Physical Therapy  Skilled therapists work with patients to help decrease pain while increasing strength, endurance, balance and range of motion.

Occupational Therapy   Working to help patients improve coordination and fine motor skills, therapists guide them in regaining maximum ability.

Speech Therapy  Experienced, certified speech-language pathologists help patients with communication or swallowing disorders improve their ability to interact and be understood. We work with children and adults to develop comprehensive, personalized treatment plans.

Hand Program   Highly specialized services help those with injuries or disorders of the hands and arms. These can include burns, crush injuries, fractures, amputations, arthritis, joint replacements, sports injuries or repetitive motion problems. 

Aquatic Therapy Program   Water is known for its therapeutic properties. In our specially designed, equipped pool, we offer a safe, effective environment where patients can achieve recuperative goals. Aquatic therapy benefits patients with multiple sclerosis, arthritis, chronic back pain, total joint replacement, orthopedic injuries, stroke and those recovering from surgery.

Spine Program   Eight of 10 Americans experience a back injury at some point. This program helps those with spinal injuries resulting in pain and decreased motion, function and strength. Therapy can help relieve pain by correcting movement patterns and strengthening muscles that support the spine.

Patients may contact the center directly, but a physician's prescription is necessary to start treatment. We accept a number of different insurance plans, and offer flexible hours.
