Default Need Advice on Physical Therapy

Hi all,
I need advice for my 13 year old son Matthew with CRPS in his left foot. He is transitioning from pool to gym for physical therapy. He can walk short distances now (20 feet or so) but usually needs to sit and recover for a while afterwards. He is scheduled for a physical therapy session later today (in the gym) but I'm kind of worried about if he's really ready for a 30-45 minute session. They want to push him to get the CRPS in remission, but I'm worried about causing a flare. How do you gage what you're ready for, and what is too much? The therapy place has to show a certain amount of progress in order for the insurance to continue to pay for therapy sessions.

Thanks for any advice you can give.
