Services
Aquatic Therapy
Aquatic therapy utilizes water's buoyancy to reduce joint stress while enhancing muscle strength and balance. This low-impact treatment is ideal for arthritis, chronic pain, and post-surgical recovery. Our Hydroworx EVO pool provides advanced therapeutic options for all ages and abilities.
Dry Needling
Dry needling targets muscle trigger points with fine needles to relieve tension and pain. Effective for migraines, sports injuries, and fibromyalgia, this technique improves mobility and function. Combined with exercises, it offers lasting pain relief and recovery.
LSVT BIG for Parkinson's
LSVT BIG trains Parkinson's patients to recalibrate movement patterns, improving walking, balance, and daily activities. Customized programs address individual needs, promoting independence and slowing symptom progression through targeted exercises.
Vestibular Rehabilitation
Vestibular rehab addresses vertigo and balance issues using maneuvers like BPPV repositioning and gaze stabilization exercises. Tailored plans reduce dizziness, enhance stability, and include home exercises for sustained progress in managing inner ear disorders.
Work Injury Rehabilitation
Specialized rehab for work-related injuries combines manual therapy, ergonomic education, and work simulation. Programs restore function, prevent re-injury, and ensure safe return-to-work transitions, addressing conditions from repetitive strain to post-surgical recovery.
