Services
Manual Therapy
Manual therapy involves skilled hand techniques to improve joint mobility and reduce muscle pain. Our licensed therapists use mobilization, manipulation, and soft tissue work for conditions like tennis elbow, frozen shoulder, and post-surgical stiffness. This approach enhances recovery when combined with therapeutic exercises and patient education about home care routines.
Sports Injury Recovery
Specialized rehabilitation for sports-related injuries combines ACL prevention, rotator cuff repair, and performance training. Our therapists work with athletes at all levels, using active release techniques and strength conditioning to restore function. Treatment plans integrate biomechanical analysis and sport-specific training to prevent future injuries and optimize athletic performance.
Orthopedic Rehabilitation
Post-surgical and injury recovery programs address joint replacements, fractures, and soft tissue injuries. We treat conditions like bursitis, arthritis, and tendonitis using therapeutic exercise, gait training, and modalities to reduce inflammation. Our approach emphasizes restoring mobility while educating patients about proper body mechanics for long-term joint health.
Neuromuscular Therapy
This specialized massage technique targets myofascial trigger points causing referred pain. Effective for headaches, neck pain, and sciatica, our therapists use sustained pressure to release muscle knots and improve circulation. Treatment often includes posture correction education and stretching routines to maintain pain relief between sessions.
Spinal Therapy
Comprehensive care for spinal conditions includes disc herniation treatment, sciatica management, and posture correction. Our therapists use spinal decompression, traction, and core strengthening exercises to alleviate nerve compression. Treatment plans address both acute injuries and chronic conditions like spinal stenosis through conservative, non-invasive approaches.
