Services
Orthopedic Clinical Specialists
Our board-certified orthopedic clinical specialists diagnose and treat musculoskeletal injuries, fractures, and post-surgical conditions. Using manual therapy, joint mobilizations, and strength training, we restore mobility and reduce pain. Ideal for patients recovering from surgeries like joint replacements or managing chronic orthopedic issues.
Graston Technique
This instrument-assisted therapy breaks down scar tissue and fascial restrictions using stainless steel tools. Effective for treating tendonitis, carpal tunnel, and sports injuries, it improves range of motion and accelerates healing through targeted soft-tissue mobilization.
Pregnancy-Related Pain Relief
Specialized physical therapy addresses sciatica, pelvic pain, and posture changes during pregnancy. Our therapists use strengthening exercises, manual therapy, and ergonomic guidance to alleviate discomfort and prepare the body for childbirth.
Hand Therapy Services
We treat hand, wrist, and elbow injuries including fractures, tendonitis, and carpal tunnel syndrome. Custom orthoses, manual therapy, and therapeutic exercises restore function and reduce pain for improved daily living activities.
Alter-G Treadmill Training
This anti-gravity treadmill allows patients to walk or run at 20-100% of their body weight. Beneficial for post-surgical rehab, injury recovery, and fitness training while minimizing joint impact.
