{ "@context": "https://schema.org", "@type": "FAQPage", "mainEntity": [ { "@type": "Question", "name": "What makes NeoLife different from regular physical therapy clinics?", "acceptedAnswer": { "@type": "Answer", "text": "At NeoLife, every plan begins with a detailed movement assessment to address the root cause rather than just symptoms. Patients work one-on-one with a licensed physical therapist instead of rotating between providers or machines. Care is manual-therapy intensive, combining hands-on treatment with corrective exercise, sports-specific drills, and wellness options to move patients from pain to full performance. The clinic emphasizes a family-style culture with individualized plans tailored to each person’s goals, sport, job, and schedule." } }, { "@type": "Question", "name": "What does “manual therapy intensive” mean for my treatment?", "acceptedAnswer": { "@type": "Answer", "text": "Manual therapy intensive means a significant portion of each session involves hands-on techniques such as joint mobilization, soft-tissue work, trigger-point therapy, and stretching. These techniques improve joint motion, muscle function, and nervous system response. Improvements are immediately reinforced with personalized exercises so results carry over into daily life and sport." } }, { "@type": "Question", "name": "Do you only treat athletes, or is NeoLife for anyone with pain or injury?", "acceptedAnswer": { "@type": "Answer", "text": "NeoLife has a strong sports and performance focus but treats more than athletes. Services include care for neck and back pain, shoulder and knee problems, arthritis-related stiffness, post-surgical recovery, youth athletes, weekend warriors, tactical populations, and active adults seeking pain relief or improved performance." } }, { "@type": "Question", "name": "What conditions do you treat at NeoLife?", "acceptedAnswer": { "@type": "Answer", "text": "Conditions treated include spine pain (neck, mid-back, low back pain, disc issues, sciatica), joint problems (shoulder impingement, rotator cuff issues, hip and knee pain, ankle sprains, plantar pain), sports injuries (muscle strains, ligament injuries, overuse injuries, tendinopathy, return-to-sport rehab), and post-surgical rehabilitation such as ACL reconstruction, rotator cuff repair, and joint replacements. General mobility, balance, and strength deficits are also addressed." } }, { "@type": "Question", "name": "Do you offer sports performance and injury-prevention programs even if I’m not currently injured?", "acceptedAnswer": { "@type": "Answer", "text": "Yes. NeoLife provides performance and wellness programs focused on movement quality, strength, power, and conditioning. Programs may include movement screening, strength and mobility testing, customized training plans, and periodic re-testing. These services are ideal for athletes and active adults aiming to improve performance and reduce injury risk." } }, { "@type": "Question", "name": "What is functional dry needling and is it available at NeoLife?", "acceptedAnswer": { "@type": "Answer", "text": "Functional dry needling uses a thin, solid filament needle to target tight or overactive muscle tissue to reduce pain and improve function. No medication is used; the goal is to improve muscle tone and nervous system input. In Mississippi, dry needling is regulated for physical therapists with specific training. NeoLife offers dry needling through qualified providers and combines it with manual therapy and movement training." } }, { "@type": "Question", "name": "Do you have aquatic therapy or other specialty options?", "acceptedAnswer": { "@type": "Answer", "text": "Yes. NeoLife offers aquatic therapy to reduce joint load while improving strength and balance, especially helpful after injury or surgery. Additional specialty services include sports rehabilitation, orthopedic manual therapy, performance training, and dry needling when appropriate." } }, { "@type": "Question", "name": "What should I expect at my first NeoLife appointment?", "acceptedAnswer": { "@type": "Answer", "text": "The first visit includes a detailed discussion of history, symptoms, job or sport demands, and goals, followed by a movement-based evaluation assessing posture, mobility, strength, and control. Afterward, the therapist explains the main drivers of the issue and outlines a clear treatment plan. Most patients receive hands-on treatment and starter exercises on the first day." } }, { "@type": "Question", "name": "How long are visits and will I see the same therapist each time?", "acceptedAnswer": { "@type": "Answer", "text": "Session length varies based on the plan of care, but visits are structured to ensure adequate one-on-one time for assessment, manual therapy, and exercise coaching. Patients typically work with the same therapist or small therapist team throughout care to maintain continuity and accurate progress tracking." } }, { "@type": "Question", "name": "Will you coordinate with my surgeon/doctor/coach?", "acceptedAnswer": { "@type": "Answer", "text": "Yes. With patient permission, therapists communicate with surgeons, physicians, and other specialists to align restrictions and goals, particularly for post-surgical or complex cases. NeoLife also collaborates with coaches and trainers to ensure rehabilitation and training plans complement each other." } }, { "@type": "Question", "name": "Can I come directly to NeoLife without a physician referral?", "acceptedAnswer": { "@type": "Answer", "text": "Mississippi allows a form of direct access to physical therapy, meaning many patients can begin care without a physician referral depending on their condition and insurance plan. Some insurance providers may still require a referral. NeoLife staff verify benefits and guide patients on next steps." } }, { "@type": "Question", "name": "Do you take my insurance and what are my options if I self-pay?", "acceptedAnswer": { "@type": "Answer", "text": "NeoLife works with insurance and standard payment methods such as major credit cards. The billing team verifies coverage, explains expected copays or coinsurance, and reviews visit limits before care begins. Self-pay options may include flat per-visit rates, packages, or performance-only programs not billed to insurance." } }, { "@type": "Question", "name": "Do you offer performance or wellness services that are separate from insurance-based PT?", "acceptedAnswer": { "@type": "Answer", "text": "Yes. Performance and wellness services are core offerings and may include performance testing, individualized strength and conditioning, movement quality programs, and ongoing fitness coaching. These services are typically structured as cash-pay or package-based programs, allowing flexibility in frequency and programming intensity." } }, { "@type": "Question", "name": "How fast will I see results with your hands-on, evidence-informed approach?", "acceptedAnswer": { "@type": "Answer", "text": "Many patients notice improvement within the first few sessions, especially with the combination of manual therapy and targeted exercise. Timelines vary depending on how long the issue has been present, tissue healing factors, and adherence to home exercises. The focus is on meaningful, lasting progress rather than temporary relief." } }, { "@type": "Question", "name": "How do you decide what techniques to use on me?", "acceptedAnswer": { "@type": "Answer", "text": "Treatment decisions begin with a detailed assessment of symptoms, movement patterns, strength, and relevant medical history. Therapists identify the primary drivers of the issue and select evidence-informed interventions such as manual therapy, dry needling, exercise progressions, neuromuscular training, or performance work. Plans are reassessed and adjusted as progress occurs." } }, { "@type": "Question", "name": "What does your “family culture” and “doing it the right way” look like day-to-day?", "acceptedAnswer": { "@type": "Answer", "text": "NeoLife’s family culture emphasizes knowing patients by name, celebrating progress, and understanding each person’s goals. Patients are treated as individuals, not just diagnoses. Doing it the right way means prioritizing quality movement, evidence-informed care, long-term results, honest communication, appropriate referrals when needed, and supportive accountability." } } ] }
