Services
Physical Therapy
Our physical therapy services address musculoskeletal and neurological conditions through customized treatment plans. We combine manual therapy techniques with therapeutic exercises to restore mobility, reduce pain, and improve functional capacity. Our therapists utilize evidence-based approaches like the McKenzie Method and myofascial release to treat acute injuries and chronic conditions.
Occupational Therapy
Specialized occupational therapy services focus on restoring daily living skills and workplace functionality. Our certified therapists address upper extremity injuries, cognitive impairments, and ergonomic challenges through targeted interventions. Treatment includes activity analysis, adaptive equipment training, and environmental modifications to enhance independence and quality of life.
Craniosacral Therapy
This gentle manual therapy addresses central nervous system dysfunction through subtle manipulations of cranial bones and sacrum. Our trained therapists use light touch techniques to release restrictions in the craniosacral system, improving cerebrospinal fluid flow and alleviating symptoms of migraines, TMJ disorders, and concussion recovery.
Myofascial Release
Targeted myofascial release techniques address connective tissue restrictions causing chronic pain and limited mobility. Our therapists employ sustained pressure and stretching to eliminate fascial adhesions, improve circulation, and restore normal tissue elasticity through both direct and indirect release methods.
Vestibular Rehab
Specialized vestibular rehabilitation programs treat dizziness, vertigo, and balance disorders through customized exercise protocols. Our certified therapists implement canalith repositioning maneuvers, gaze stabilization drills, and balance training to improve vestibular function and reduce fall risk in patients with inner ear dysfunction.
