Services
Orthopedic Rehabilitation
Specialized recovery programs for post-surgical patients and musculoskeletal injuries. Our therapists employ manual techniques and targeted exercises to restore mobility and strength. Treatment plans address conditions like joint replacements, fractures, and ligament repairs, focusing on functional restoration through evidence-based protocols.
Sports Rehabilitation
Customized programs for sports-related injuries including sprains, strains, and overuse conditions. We combine performance assessments with sport-specific training to accelerate return to activity. Our approach integrates injury prevention strategies and biomechanical analysis to optimize athletic performance and reduce re-injury risks.
Manual Therapy
Skilled therapeutic techniques including joint mobilization, soft tissue manipulation, and myofascial release. These hands-on interventions improve range of motion, reduce pain, and enhance tissue healing. Combined with therapeutic exercises, manual therapy addresses acute injuries and chronic musculoskeletal conditions through direct physical intervention.
Lumbar Decompression
Non-surgical traction therapy for lower back pain and disc-related conditions. This targeted treatment reduces pressure on spinal discs to alleviate nerve compression symptoms. Available exclusively at our Hampton Cove location, it's particularly effective for sciatica, herniated discs, and degenerative disc disease.
Balance Training
Specialized programs to improve stability and prevent falls through vestibular rehabilitation and proprioceptive training. Our therapists address balance deficits from neurological conditions, inner ear disorders, or age-related decline using evidence-based protocols and functional mobility exercises.
