What to Expect at Bean Sports Medicine

No. In Connecticut, you can begin physical therapy or chiropractic care without a physician referral. This is known as direct access. At Bean Sports Medicine in Stamford, CT, you can schedule your initial evaluation directly and begin care right away.

Your first visit includes a comprehensive movement assessment, discussion of your goals, and hands-on treatment. We don’t just evaluate — we begin treatment the same day.

You’ll leave your first session with:

• A clear diagnosis or working plan

• Initial treatment

• Action steps to begin improving immediately

Initial evaluations typically last 60 minutes. Follow-up visits are usually 30–60 minutes depending on your plan of care and treatment needs.

We prioritize one-on-one, personalized care during every visit.

The number of visits depends on your goals, condition, and how long the issue has been present. Some patients need short-term care for a specific injury, while others benefit from longer-term performance or mobility support.

After your evaluation, we’ll provide a clear recommendation and timeline so you know exactly what to expect.
