No statement on this Website should be interpreted as a guarantee of any specific outcome or recovery.

Not a Substitute for Medical Evaluation

Direct Access

Maine law allows direct access to physical therapy in many situations without a physician referral.

However, direct access does not mean physical therapy is appropriate for every medical condition.

Foundation Physical Therapy reserves the right to recommend referral to a physician, emergency department, specialist, or other healthcare provider whenever examination findings indicate that additional medical evaluation is appropriate.

Educational Content

These programs are specifically prescribed based on an individual's evaluation and treatment plan.
