Why Choose Cash-Based Physical Therapy in El Paso?

Most physical therapy clinics in El Paso bill through insurance, which means shorter visits, shared attention, and treatment plans dictated by what your plan covers — not what you actually need. Cash-based physical therapy removes those barriers entirely. Under Texas direct access law, you can see a licensed physical therapist without a physician referral — and the American Physical Therapy Association recognizes this model as the gold standard for patient-centered care.

01

One-on-One Physical Therapy Sessions

At most insurance-based clinics in El Paso, therapists juggle 2–3 patients simultaneously while aides handle exercises. Here, every minute of your session is spent directly with Dr. Cisneros — hands-on, individualized, and focused entirely on your recovery. This is the standard of care that physical therapy was designed to be.

02

Direct Access — No Referral Needed

Texas has some of the broadest direct access laws in the country. You do not need a physician referral, no insurance pre-authorization, and no waiting. Call today, start physical therapy this week. Whether you are dealing with back pain, a sports injury, or post-surgical recovery — we can see you immediately.

03

Results-Driven Rehabilitation Plans

Insurance companies typically limit physical therapy to a set number of visits regardless of your progress. Cash-based care means your treatment plan is built around your recovery goals — whether that takes 4 visits or 14. We treat until you are better, not until your benefits expire. Your health is not a line item.

What Our Patients Say

Real results from real El Paso patients who chose one-on-one, cash-based physical therapy.

"After my ACL surgery, I went to a regular PT clinic first. I was one of three patients being seen at the same time and barely got any hands-on attention. Switching to Dr. Cisneros was a game changer. Every session was just me and him, and I was back on the soccer field in half the time my surgeon predicted."

— M.R., ACL Reconstruction Recovery

"I had been dealing with chronic lower back pain for over two years. Multiple doctors, injections, even talked about surgery. Dr. Cisneros found the root cause in my first visit and within 6 weeks of manual therapy, I was pain-free. Worth every penny of cash-based care."

— J.T., Chronic Low Back Pain

"As a runner, I could not afford to be sidelined long with my IT band issue. The one-on-one sessions and targeted manual therapy got me back to training in 3 weeks. Plus being inside Solas meant I could also get recovery IVs. Best PT experience I have ever had in El Paso."

— S.L., Sports Injury Recovery

Physical Therapy FAQ

Cash-based physical therapy means you pay directly for your care without going through insurance. This allows for longer sessions, more one-on-one time with your therapist, and treatment plans designed around your goals — not insurance limitations.

No. Texas allows direct access to physical therapy. You can schedule an evaluation with Dr. Cisneros without a physician referral, saving you time and an extra office visit.

Session rates vary based on the type and duration of treatment. Contact us for current pricing. Most patients find that the value of dedicated one-on-one expert care exceeds what they received at insurance-based clinics.

We are a cash-based practice and do not bill insurance directly. However, we can provide a superbill that you may submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement.

Unlike insurance-based clinics where therapists juggle 2-3 patients at once, every session here is one-on-one with Dr. Cisneros for the full duration. No aides, no double-booking, no rushed 15-minute treatments.

Initial evaluations are typically 60 minutes. Follow-up treatments range from 45-60 minutes depending on your needs. Every session is fully dedicated to you.
