FAQs

  • At Tribu Physical Therapy, we proudly serve the Greater Tacoma and Puyallup, WA communities as a cash-based, out-of-network practice. This ensures your healthcare is between you and your provider, so that you can receive the best care catered to your needs, one-on-one. No surprise medical bills - simply pay for what you need. All payments are due at the time of service. For these reasons, we do not contract with insurance.
