You can see a physical therapist for evaluation and treatment without a physician's referral.* And if your injury is work-related, physical therapists are now recognized as treating physicians under Montana's workers' compensation system — meaning you can choose to see a PT first for any workplace injury.
Physical therapists are movement experts who improve quality of life through hands-on care, patient education, and prescribed movement. Contact a physical therapist for an evaluation and treatment that's specific to you.
*A referral may still be required by your insurance policy, corporate policies, or state practice laws. Some states limit the type or duration of treatment without a referral.
