We provide increased privacy and decreased distractions, creating an environment that is comfortable, focused, and optimal for successful recovery. 2020 created an additional advantage for inpidual rooms: Distance and increased comfort for patients, as all can stay isolated while receiving Physical Therapy.

We combine manual therapy with a precise exercise program. Manual therapy mobilizes soft tissue and joints to improve posture, decrease pain, or increase motion-and exercise corrects the problem so it doesn't recur.
