Services
Orthopedic Therapy
Our orthopedic therapy addresses musculoskeletal injuries and post-surgical recovery through hands-on manual therapy and customized exercise programs. We treat conditions ranging from rotator cuff repairs to knee replacements, focusing on restoring mobility and strength. Patients receive individualized care combining joint mobilizations, posture correction, and functional training to return to daily activities.
Post Surgical Therapy
We specialize in pre- and post-operative care for joint replacements and orthopedic procedures. Our therapists develop progressive treatment plans that reduce swelling, restore range of motion, and rebuild strength. Using evidence-based protocols, we guide patients through each recovery phase from initial healing to full functional restoration and return to work or sports activities.
Occupational Therapy
Our occupational therapy helps patients regain independence in daily activities after injury or illness. Treatment focuses on improving fine motor skills, coordination, and adaptive techniques for self-care tasks. We address work-related injuries and neurological conditions through customized interventions that enhance patients' ability to perform essential life functions.
Neurological Rehabilitation
We provide specialized care for neurological conditions like stroke, Parkinson's disease, and balance disorders. Our approach combines coordination exercises, gait training, and balance therapy to improve mobility and reduce fall risks. Treatment plans are tailored to each patient's specific neurological challenges and recovery goals.
Lymphedema Therapy
Our certified lymphedema specialists use the Leduc Method for manual lymphatic drainage and compression bandaging. This comprehensive approach reduces swelling caused by lymphatic system insufficiency, particularly for post-cancer treatment patients. Treatment includes skin care education and self-management techniques to control chronic symptoms.
