What is Telemedicine?

In short, telemedicine is a virtual visit with your healthcare provider, using a secure, HIPAA-Compliant video conference platform. This method of providing care, specifically physical therapy services is a great way to begin or continue with your care when in-person visits are not an option, or your daily life is standing in the way of you getting back to living, working, and playing better.

Your therapist has received specialized training to be sure they can utilize this “video conference” technology to visualize how you are doing and use strategies to guide you and progress your program in this new setting.

Telemedicine allows Physical Therapists to guide you to perform prescribed exercises within your own home for the first time ever. This enables them to guide you with the exact equipment, space, and obstacles you have within your own home versus from a distance within the clinic.
