Frequently Asked Questions
We understand that you may have some questions about our practice, so here’s some information that will help set your mind at ease.
Yes, you will always have an individual appointment with your Physical Therapist, Shannon DeSalvo.
What sets Shannon apart from other pelvic physical therapists in Kansas City is the personal touch she brings to every aspect of her practice. When you reach out, it’s Shannon who answers the phone, replies to your texts or emails, and guides you through each step of your care. There are no students or assistants involved in your treatment—you receive Shannon's full attention and benefit from her years of expertise.
Your physical therapist will first sit down with you and discuss your medical history and reason for your appointment.
After careful consideration of all the data collected, she will then decide if a pelvic floor exam is warranted. If at any time you do not feel comfortable, just let your therapist know, and the physical exam will stop so that you can discuss your concerns/expectations.
Rehab for Her now offers Telehealth services. This is a virtual therapy session performed through secure video conference one-on-one between a Rehab For Her licensed practitioner and her patient.
As our practitioners cannot give hands-on, manual services over the computer, the duration of the appointment may be shortened depending on unique needs. Telehealth sessions are available in shorter session durations of 15, 30 and 45-minute increments instead of the typical 60-minute session, which may also bring costs down for the patient.
To schedule a Telehealth appointment, simply contact us.
Many Rehab For Her clients have achieved their goals in just 3 to 5 appointment sessions!
Sessions typically last 60-70 minutes, depending on your needs. The frequency of visits will depend on your condition and progress, but many patients start with weekly sessions and gradually reduce the frequency as symptoms improve.
