Physical Therapy
Our physical therapy program addresses acute injuries, chronic pain, and post-surgical recovery through therapeutic exercises, manual therapy, and advanced modalities. We focus on improving mobility, strength, and endurance while reducing pain. Tailored treatment plans incorporate techniques like kinesiotaping, electrical stimulation, and neuromuscular re-education to restore functional independence for daily activities and work-related tasks.
Work Hardening Program
This structured program prepares individuals for job-specific demands through simulated work tasks, body mechanics training, and physical conditioning. Sessions emphasize safe work practices, joint protection, and self-management strategies over 3-4 hours, 2-3 days weekly. It bridges the gap between recovery and full occupational reintegration for injured workers.
Ergonomic Evaluations
On-site evaluations analyze workstations and environments to identify ergonomic risks. We provide recommendations for equipment adjustments and teach proper posture and material handling techniques. This service reduces workplace injuries and supports safe return-to-work transitions through photo analysis and employee education.
Functional Capacity Evaluations
These evaluations measure an individual's physical capabilities for job placement or return-to-work readiness. Assessments include strength testing, endurance metrics, and motivational analysis over 2-5 hours. Results guide employers in matching employee capacities to job demands while ensuring safety and compliance.
Medical Massage Therapy
Specialized massage techniques target muscle imbalances, postural deficits, and chronic pain management. Services include trigger point therapy, deep tissue work, and myofascial release to improve circulation, reduce tension, and enhance functional mobility for both occupational and personal injury recovery.
