Services
Physical Therapy
Our physical therapy services focus on restoring mobility, reducing pain, and improving physical function through personalized treatment plans. Licensed therapists use manual techniques, therapeutic exercises, and advanced modalities to address orthopedic, neurological, and post-surgical conditions. Each 60-minute session emphasizes patient education and home exercise programs to ensure long-term recovery and prevent future injuries.
Aquatic Therapy
Aquatic therapy utilizes a warm water pool to provide low-impact rehabilitation for patients with joint pain, arthritis, or post-surgical conditions. The buoyancy reduces stress on the body while allowing resistance training to improve strength and mobility. This service is exclusively available at our Sandpoint location with specialized supervision from certified therapists.
Vestibular Rehabilitation
Specialized treatment for dizziness, vertigo, and balance disorders caused by inner ear dysfunction. Our therapists use video infrared goggles, vestibular exercises, and BalanceWear technology to improve stability and reduce fall risks. This service addresses conditions like BPPV, concussion-related dizziness, and neurological balance impairments.
Pelvic Floor Therapy
Pelvic floor therapy addresses urinary incontinence, pelvic pain, and postpartum recovery through manual techniques and targeted exercises. Therapists with specialized certifications in pelvic rehabilitation provide individualized care for both men and women, focusing on restoring normal function and improving quality of life for patients with pelvic floor dysfunction.
Concussion Management
Our concussion management program combines vestibular rehabilitation, cognitive rest strategies, and gradual return-to-activity protocols. Certified therapists use ImPACT testing and virtual reality tools to assess and treat post-concussion symptoms, ensuring safe recovery for athletes and individuals with traumatic brain injuries.
