Yes, physiotherapy is reimbursed by the basic insurance (LAMal) when prescribed by a doctor. Some supplementary insurance policies can also cover sessions without a prescription.

When prescribed and reimbursed by insurance, the price of a session is determined by national agreements. In private treatment, the cost depends on the duration and type of care. We always clearly inform you of the prices before the start of the treatment.

A session usually lasts between 30 and 45 minutes. The exact duration depends on your problem, your goals, and the type of treatment. Each session is individualized to optimize your recovery.

The number of sessions varies depending on the pathology, the duration of the pain and your goals (relief, rehabilitation, return to sports). Some acute pain improves in a few sessions, while more complex issues require longer follow-up. A treatment plan is discussed at the outset.

• An in-depth interview to understand your challenges
• A clinical evaluation with mobility and strength tests

The goal is to precisely identify the source of the pain in order to offer effective and lasting treatment. Exercises can be given as early as the first consultation.
