Services
Orthopedic Rehabilitation
Specialized treatment for musculoskeletal injuries addresses pain, swelling, and mobility limitations. Our therapists employ manual techniques, therapeutic exercises, and modalities to restore function after fractures, sprains, or surgeries. Patients benefit from individualized programs that improve strength, gait, and joint stability while preventing future injuries.
Vestibular Rehabilitation
Customized programs target vertigo and dizziness through specific exercises and manual techniques. Therapists address inner ear dysfunction using evidence-based protocols to improve balance and reduce fall risk. Treatment includes gaze stabilization exercises and positional maneuvers tailored to each patient's vestibular diagnosis.
Dry Needling
Certified therapists insert fine needles into myofascial trigger points to relieve muscle tension and promote healing. This technique effectively treats chronic pain conditions by targeting knotted muscles and stimulating natural recovery processes. Sessions combine needling with manual therapy for comprehensive pain management.
Temporomandibular Disorders
Comprehensive care addresses TMJ dysfunction through manual manipulation and neuromuscular re-education. Treatment resolves clicking, locking, and pain through targeted exercises and posture correction. Patients receive education on jaw mechanics and receive modalities to reduce inflammation and muscle tension.
Spinal Rehabilitation
Specialized programs improve spinal mobility and reduce pain through targeted exercises and manual techniques. Therapists address posture issues and teach proper movement patterns to prevent re-injury. Treatment focuses on strengthening core muscles and restoring natural spinal alignment for long-term relief.
