CardioFlex Therapy Joins Oscar HealthCare

By: Terry Abrams 

CardioFlex Therapy is excited to announce our joining of Oscar HealthCare insurance as of April 27th, 2021. As an In-Network provider of Physical Therapy and Occupational Therapy, CardioFlex now accepts all plans from Oscar Health including Marketplace, Medicare and Medicaid insurance coverage. CardioFlex Therapy performs Physical Therapy and Occupational Therapy, located in Davie, FL and in the homes of our patients.

Founded in 2012, Oscar provides consumers with access to the affordable, high-quality health care they deserve. They began by offering health plans in the Individual market because Oscar believed it was where their member-first approach would set them apart. After only seven years of selling health insurance in the Individual market, their strategy has proved out.

Oscar is now the third largest for-profit national insurer in the Individual market in the United States based on membership, and has expanded to Small Group in 2017 and Medicare Advantage in 2020. As of 2022, they have at least one health plan in 607 counties across 22 states and expect to expand in the years ahead both geographically and with great respect to insurance markets.

Oscar is tackling health care’s biggest problems by providing more for Americans with access to the affordable, high-quality health care they deserve. It starts with reorienting consumers’ expectations of their insurer, and earning something that is all too rare in the health insurance industry: member trust.

Whether you need Outpatient or Home Physical Therapy or Occupational Therapy, please call CardioFlex Therapy for PT & OT information on how we can best help you at our Outpatient Clinic in Davie at 954-693-9090.

Why Maintaining Balance Is Critical

 By: Terry Abrams 

Balance is not commonly viewed as an important aspect of physical fitness but it can prove essential in preventing injury. We normally don’t think about our balance until we slip or fall and get injured because of instability. Just like anything else such as muscle and bone strength our balance can deteriorate the older we get. Balance is one of those “use-it-or-lose-it” situations, it must be trained and strengthened over time. Poor balance can lead to instability and put us at risk to slip or fall causing serious injuries such as a broken hip, which in turn, can lead to prolonged injury and a downward spiral into dependence and ill health. The good news is that it’s never too late to start, simple exercises that don’t require a lot of equipment can be utilized to help improve balance.

CardioFlex Therapy is changing Physical Therapy in Davie with Physical and Occupational Therapy at our facility or in the comfort of your home.

CardioFlex is open Monday to Friday, from 8 am to 7 pm, and specializes in Orthopedics, Sports Injury, Neurological Conditions, and other Specialized Programs like TMJ treatment, knee rehabilitation, herniated disk treatments.

Why Physical Therapy First?

 By: Terry Abrams 



Are you or a family member dealing with pain and aren’t quite sure who you should go see? A physical therapist might not be the first person you think of, but hopefully, after reading this, it’ll help you understand how we can help.

What does a physical therapist do and how can they help with an injury?

A physical therapist can help you move better. Whether you are having trouble getting out of bed, picking up your kids, having difficulty reaching into the cupboards, or any other daily tasks that you’re having trouble doing, a PT can help. 

. We spend one on one time with you to ensure that we tailor to your every need. We also come up with a comprehensive plan to help you get back to what YOU want to do, which is the whole point right? A physical therapist can help facilitate your recovery, with us giving you the tools to be successful. We want to empower you to be able to do things needed to keep you healthy for the long run.

Your physical therapist is focused on getting you back to the things you enjoy

If you choose PT first, you’ll feel better faster, and could potentially save money in the process! Who doesn’t love to save money? In most states, you can see a physical therapist first without needing to see anyone prior. Most people don’t know that, so we’re trying to make sure people understand they have a choice in where they want to go to get better.

I like to compare physical therapy to when something goes wrong with your car. If you need to invest in parts or work done to keep your car running properly, why wouldn’t you do the same thing with regards to your health?

There are many places you can go for an injury, hopefully, you know now that you can choose physical therapy first.
