Services
Physical Therapy
Our physical therapy services address orthopedic injuries, post-operative recovery, and chronic conditions using evidence-based techniques. We focus on manual therapy, therapeutic exercises, and modalities like electrical stimulation to restore mobility and reduce pain. Patients receive personalized treatment plans targeting specific goals such as improved strength, flexibility, and functional independence.
Sports Rehab
Sports rehabilitation combines manual therapy and functional exercises to heal trauma or overuse injuries while enhancing athletic performance. We address strength deficits, mobility restrictions, and movement imbalances to prevent re-injury. Programs are tailored to sport-specific demands, ensuring safe return-to-play progressions for athletes at all levels.
Running Analysis
This service evaluates running biomechanics through video gait analysis and biomechanical assessments. We identify form faults, muscle imbalances, and movement compensations to reduce injury risk and improve efficiency. Custom plans include strength training, gait retraining, and mobility drills to enhance performance and prevent future injuries.
Cupping Therapy
Cupping therapy uses silicone cups to create suction, targeting muscular tension, inflammation, and circulatory stagnation. This technique promotes toxin removal, accelerates tissue healing, and alleviates pain by decompressing soft tissues. Sessions are customized to address conditions like back pain, migraines, and sports-related muscle strain.
Vestibular Therapy
Vestibular therapy treats dizziness, vertigo, and balance disorders through specialized exercises and manual techniques. We focus on retraining the vestibular system to improve gaze stability, reduce dizziness episodes, and enhance overall balance. Treatment plans incorporate habituation exercises and positional maneuvers for long-term symptom relief.
