Services
Physical Therapy
Our physical therapy services address orthopedic, sports, and workplace injuries through customized treatment plans. Using techniques like dry needling and IASTM, we focus on restoring mobility, reducing pain, and improving functional capacity. Each program adapts to individual recovery goals and lifestyle needs.
Dry Needling
Dry needling targets muscle tension and trigger points to alleviate pain from conditions like neck pain, sciatica, and headaches. This technique promotes soft tissue healing by inserting fine needles into affected areas, often providing rapid relief for acute or chronic musculoskeletal issues.
Functional Capacity Evaluation
Functional capacity evaluations assess physical abilities for job placement or return-to-work scenarios. These tests measure strength, flexibility, and endurance to determine an individual's readiness for specific job demands while ensuring ADA compliance.
Job Screens
Job screens evaluate candidates' physical capabilities for specific roles, identifying pre-existing conditions and preventing workplace injuries. Our WorkSaver system ensures compliance with EEOC standards while reducing employer liability through objective assessments.
Work Conditioning
Work conditioning programs rebuild strength and endurance for injured workers through structured routines lasting 2-4 hours. Focusing on cardiovascular reconditioning and job-specific functional activities, this service prevents job disassociation and facilitates safe return-to-work transitions.
