Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about getting started with Par Performance PT in Cornelius.
No. North Carolina allows direct access to physical therapy, so you can schedule a discovery call and get started without seeing a physician first. If you'd like to pursue out-of-network reimbursement through your insurance provider, we can provide a superbill to support that process after your evaluation.
Cash-based means you pay directly for your care rather than going through insurance. This lets Dr. Malutan spend a full session one-on-one with you every visit. No aides, no handoffs, no rushed appointments driven by billing codes. We accept HSA and FSA payments, and we provide superbills so you can seek reimbursement from your insurance provider on your own terms.
Not necessarily. Many golfers continue to play during their care, and Dr. Malutan will work with your schedule and your game to find the right approach. In some cases, modifying activity temporarily helps things move faster, but the goal is always to get you back to full rounds as quickly and durably as possible.
Dr. Malutan holds a Titleist Performance Institute (TPI) Medical Level 2 certification alongside his DPT and CSCS credentials. That means your assessment and treatment are built around how your body moves in the golf swing, not just a generic injury protocol. You'll be seen one-on-one at every visit, and your care plan will reflect the specific demands of your game.
Both. Par Performance PT works with golfers who are dealing with pain or injury and want to get back on the course, and with golfers who are healthy but want to move better, hit farther, and reduce their risk of injury down the road. If you're a golfer and you want your body to work better for your game, there's a place for you here.
