@helennicola I’ve been told it’s because it’s classified as a type of massage not physical therapy and I guess massage is not covered by insurance?

Hi again Helen. That is strange. I guess coverage depends on the health insurance. I have had MFR with home health this year. I was the one to instigate treatment with a local home health agency. It did my “shopping around “ and found a physical therapist who had 20 years experience with MFR and dizziness or balance disorders. I only wanted a PT clinician to come out. No skilled nurse or CNA( Certified Nursing Assistant) was needed. Remember all PTs have to get a PhD degree through college to qualify as a PT. They get their license for the state they will be practicing in. I believe there is a a medical license look up in every state. There is one in my state. It can be done online. One can look up licenses for all medical disciplines i.e. doctors, nurses, CNAs, therapist in speech, occupational, and physical, etc. All PTs can perform treatments under their license. Some are more qualified than others because they received special training through a certification program. You may ask for a PT who has experience with a certain treatment or one that has certification. A certified PT in a particular field may be harder to find. Hope this helps. Toni
