Services
Physical Therapy
Our physical therapists diagnose and treat movement disorders using evidence-based techniques. Certified specialists address conditions like arthritis, sports injuries, and post-surgical recovery through customized exercise programs and manual therapy. Advanced treatments include dry needling and vestibular rehabilitation for comprehensive musculoskeletal care.
Occupational Therapy
Specialized hand therapy services address upper extremity injuries through custom splinting and functional rehabilitation. Therapists focus on restoring independence in daily activities while providing ergonomic assessments for workplace injury prevention and management.
Aquatic Therapy
Warm-water therapy utilizes an under-water treadmill to reduce joint stress while improving mobility. This low-impact approach enables earlier rehabilitation for post-surgical patients and those with chronic pain conditions through controlled resistance training in our private aquatic facility.
Pediatric Services
School-based physical therapy programs promote gross motor development for children aged 0-21. Individualized interventions address developmental delays and mobility challenges through play-based activities, equipment adaptation, and family education to support educational participation.
Industrial Services
Comprehensive occupational medicine programs reduce workplace injuries through ergonomic evaluations and customized rehabilitation plans. Services include pre-employment testing, on-site injury management, and drug screening programs tailored to Nebraska employers' specific needs.
