Services
Physical Therapy
Our physical therapy services address orthopedic, neurological, and sports-related conditions through individualized treatment plans. Using advanced biomechanical evaluation and manual therapy techniques, we develop customized exercise programs to restore mobility, reduce pain, and prevent future injuries. Patients benefit from direct access certification allowing treatment without physician referral.
Sports Performance Enhancement
This program improves athletic performance through sport-specific training focusing on speed, agility, strength, and balance. Designed for professional and amateur athletes, it includes biomechanical analysis to correct movement limitations and enhance performance while reducing injury risk through targeted conditioning programs.
LSVT BIG Program
Specialized treatment for Parkinson's disease patients using research-based protocols to improve movement amplitude and functional mobility. The program includes one-on-one training sessions and home exercises to enhance walking ability, balance, and trunk rotation while empowering patients to manage their condition.
Custom Foot Orthotics
Therapeutic biomechanical evaluation identifies foot alignment issues requiring customized orthotic solutions. These devices correct gait abnormalities, alleviate pain from structural imbalances, and improve overall lower extremity function through personalized support and pressure redistribution.
TMJ Disorders Treatment
Specialized care for temporomandibular joint dysfunction using manual therapy techniques and exercise programs. Treatment addresses pain, limited jaw movement, and related symptoms through targeted interventions that improve joint function and reduce muscle tension in the craniofacial region.
