Services
Physical Therapy
Our comprehensive physical therapy programs address musculoskeletal and neurological conditions through customized treatment plans. Using evidence-based techniques like manual therapy and dry needling, we help patients recover from injuries, manage chronic pain, and improve mobility. Our approach focuses on identifying root causes of dysfunction to achieve lasting results.
Vestibular Rehabilitation
Specialized balance disorder treatment combines exercise-based programs with advanced equipment to address dizziness and vertigo. Our therapists create individualized plans to reduce fall risks, improve coordination, and restore functional independence for patients with vestibular impairments through targeted neuromuscular retraining.
TMJ Treatment
Our TMJ specialists address temporomandibular joint disorders through manual techniques and laser therapy. This comprehensive approach reduces facial pain, improves jaw mobility, and resolves associated symptoms like headaches and ear pain through targeted interventions that address both muscular and neurological components.
Neurological Rehabilitation
Certified specialists provide targeted treatment for neurological conditions including Parkinson's disease and multiple sclerosis. Using LSVT BIG certification protocols and customized exercise programs, we help patients regain motor function, improve gait patterns, and enhance overall quality of life through neuroplasticity-focused interventions.
Dry Needling
Advanced dry needling techniques target muscular trigger points to alleviate chronic pain and improve tissue mobility. This evidence-based intervention complements manual therapy by addressing deep tissue restrictions, promoting circulation, and facilitating neuromuscular reset for patients with complex musculoskeletal conditions.
