Why would I choose Peak Form PT over other Physical Therapy Clinics?

Peak Form Physical Therapy stands out from the competition by always providing quality care in a patient-centered atmosphere. Longer treatment sessions with more personal attention is what sets Peak Form apart from other physical therapy providers. At Peak Form we guarantee one hour appointments that are always with a Colorado licensed physical therapist.
Peak Form Physical Therapy patients benefit from our proximity and collaborative relationship with the Mountain Edge Fitness Center by use of their top quality exercise equipment during treatment and, a “free” month membership after discharge from physical therapy.

What is your affiliation with Mountain's Edge Fitness Center?

Peak Form Physical Therapy and Mountain's Edge Fitness Center are two separate business entities which occupy the same building space and have a mutually beneficial, collaborative relationship. If exercise prescription is necessary for your physical therapy treatment, we will use the treadmills, bikes, and cybex machines located in the Mountain Edge Fitness center.
After you are discharged from physical therapy, all patients are entitled to a “free” month membership at the MEFC. This can be used to continue on with your prescribed physical therapy routine and/or do any exercise of your choice.

What is a free 15 minute Orthopedic Screening?

An Orthopedic Screen is a free service provided by the licensed Physical Therapists at Peak Form Physical Therapy to answer any questions you may have about your physical health. During this screening the physical therapist will do a brief Physical Therapy evaluation and provide a recommendation for treatment and/or follow-up care. This 15 minute screening should provide you with quick answers to your questions and recommendations for treatment. If necessary, it might be recommended that you see a physician or schedule a physical therapy visit for a more comprehensive physical therapy evaluation and treatment.

Do you accept my insurance?

Peak Form Physical Therapy is contracted with all major insurance networks, and therefore we most likely accept your insurance. Please check our list of accepted insurance policies to double check your plan. If you have any questions please call us at 303-402-9283 to discuss the specifics of your plan with our front office staff.

What if I have no insurance?

No insurance, no problem. If you do not have insurance (or have a very high deductible so would rather not go through insurance) we do offer a 50% discount to our ‘private pay’ patients. Unfortunately, we are unable to provide an estimate regarding the cost of your appointment because it will depend on your condition and which physical therapy treatment techniques are required to treat your condition.

How long will my visit last?

Appointments are typically last 1 hour.

What should I wear to PT?

For your initial physical therapy visit it is important to wear (or bring) clothing that will allow us to evaluate your injury. For example, if you have a knee injury please bring shorts, if you have a shoulder injury please bring a tank top.
If your therapy consists of exercise, please wear or bring closed toe shoes and appropriate exercise clothing.

Will you communicate with my physician regarding my PT treatment?

Peak Form Physical Therapy therapists are in frequent communication with referring physicians.
After your first physical therapy appointment a typed evaluation will be faxed to your MD. We will re-evaluate your condition approximately once per month of treatment and send progress notes to your doctor accordingly, please advise us if you have a follow-up visit with your doctor and we will ensure that a progress note awaits your doctor before your appointment so that they are up to date on your physical therapy progress and current status.
