function, we will likely meet less frequently. I will check in with you between sessions to make sure everything is going according to plan.

For your convenience, Arch Physical Therapy and Fitness offers in-person physical therapy in Boston and Newton and virtual physical therapy services. 

In-Person and Virtual Physical Therapy Services

55 minute initial evaluation ($250)

During our initial evaluation, we will begin by discussing why you are seeking physical therapy, I will ask detailed questions to understand where you are at that moment, and what your goals are. Then I will take tests and measurements to guide my treatment approach. We will discuss a plan for your treatment and follow-up care. Prior to wrapping up, we will get started on your physical therapy so you have something to work on until we meet again. Following your appointment, you will receive a home program and an overview of our first physical therapy session. This can be in person or virtual.
The virtual evaluation would be a good fit for someone who has had physical therapy in the past, and has access to baseline equipment (depending on area of injury, weights and/or bands) at home.

55 minute follow up ($250)

This is for clients who have already had an initial evaluation with Schuyler. This is a treatment session may include manual therapy, dry needling, exercise, and updating your home program. This will be based on the plan of care you discussed with Schuyler at the initial evaluation. This can be an in person or virtual session.

Consultation ($150)

This a 30 minute virtual consultation call. This is for someone who is looking to get advice on how to proceed with managing an injury or pain, without a formal evaluation. Schuyler will create an action plan for you after asking specific questions to get to the root cause of your pain. She will also send you exercises after the session. This is a virtual option only. Click here to schedule.

Body work ($125)

Body work consists of manual therapy (dry needling, soft tissue massage, joint mobility, and/or range of motion). This does not include exercise and is up to 30 minutes long. These sessions are recommended for people who have already gone through an initial evaluation (in person or online), and who are comfortable and confident with their home program, but need hands-on, in-person treatment. Therefore it is not a full follow up, if you need both manual therapy and exercise treatment, please do not select this option. If you are a current client, Schuyler likely already discussed this option with you if you are a good fit.
