Services
Neck and Back Pain
Our specialized treatment for neck and back pain combines comprehensive evaluation with manual therapy techniques. We address conditions like herniated discs, scoliosis, and chronic pain through personalized exercise programs and dry needling. Patients receive education on proper body mechanics to prevent future injuries while achieving measurable improvements in mobility and pain reduction.
Sports Rehabilitation
Designed for athletes recovering from injuries, this service integrates movement analysis and strength training. We treat sprains, tendonitis, and post-surgical conditions using techniques that enhance athletic performance while reducing reinjury risks. Our protocols emphasize functional movement patterns to restore pre-injury capabilities safely and efficiently.
Dry Needling
This targeted therapy uses fine needles to deactivate muscle trigger points causing pain and restricted movement. We employ this technique to alleviate myofascial pain syndromes and improve range of motion. Patients experience rapid symptom relief through this evidence-based approach that complements traditional physical therapy interventions.
Vestibular Therapy
Specialized treatment for inner ear disorders addresses vertigo, dizziness, and balance issues. Our therapists implement customized exercise programs to improve gaze stability and reduce motion sensitivity. This evidence-based approach effectively treats conditions like BPPV and vestibular neuritis through structured neuromuscular retraining.
Concussion Care
Our concussion management program combines vestibular rehabilitation with cognitive rest strategies. We address symptoms like headaches, dizziness, and balance issues through progressive exertion protocols. The treatment focuses on restoring neurological function while providing patients with activity modification guidance for safe recovery.
