Services
Physical Therapy
Our physical therapy services address musculoskeletal conditions through customized treatment plans. We treat sports injuries, post-surgical recovery, and chronic pain using evidence-based techniques. Patients benefit from one-on-one sessions with licensed therapists focused on restoring mobility and reducing discomfort.
Aquatic Therapy
Aquatic therapy utilizes our SwimEx Therapy Pool for low-impact rehabilitation. The water's buoyancy reduces stress on joints while allowing resistance training. This service is ideal for arthritis patients, post-injury recovery, and individuals with limited weight-bearing capacity.
Manual Techniques
Certified therapists employ manual techniques including joint mobilization and soft tissue manipulation. These methods improve range of motion, decrease pain, and accelerate healing for conditions like rotator cuff injuries and spinal dysfunctions. Three therapists hold specialized manual therapy certifications.
Functional Capacity Evaluation
We conduct functional capacity evaluations to assess work readiness after injury. This service determines physical capabilities for job-specific tasks, aiding in workers' compensation cases and return-to-work planning. Evaluations follow standardized protocols for accurate, objective results.
Pre-Post Surgical Rehab
Our pre- and post-operative rehabilitation programs prepare patients for surgery and optimize recovery afterward. Services include joint replacement rehab, strength training, and mobility restoration. Treatment plans coordinate with surgeons to ensure optimal outcomes for procedures like knee and hip replacements.
