Services
Physical Therapy
Our physical therapy services focus on restoring mobility and reducing pain through customized treatment plans. Using hands-on techniques and movement reeducation, we address musculoskeletal conditions, post-surgical recovery, and chronic pain. Patients learn self-management strategies to maintain improvements long after therapy concludes.
Aston-Patterning
This integrated system combines bodywork, movement education, and ergonomic design to improve posture and function. By reorganizing movement patterns, patients experience reduced pain and enhanced performance in daily activities and specialized pursuits like dance or music.
Scoliosis Treatment
Specialized programs target spinal curvature through postural retraining and stabilization exercises. Patients learn to manage symptoms independently while working to reduce curvature severity through consistent home exercise programs and hands-on therapy sessions.
Musicians' Therapy
Ergonomic assessments and movement retraining help musicians prevent and recover from repetitive strain injuries. Our approach improves playing technique while reducing physical discomfort, allowing artists to enhance both their comfort and performance quality.
Ergonomic Assessments
We evaluate and optimize workspaces to prevent repetitive strain injuries through posture correction and equipment recommendations. Customized solutions address computer use, instrument playing, and daily activities to reduce cumulative physical stress.
