The physical therapists were professional, courteous, and treated me with respect. They explained the exercises and encouraged me throughout my treatment. The staff was friendly, and the facility was clean and well organized.

Everyone at PRN has been so supportive to me and helped me through the whole process of recovery and strengthening me to where I am moving and feeling better. Cody has given me inspiration to continue exercising on my own. Cody and his staff have always treated me like I am a part of their Family and not just a patient. PRN El Centro is “THE BEST IN THE WEST . BRAVO ZULU to all ya’ll. V/R, Byron Hunt and Blessings to you.

Finding a physical therapy clinic that actually feels personal is rare — and this place gets it right. The entire staff is skilled, professional, and genuinely warm. From the moment you walk in, you can tell this isn’t a conveyor belt operation where you’re just the next name on a clipboard. The therapy itself feels tailored to you — your condition, your pace, your goals. That kind of individualized attention makes a real difference, not just physically but mentally. You leave each session feeling like progress was actually made. What sets this team apart is the culture they’ve built. Almost everyone there is smiling, and it doesn’t feel forced — it feels like they genuinely love what they do. That energy is contagious, and it makes the whole experience as comfortable as it can be. If you need physical therapy, you’ll be in good hands here.

Every staff member, I worked with over the course of several weeks to improve the muscles around my knees was very knowledgeable, friendly, and professional. I would definitely highly recommend the El Centro PRN based on the time I’ve spent here here for physical therapy.

Commonly Asked Questions & What to Expect During Your PT Treatment

Do I need to see a doctor first?

Thanks to direct access, we can see any patient without a referral from a doctor for an initial evaluation. If our therapists believe that physical therapy is a good option for your needs, we can work with you and your physician to obtain a prescription for continued care. If your diagnosis requires additional expertise, we can also refer you to a specialist to handle your care.

What do I need to bring to my first visit?

For your first visit, be sure to bring the following items:

  • Prescription for physical therapy from your referring physician (if applicable)
  • Government issued photo ID (such as a driver’s license)
  • Insurance card(s)
  • Patient forms, which can be downloaded from this site in PDF format. Print and fill out the forms completely and bring them during your first visit.
  • Patients who are minors (under 18 years of age) must be accompanied by a parent or guardian for their first visit.

What should I wear to physical therapy?

Please wear or bring comfortable athletic/workout clothing to change into. This includes shorts or sweatpants, a t-shirt and sneakers. Your attire should also allow easy access to your injured area for treatment by your physical therapist.

What can I expect during my first visit?

During your first visit, your therapist will perform a thorough examination, in which he or she will review your physician’s recommendations, examine the problem area, ask questions about your injury or pain, develop an effective treatment plan for rehabilitation, discuss their findings with you and answer any questions you may have. Your treatment plan may include hands-on, manual therapy, a customized exercise program, stretching and physical agents such as heat, ice, ultrasound and electrical stimulation. Your physical therapist may also recommend a home program to further assist in your treatment.

How long will my appointment take?

Your first appointment will typically last from 45 minutes to an hour and a half, depending on your injury. Following appointments usually last between 30 minutes and an hour, depending on the treatment. Please arrive 15 minutes prior to the start of your appointment for check-in and paperwork. You can also download our patient forms, which can be filled out beforehand and brought with to your appointment.

How often will I need to come?

The frequency of your treatment will depend on your physician’s prescription and the plan of care developed by your physical therapist. Most patients require treatment two to three times per week. The duration of treatment will depend on your injury and personal progress. Your physical therapist will discuss this with you following your initial exam and subsequently as you progress.

What if I need to cancel an appointment?

If you are unable to attend an appointment, we require at least 24 hours' notice. However, we do understand than an occasional emergency or illness may arise, in which case you may have to cancel your appointment closer to your scheduled time.

Do you accept insurances? Will insurance cover my therapy?

We accept most major insurances including Medicare, Tricare and workers’ compensation plans. Before your initial visit, we will verify in and out of network benefits with your insurance company. The cost of therapy is determined by the benefits of your insurance plan, including the deductible and co-pay, or patient percentage. We are happy to check with your insurance company to determine the terms of your coverage. Payment for patient responsibility is due at the time of service.
