PHYSICAL THERAPY | MOUNT PLEASANT

YOUR QUESTIONS ANSWERED

Stay active, eliminate pain, build strength, and prevent recurrent injuries with personalized physical therapy and long-term musculoskeletal wellness programs.

  • Do I need a referral to see a physical therapist in South Carolina?

    No. South Carolina allows direct access to physical therapy, so you do not need a doctor’s referral to start care at ALTR Performance & Physical Therapy.

  • Do you accept insurance for physical therapy in Mount Pleasant, SC?

    ALTR Performance & Physical Therapy is out of network with insurance. Clients pay directly at the time of service and receive a superbill that can be submitted for potential reimbursement, depending on their insurance plan.

  • Why is ALTR Performance & Physical Therapy out of network?

    Being out of network allows for 60-minute, one-on-one sessions, thorough assessments, and individualized treatment without insurance restrictions or double-booking multiple patients at once.

  • How long are physical therapy sessions at ALTR?

    All physical therapy sessions at ALTR are 60 minutes and conducted one-on-one with your physical therapist.

  • How many physical therapy sessions will I need?

    The number of sessions depends on your condition, goals, and how long the issue has been present. Many clients notice meaningful improvement within 4–6 sessions, while others benefit from ongoing care as they return to higher-level activity.

  • What should I wear to a physical therapy appointment?

    Wear comfortable athletic clothing that allows for movement and makes it easy to assess how your body moves, such as shorts, leggings, or gym attire.

  • Where is ALTR Performance & Physical Therapy located?

    ALTR Performance & Physical Therapy is located inside DUFF at 539 Long Point Road, Suite 201, Mount Pleasant, SC 29464.

  • What if I’ve tried physical therapy before and it didn’t work?

    Many ALTR clients have tried physical therapy before without success. A lack of results often comes from rushed sessions, generic programs, or limited one-on-one care—not from physical therapy itself.

  • Can physical therapy help me get stronger, not just out of pain?

    Yes. Physical therapy at ALTR helps clients build strength, improve movement, and increase confidence during training and daily activity—even if they are not currently injured.

  • Do you offer virtual physical therapy sessions?

    Most care at ALTR is provided in person due to the hands-on nature of assessment and treatment. Virtual sessions may be offered on a case-by-case basis for existing clients.
