Services
Physical Therapy
Our physical therapy program addresses musculoskeletal and neurological conditions through customized treatment plans. Expert clinicians use techniques like ASTYM, Graston, and blood flow restriction training to treat chronic pain, sports injuries, and post-surgical recovery. Each plan combines in-clinic sessions with home exercises to restore mobility and prevent future injuries. Patients receive education on posture correction and ergonomic adjustments to support long-term wellness.
Occupational Therapy
Specialized occupational therapy helps patients regain independence in daily activities after injury or illness. Our therapists focus on upper body rehabilitation, cognitive retraining, and adaptive equipment training. Treatment includes home safety assessments and ergonomic modifications to improve functional performance. We address conditions like carpal tunnel syndrome, stroke effects, and developmental delays using evidence-based interventions that enhance quality of life.
Speech Therapy
Certified speech-language pathologists treat communication disorders and swallowing difficulties in adults. Our program addresses aphasia, dysarthria, and cognitive-linguistic impairments through targeted exercises. For swallowing disorders, we employ VitalStim therapy and dietary modification strategies. Treatment plans incorporate family education to ensure continuity of care and improved social participation for patients recovering from stroke or neurological conditions.
Hand Therapy
Board-certified hand therapists provide specialized care for complex hand and arm conditions. Treatment integrates splinting, manual therapy, and functional retraining for carpal tunnel syndrome, tendon injuries, and post-surgical recovery. We create custom orthoses to support healing while maintaining mobility. Our approach combines biomechanical analysis with activity modification strategies to restore hand function for work and daily tasks.
Neurological Therapy
Advanced neurological rehabilitation addresses movement disorders from stroke, Parkinson's disease, and brain injuries. Therapists use LSVT BIG and vestibular rehabilitation techniques to improve balance, coordination, and motor control. Treatment includes gait training with assistive devices and home safety modifications. Our goal-oriented programs focus on restoring independence through repetitive task practice and adaptive strategies for daily living.
