Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between discount plans and a membership?
Discount plans are best suited for people coming in with a specific concern that may require a course of treatment. After your evaluation, The therapist will assess how many visits may be beneficial so you can decide if a discount plan makes sense for you.
Membership is centered on wellness, community, and relationship-based care. It is a good option if you want an advocate who knows you and your body, and who can support you with proactive check-ins and treatment before problems become more significant. If something does arise, you will already have access to the best rate for care for 15 visits.
Do you offer free consultations?
Yes, we offer 10 minute phone consultations that are free of charge, please have your questions ready. You can schedule this through out scheduling buttons throughout the site which will take you to our scheduling platform.
What should I expect at my first visit?
Your initial evaluation (60-75 minutes) includes a detailed history, comprehensive physical assessment, and treatment. We'll discuss your goals, review relevant medical history, perform movement and manual assessments, and begin hands-on treatment during the first session.
How long are follow-up visits?
Follow-up sessions are 50 minutes, allowing time for reassessment, hands-on manual therapy, and education or exercise as needed. We also offer shorter follow ups which may be appropriate depending on your needs.
How many visits will I need?
This varies based on your condition, goals, and how your body responds. Many clients see significant improvement in 4-12 visits for acute issues. Chronic conditions may require more sessions. We'll discuss your specific timeline after the initial evaluation.

Still wondering about the financial side? Let’s break down a common comparison.
In-Network, when you see an in-network provider:
-
You pay 100% of treatment costs until you hit your deductible ($1,000-$6,000 individual, $2,000-$12,000 family)
-
After deductible? You still owe co-pays ($40-$70 per visit) OR co-insurance (10-50% of each session)
-
Typical in-network care: 2-3x/week × 6-12 weeks = 12-36 visits total
-
5-15 minutes 1-on-1 PT time per session
-
Rest = "supervised" exercises or PT tech/aide
-
Total out-of-pocket: easily $2,000-$5,000+ when you add it all up
-
Root Holistic Manual Therapy and Performance
Out-of-network direct-pay at Root Holistic means:
-
~1x/week or less, 50-minute sessions (100% 1-on-1 with specialist provider)
-
4-12 total sessions
-
$180 per 50-minute session (package pricing available)
Most Root Holistic clients spend less total than in-network because:
-
Fewer visits needed (we address root causes vs. symptom management)
-
More 1-on-1 time (50 minutes vs 5-15)
-
No surprise copays/deductibles
Bottom line: With Root Holistic, you control your care and typically spend less time and money overall for better results with a specialist who actually listens.
