Services
Orthopedic Therapy
We evaluate and treat orthopedic concerns like shoulder pain, back issues, and joint dysfunction using manual therapy, joint mobilization, and individualized treatment plans. Our therapists address pre/post-surgical needs and chronic conditions through movement re-education and functional strengthening. This conservative approach often prevents the need for invasive procedures while restoring natural movement patterns.
Sports Rehabilitation
Specialized programs help athletes recover from sprains, tendonitis, and post-surgical conditions like ACL tears. We combine NEUBIE stimulation with biomechanical analysis to restore performance capabilities while implementing prevention strategies. Return-to-sport protocols ensure safe resumption of competitive activities through progressive strengthening and movement pattern correction tailored to specific sports demands.
Vestibular Rehabilitation
Our trained therapists address vertigo, BPPV, and balance disorders through specialized retraining techniques. The Epley maneuver treats positional vertigo while gait stabilization reduces fall risk. We resolve cervicogenic dizziness through manual techniques and improve spatial awareness by integrating inner ear, visual, and proprioceptive systems for comprehensive balance restoration.
NEUBIE Therapy
This FDA-cleared technology uses direct current to accelerate healing and restore neuromuscular control. Targeted sessions reduce inflammation, enhance recovery from injuries, and improve strength through neuromuscular re-education. The therapy also stimulates the vagus nerve to promote nervous system balance, supporting both physical recovery and overall wellness through advanced electrical stimulation protocols.
Functional Wellness
Customized programs maintain strength and mobility beyond rehabilitation through sport-specific training and functional conditioning. Services include injury prevention strategies, nutritional guidance, and trigger point therapy to support long-term wellness. Our credit-based system offers flexible access to personal training, group classes, and specialized wellness sessions tailored to individual fitness goals.
