Services
Aquatic Therapy
Our HydroWorx Therapy Pool features an underwater treadmill that reduces body weight impact by 20-100%, enabling low-impact rehabilitation. This technology promotes early range of motion, cardiovascular stamina, and muscle strengthening while providing psychological benefits through warm-water therapy. Patients with chronic pain, fibromyalgia, or post-surgical needs receive customized underwater programs to accelerate healing and improve mobility.
Sports Medicine
We specialize in sports injury diagnosis, treatment, and prevention for athletes at all performance levels. Our comprehensive approach includes injury recovery protocols, reconditioning programs, and performance enhancement strategies. Certified specialists work with patients to prevent re-injury and facilitate safe return to sports through evidence-based rehabilitation techniques tailored to specific athletic demands.
Dry Needling
Certified therapists use dry needling to target myofascial trigger points causing chronic pain in neck, back, and shoulder regions. This technique normalizes chemical imbalances in painful areas, reducing muscle tension and improving range of motion. Unlike acupuncture, this therapy focuses specifically on musculoskeletal pain relief through precise needle insertion into affected tissue.
Vestibular Therapy
Our vestibular rehabilitation program addresses dizziness, vertigo, and balance disorders caused by inner ear dysfunction. Through specialized exercises and gait training, we help patients reduce fall risks and improve spatial orientation. This therapy benefits individuals experiencing chronic balance issues or post-concussion symptoms affecting equilibrium.
Treating Back Pain
We offer targeted manual therapy and evidence-based interventions for chronic back and neck pain management. Our approach combines spinal mobilization techniques with patient education to address both symptoms and underlying causes. Customized treatment plans incorporate therapeutic exercises and posture correction strategies to provide long-term relief from degenerative conditions and repetitive strain injuries.
