The Excel Physical Therapy Professional Bike Fitting will help you eliminate pain and improve cycling performance. Our bike fitting is beneficial to cyclists of all levels. Whether you are a cat 2 racer or a novice rider, a bike fitting will improve your overall experience cycling. For example, small misalignments in seat height and pedal or cleat position can cause knee pain. Moving the seat up or down and the foot forward or backward (through the cleat on the bottom of the shoe) optimizes the power transfer from the leg into the crank arm and decreases painful stress in the knee, resulting in a more enjoyable and efficient ride. 

In the case that you don’t have medical insurance to cover some or all of the cost of a Bike Fitting, we offer cash pay rates. The fee is $250 for the first 90 minute visit and $105.00 for the second 45 minute visit. Your typical Bike Fitting is complete in 2 visits for a total of $355 dollars. However, some Bike Fittings will take less or more visits, based on specific client needs.

 

Your medical insurance will typically cover physical therapy pertaining to a medical diagnosis such as neck pain, low back pain, knee tendonitis, etc. If you are in pain while cycling, then we are usually able to successfully bill your medical insurance for physical therapy services related to altering the fit of your bike and teaching you exercises. We also offer bike fitting services on a prompt pay/cash pay basis when no medical diagnosis is present or if you have no medical insurance.

 

At Excel Physical Therapy, your Bike Fitting is performed by a medical professional. Our specialty trained physical therapists go beyond the typical bike fit that you receive at most bike shops. In addition, we address the root cause of pain and dysfunction that you may be experiencing as the result of your current cycling position, previous muscle and joint injuries, or other movement abnormalities. Often, your medical insurance will cover bike fitting as related to physical therapy services. Our physical therapists have the necessary certifications and training to get you moving towards pain-free cycling.
