Frequently Asked Questions
No. Texas is a direct-access state, which means you can schedule an appointment with
a physical therapist without a physician referral. Whether you're recovering from an
injury, dealing with pain, or looking to improve performance, you can book an evaluation
with Zeek PT directly.
Absolutely. While we specialize in helping athletes and active adults, you don't have to
be a competitive athlete to benefit from our care. Whether you're training for a race,
recovering from surgery, lifting in the gym, or simply want to move without pain, our goal
is to help you recover, perform, and stay active.
Cash-based(self-pay) refers to our payment model—not the form of payment.
At Zeek PT, we don't bill health insurance, but we accept credit cards, debit cards,
HSA/FSA cards, cash, and checks. As a cash-based physical therapy clinic in North
Austin, we're able to provide personalized one-on-one care without insurance
restrictions.
Your first visit is a comprehensive one-on-one evaluation with a Doctor of Physical
Therapy. We'll discuss your history, assess how you move, identify the root cause of
your symptoms, begin hands-on treatment when appropriate, and create a personalized
recovery plan with exercises you can start right away.
Initial evaluations and follow-up visits typically range from $170–$200, depending on the
type and length of your appointment. We also offer treatment packages for patients
looking to maximize their recovery or performance while reducing the cost per visit.
