Our Services

Lee Silverman Voice Therapy (LSVT) BIG is a research-based exercise treatment for patients with Parkinson’s Disease. Those living with Parkinson’s often move with smaller and slower body movements. This exercise program helps restore normal movement patterns and improved function for those with Parkinson’s Disease. LSVT BIG can be beneficial during any stage of Parkinson’s. LSVT BIG therapy can only be performed by certified therapists.

Manual therapy includes skilled, hands-on treatment to diagnose and care for soft tissue and joint dysfunction. Manual therapy may be used to:

  • Reduce pain
  • Improve range of motion
  • Decrease myofascial restrictions
  • Decrease swelling
  • Improve circulation
  • Reduce muscle tension

Orthopedic physical therapy focuses on the evaluation and treatment of muscles, bones, tendons, ligaments and joints. Our clinic treats conditions like:

  • Plantar fasciitis
  • Hip bursitis
  • Knee instability
  • Stenosis
  • Disc herniations

Therapy generally includes strengthening, flexibility, modalities, and manual (hands-on) treatment.

Pelvic floor physical therapy addresses pelvic pain, weakness or dysfunction of the pelvic floor muscle group. This type of therapy can help with conditions like:

  • Urinary incontinence or difficulty voiding
  • Bowel dysfunction
  • Pain with intercourse
  • Unexplained pelvic, genital or rectal pain

Therapy can also help restore normal function after pelvic surgeries, childbirth and pelvic cancer treatment. Our specially trained therapists use corrective exercise, biofeedback and manual techniques to help return normal function of the pelvic floor.

The success of surgery greatly depends on the post-operative care. Some of the benefits of therapy following surgery include:

  • Improved mobility
  • Improved circulation
  • Pain reduction
  • Better muscle strength
  • Improved balance
  • Strengthened core

Even though surgery is a stressful time for everyone, having a personalized therapy plan will greatly help the healing and recovery process.

Sports medicine can help you overcome injuries such as:

  • Ankle sprains
  • Runner’s knee
  • Golfer’s elbow
  • Shin splints
  • Shoulder tendonitis

It also includes post-operative therapy for ACL reconstruction, rotator cuff repairs and meniscus surgeries. Our therapists work with all levels of athletes, from the casual golfer to the high-level competitive athlete. The therapy evaluates and treats the root cause of dysfunction, helping return you to whatever activity you enjoy without re-injury.

We work with your case manager, adjustor and doctor to help coordinate the best possible care to return you back to work. Physical therapy will initially focus on acute injury while progressing you back to work related and functional tasks. This may include a Functional Capacity Evaluation, work conditioning program, specific work ergonomic training and a job-site analysis.
