WHAT TO EXPECT

Answers Before Your First Visit

Learn more about what to expect at Ascent Health & Performance, including care options, insurance questions, and how we help active Alaskans stay strong for every adventure.

Which service is right for me?
+

You don't need to have everything figured out before booking. If you're dealing with pain or limited movement, chiropractic or physical therapy may be a good fit. If you're recovering, trying to improve performance, or looking to build strength and resilience, performance services may make more sense. If you're unsure, we'll help point you in the right direction.

Do I need a referral?
+

Most patients do not need a referral to begin care. Certain insurance plans or situations may require one, and our team can help clarify requirements before your first visit.

Do you accept insurance?
+

Chiropractic and physical therapy services may be eligible for insurance coverage depending on your plan. Performance services, personal training, classes, and shockwave therapy are generally offered as direct-pay services with transparent pricing.

What should I expect at my first visit?
+

Your first visit typically includes discussing your goals and history, movement assessment, and recommendations based on your findings. Depending on your visit type, treatment may also begin during the first appointment.

What should I wear?
+

Wear comfortable clothing you can move in. Athletic clothing is ideal when possible, especially if movement assessment or exercise may be involved

How long are appointments?
+

Appointment length varies depending on the service. Initial visits are generally longer to allow time for evaluation and planning, while follow-up visits are typically shorter and more focused.

Do I need imaging before starting care?
+

Not usually. Imaging is not necessary for many common musculoskeletal issues. If additional imaging or referral is appropriate based on your examination and presentation, we'll discuss recommendations with you.

Can I start with the clinic and transition into training or performance services?
+

"Absolutely. One of the goals at Ascent Health & Performance is helping people move from pain and rehabilitation toward long-term strength, resilience, and performance."
