Why Out-of-Network Pelvic Floor Physical Therapy Is Worth It

Updated: May 4


If you’ve ever used your insurance for physical therapy, you may have found yourself surprised by what wasn’t covered - or frustrated by how rushed or impersonal the sessions felt. The truth is, not all care is created equal. And when it comes to something as personal and complex as pelvic floor therapy, quality matters more than ever.


That’s why more patients are choosing out-of-network providers - and loving the results.


Let’s break down why going out-of-network can lead to better outcomes, fewer frustrations, and a more empowered healing experience.


The Hidden Costs of In-Network Physical Therapy

At first glance, using insurance for PT seems like the obvious choice. After all, you're paying monthly premiums - shouldn’t it save you money?

Here’s the catch: it doesn’t always work that way.


Let’s look at a typical scenario:


An Example of In-Network PT Billing

Let’s say you go to an in-network physical therapist:

  • Your co-pay is $50–75 per visit.

  • You’re scheduled 2–3 times per week.

  • Your insurance only covers 15–30 minutes with the therapist.

  • You’re often sharing your appointment time with other patients.

  • After 6–8 weeks, you may still be dealing with the same symptoms.


Now compare that to the real cost:

  • $75 per visit × 2 visits/week = $150/week

  • $150 × 6 weeks = $900

  • You may still need more sessions.

  • And on top of that? You might receive a surprise bill from your insurance due to deductible limits or billing errors.


In total, you could be spending nearly $1,000 or more - without ever receiving truly personalized care.


Why Out-of-Network Providers (Like Anatomie Pelvic Health) Offer Higher Value

Here’s what happens when you choose an out-of-network pelvic floor specialist like Anatomie Pelvic Health:

1-on-1, 60-minute sessions with a doctorate-level therapist - every single time

✅ A comprehensive, whole-body approach, not just a focus on symptoms

✅ No assistants, techs, or shuffled hand-offs - just undivided expert care

Individualized plans tailored to your goals, lifestyle, and pelvic health history

✅ Fewer visits overall (typically 1x/week or biweekly) because treatment is more effective

💡 Most patients need fewer sessions and see results faster, making it more cost-effective long-term.

Pelvic Floor Therapy Deserves Specialized Attention

Pelvic floor issues are complex. They can involve:

  • Urinary urgency, frequency, or leakage

  • Constipation or bowel dysfunction

  • Pain with intercourse

  • Core weakness and instability

  • Postpartum recovery

  • Pregnancy-related pelvic pain

These challenges are often under-addressed in insurance-based clinics because:

  • Sessions are rushed

  • Therapists are managing multiple patients

  • Internal work (which is often essential) may not be allowed or reimbursed

  • You’re limited to what insurance approves, not what you truly need

At Anatomie Pelvic Health, you get full access to expert care, without the red tape. We treat the whole person - not just what insurance codes permit.


Fewer Visits, More Results

Let’s break this down:

~$200 per visit

2–3x per week

1x per week or less

Shared attention

Hear from Patients Like You

“I went to PT in-network for months with little change. After 3 sessions at Anatomie Pelvic Health, I finally understood what was going on and felt real progress. I wish I’d started here!”– A.
“The one-on-one care with Dr. Letycia was worth every penny. I never felt rushed. Every session was thoughtful, educational, and focused on MY body.”– L.

You Deserve Better Than the Bare Minimum

Insurance was designed for sick care, not high-quality wellness. But your pelvic health deserves more than a “good enough” solution.

You deserve:

  • A therapist who knows your name, history, and goals

  • An environment where you feel safe and heard

  • A care plan that adapts as your body changes

  • An investment in long-term wellness - not short-term patches
