What is Telehealth?

Telehealth uses technology to deliver an in-person experience from a distance. Telehealth Therapy can be compared to out-patient therapy in delivery as well as the breadth of conditions that your therapist can treat.

Our goals for your Telehealth Therapy Session are the same as any other outpatient therapy.

Our patient-centered Telehealth program focuses on outcomes for individuals who might have a compromised immune system, cannot travel, or need a convenient home-based appointment. Telehealth is also for those who are traveling or are seasonally away.

Telehealth is very similar to the outpatient therapy you normally receive, except that you can enjoy the session from the comfort of your own home, in your office, or while traveling. 

How is a Telehealth Session Conducted?

There are a variety of Telehealth or teleconferencing platforms including popular consumer solutions like Skype, FaceTime, and zoom. Fyzical Therapy has chosen to use a secure, HIPAA-compliant platform that allows you to participate in a Telehealth Physical Therapy session in front of a computer, on a tablet, or even from your smartphone with the highest security and privacy features.

Your Telehealth therapy session will be very similar to a standard session. First, your therapist is going to ask you questions related to your goals, your current condition, and any limitations you may currently be facing that prevent you from achieving those goals.

What About HIPAA and The Safety of My Private Data?

To provide Telehealth to our patients, Fyzical abides by current HIPAA privacy policies. This is why we use a highly-encrypted, secure platform to deliver our Telehealth sessions.
