Pelvic Floor Therapy
Specialized treatment for pelvic floor dysfunctions including urinary incontinence, pelvic pain, and postpartum recovery. Our clinicians provide individualized care using evidence-based techniques for conditions like diastasis recti and gender-affirming care. With advanced training in pelvic health, we help patients restore normal function and improve quality of life through targeted interventions.
Lymphedema Treatment
Certified lymphedema therapy addressing fluid accumulation and swelling management. Our specialists use manual lymphatic drainage and compression techniques to treat post-surgical swelling, particularly for cancer patients. This comprehensive approach helps reduce swelling, prevent complications, and improve mobility through personalized treatment plans.
Oncology Rehabilitation
Post-cancer treatment recovery programs focusing on mobility restoration and symptom management. We address treatment side effects including lymphedema, weakness, and range-of-motion limitations. Our therapists work closely with oncology teams to develop safe, effective rehabilitation plans that support patients throughout their recovery journey.
Orthopedic Physical Therapy
Comprehensive treatment for musculoskeletal injuries and post-surgical recovery. Our approach combines manual therapy, exercise programs, and patient education to restore function after orthopedic injuries. Specialized expertise in running injuries and sports rehabilitation helps patients return to their desired activity levels safely.
Speech Therapy
Specialized services for speech, language, and swallowing disorders. Our speech-language pathologist addresses conditions including dysphagia, vocal cord dysfunction, and neurogenic communication disorders.
