Physical Therapy
Our physical therapy services focus on treating musculoskeletal pain and dysfunction through hands-on techniques. We specialize in sports injuries, post-surgical rehabilitation, and chronic pain management using evidence-based approaches. Patients receive individualized treatment plans that combine manual therapy, therapeutic exercises, and advanced modalities like the NEUBIE device for optimal recovery.
Vestibular Rehabilitation
This specialized therapy addresses balance disorders and dizziness caused by inner ear dysfunction. Our certified therapists use targeted exercises to improve vestibular system function, reducing symptoms like vertigo and instability. Treatment includes customized home exercise programs and functional training to restore normal balance and prevent falls.
Neubie Treatment
The NEUBIE NeuFit System uses direct current stimulation to re-educate muscles and accelerate recovery. This technology helps reduce pain, increase range of motion, and improve neuromuscular function. Our therapists integrate NEUBIE sessions with traditional physical therapy techniques to enhance outcomes for both injury rehabilitation and athletic performance training.
Post-Concussion Therapy
Our 5-step post-concussion protocol addresses symptoms like headaches, dizziness, and balance issues following traumatic brain injuries. Treatment combines vestibular therapy, cervical spine mobilization, and progressive exertion training to safely restore normal function. We work closely with patients to develop personalized recovery plans that support complete neurological healing.
Sports Performance Training
This program combines physical therapy with performance enhancement training for athletes of all levels. We focus on injury prevention, strength development, and functional movement patterns using sport-specific drills. Our NEUBIE-assisted training improves muscle pliability and neuromuscular efficiency to boost athletic performance while reducing re-injury risk.
