Services
Physical Therapy
Our physical therapy services focus on restoring mobility and reducing pain through evidence-based techniques. We treat musculoskeletal conditions, post-surgical recovery, and chronic pain using hands-on care and advanced tools like INDIBA and LASER therapy. Patients receive personalized plans to achieve functional goals.
Sport Injuries
Specialized sports injury rehabilitation addresses acute and overuse injuries with performance-focused care. Our therapists use biomechanical analysis and functional screens to return athletes to competition safely. Treatment includes soft tissue therapy, strength training, and injury prevention strategies tailored to athletic demands.
Work Injuries
We offer targeted rehabilitation for workplace injuries, including ergonomic assessments and return-to-work programs. Our approach combines pain management, functional restoration, and coordination with employers to ensure compliance with workers' compensation guidelines and safe reintegration into job duties.
Indiba Treatment
INDIBA therapy uses radiofrequency to enhance tissue repair and reduce inflammation. This non-invasive treatment improves circulation, accelerates healing, and addresses conditions like scars, cellulite, and musculoskeletal pain. Available at our Patrick Square location, it complements manual and exercise-based therapies.
Blood Flow Restriction Training
BFR training safely enhances muscle strength with low-intensity resistance exercises. By restricting venous blood flow, it promotes hypertrophy and recovery for post-surgical patients and athletes. This technique is integrated into rehabilitation programs to improve outcomes without high-load stress.
