REHABILITATION PROGRAMS

Orthopedics and Sports
Our Therapist is highly trained in the care not only of a variety of joints, but as well in a variety of approaches. Weparticularly utilize manual therapy, a “hands-on” approach, whether it’s a shoulder, knee, spinal or other problem area.

Neurologic Rehabilitation
Recovery from a stroke or other nerve injury requires a dedicated Patient/Therapist Team. Our one-on one approach encourages as much as possible the return of normal function, including walking and use of the arms and hands.

Wound Care
We have extensive experience in caring for wounds, such as burns, diabetic ulcers, non-healing surgical wounds, or traumatic wounds.

Headache
If you suffer from frequent headaches, even “migraines”, ask your Doctor for a Physical Therapy evaluation. It is quite astounding how many Migraine headaches respond to gentle stretching and mobilization of the upper neck vertebra.

Occupational Therapy
Our Occupational Therapist is a Certified Hand Specialist, dealing with all problems of hand (and elbow) function. Rehabilitation maximizes the flexibility, strength and function of the hand.
