Frequently Asked Questions

  • No. Virginia allows direct access to physical therapy, meaning you can schedule an evaluation at our clinic without a physician referral. This lets you start care faster and avoid unnecessary delays.

  • Alchemy Sports Rehab is an out-of-network cash-based physical therapy clinic in Roanoke, VA. We do not participate directly with insurance, which allows us to provide longer visits, fully personalized care, and advanced movement assessments. We provide detailed superbills so you can submit for possible out-of-network reimbursement if your plan allows. We also accept HSA/FSA payments.

  • Being a cash based, out of network clinic allows us to put your care first instead of insurance rules. We are able to spend more time with you, create treatment plans based on your goals, and continue care as long as it is helping you improve, not as long as an insurance company allows.

  • Our approach blends advanced movement analysis, strength and performance training, manual therapy when needed, education, and long term injury prevention. We focus on why pain happens, not just treating symptoms. Our goal is to build strong, resilient bodies that stay active for life.

  • Because every person and every goal is different, pricing depends on the type of care you are looking for and the plan we create together. We recommend scheduling a consultation so we can understand your needs and explore the options that make the most sense for you.

  • We do not have dedicated on site parking, but street parking is available on Church Ave. There are also several pay to park lots nearby, including the Market Street Garage and the Church Ave Garage, both within easy walking distance.

  • The number of visits you need depends on your goals, your starting point, and how your body responds to treatment. Some people see meaningful improvements in just a few sessions, while others choose ongoing care for long term progress. We work with you to create a plan that makes sense for you and adjust it as you improve.

  • No, you do not need to be in pain or have an injury to benefit from physical therapy. Many people work with us to improve strength, mobility, and sports performance, or to prevent future injuries before they happen. We can create a treatment plan for anyone!

What People Are Saying

  • "I can’t speak highly enough about the incredible care and expertise that Deanna provided to my son during his several injuries. From the moment we spoke with her, we felt welcomed and confident that we were in the best hands. My son has struggled with ankle, arm, and groin injuries that had been limiting his mobility and causing a lot of frustration. Deanna took the time to thoroughly assess his condition, explaining every step of the process in detail. She created a personalized treatment plan that was tailored specifically to my son's needs. What truly impressed me was not only Deanna’s vast knowledge and skill but also her unwavering patience and encouragement throughout the recovery process. She made sure my son felt comfortable and motivated, even when the healing seemed slow. Thanks to Deanna, my son is now back to his normal activities."

  • "Deanna is great! After struggling with a nagging knee injury that was keeping me from running — something I truly love — I finally decided to seek professional help, and I’m so glad I found her. From the very first session, Deanna took the time to understand not just the symptoms, but the root cause of my pain. Her approach was thorough, personalized, and incredibly encouraging. Each session was thoughtfully planned with a perfect mix of manual therapy, targeted exercises, and practical advice I can apply between visits."

    - Alex B.

  • "I highly recommend Alchemy Sports Performance. Deanna has been a lifesaver for my whole family. For my own neck issues that were causing severe headaches over the last year, my son’s hip problems from a sports injury, and even my daughter’s balance problems - Deanna has been able to address and resolve all of our problems! She is easy to work with for scheduling and communicates quickly and thoroughly with follow up and take home exercises. Very professional and extremely knowledgeable."

    - Tara A.

  • "Highly recommend Deanna and her determination towards the recovery process. She helped me recover and strengthen my shoulder after surgery to perform at my maximum capacity. From stretching to cupping, everything was very beneficial."

    - Brenden S.

  • "Although my visits are for more preventative reasons rather than being due to pain or rehabbing an injury, Deanna has not once made me feel inferior. I appreciate that she takes the time to listen, inform, increase awareness, and set intentions on next steps to feel great in my body and move comfortably! After just one session I noticed an incredible difference in the ROM and integrity of my left shoulder, which is something that had been repeatedly dismissed before. You rock, Deanna!"
