Manual therapy is a specialized physical therapy treatment that involves hands-on techniques to evaluate and treat joint and soft tissue dysfunction. Manual therapy techniques may include mobilization, manipulation, and massage of the affected area to improve joint mobility, reduce pain, and improve function. Our therapists have undergone extensive training and certification in manual therapy techniques. This training includes study of anatomy, biomechanics, and neurophysiology.

Dry Needling

Dry needling is a technique that is used to treat musculoskeletal pain and dysfunction. It involves the insertion of thin, solid needles into the skin and muscle tissue without the injection of any medication or fluid. The needles are typically similar to those used in acupuncture, but the techniques and theories behind the two practices are vastly different. The goal of dry needling is to release tension and tightness in muscles and fascia, which can cause pain and limit range of motion. The needles are inserted into trigger points, which are areas of tightness and sensitivity in muscles. By inserting the needles into these trigger points, the practitioner can help to stimulate a healing response in the body and promote the release of tension.

Worker's Comp Rehabilitation

The goal of workman's comp therapy is to help injured workers regain their strength, mobility, and independence, so they can return to work as soon as possible.  Our capable therapists will work with you to develop a plan and help you improve your function to return to work safely. Workman's comp therapy is typically covered by the worker's compensation insurance, so there is typically no out-of-pocket expense for the injured worker. If you have been injured on the job and require physical therapy, be sure to speak with your employer or workman's comp insurance provider to learn more about your options.

This may include lifestyle modifications, such as changes to diet and exercise habits, as well as strategies for preventing further injury or exacerbation of symptoms.

The therapies are tailored to the specific needs of the individual, taking into account the location and severity of the injury.

Physical therapy may involve exercises to improve strength, flexibility, and balance. It may also involve gait training or the use of specialized equipment, such as braces or prosthetics, to help individuals regain mobility.

Occupational therapy focuses on helping individuals develop the skills and strategies necessary to perform activities of daily living, such as dressing, grooming, and feeding themselves. This may involve adaptations to the individual's environment or the use of assistive devices.

Occupational Therapy (OT)

Our highly trained Occupational Therapy providers can help you to regain your independence and equip you with the tools and techniques to help you reach your potential while improving overall quality of life.

  • Neurological Conditions (Total Brain Injuries (TBI), Stroke, Spinal Cord Injuries, Multiple Sclerosis, Parkinson’s Disease, Cerebral Palsy)
  • Pediatric Conditions (Cerebral Palsy, Autism, Sensory processing disorders)

The goal of occupational therapy is to empower a patient with the ability to have agency over their own life. By helping a patient learn or relearn how to perform the tasks associated with living, occupational therapists restore patient independence and otherwise enhance the quality of life.

Exactly what this looks like will vary according to the goals of the patient and the specialty of the occupational therapist. For example, an occupational therapist might help a patient:

  • Develop fine motor skills that allow them to handle and manipulate items such as a pen, eating utensil, key, or other tool
  • Improve hand-eye coordination necessary for interacting with the world around them
  • Learn basic tasks such as eating, bathing, getting dressed, going to the bathroom, etc.
  • Regulate and manage emotions, which is particularly important for children and individuals with behavioral disorders
  • Occupational therapy is a healthcare profession that aims to help people of all ages achieve independence in their daily activities or “occupations.” These activities may include self-care tasks, work or school-related tasks, leisure activities, and more.
  • Occupational therapists work with individuals who have physical, cognitive, emotional, or developmental disabilities or impairments, and help them develop or recover skills needed for daily living. They also help individuals adapt to their environment, modify their daily routine, and use assistive devices to facilitate their performance of daily activities.
  • Occupational therapy interventions may include therapeutic exercises, training in self-care skills, ergonomic modifications to work or home environments, cognitive training, and more. The ultimate goal of occupational therapy is to promote individuals’ overall health and well-being, and enable them to participate fully in daily activities that are meaningful to them.
