Forward Sports Care is a cash-based private physical therapy practice based in Madison, WI. FSC was founded by Ted German, DPT, to provide comprehensive personalized PT for endurance athletes. Being cash-based gives us the flexibility, freedom, and time to provide care above and beyond what you will typically experience at an insurance-driven physical therapy appointment.
