SERVICES:

Physical Therapy: Through exercise and education, our therapists work to improve mobility, strength, range of motion and decrease pain.

Occupational Therapy: Through exercise and education, patients learn adaptive techniques that help them overcome physical and cognitive disabilities. Our focus is to help individuals become more independent in personal self-care and the activities of daily living.

Speech & Language Therapy: Through exercise and education, our speech therapists strive to improve language skills and swallowing function, increase attention and concentration abilities, and if needed, provide for alternative communication systems.

Neuropsychology: Through evaluation, testing, and counseling, our neuropsychology staff helps individuals adjust to cognitive deficits, disability, problem solving, personal, and family issues.

Aquatic Therapy: Provided in a therapeutic pool with the temperature maintained at a comfortable 95 degrees, this therapy is very beneficial to those individuals who may not be able to tolerate a land based program.

PROGRAMS AND SPECIALITY SERVICES:
