THERAPEUTIC  SERVICES AVAILABLE


UNDERWATER TREADMILL:  The body bears less weight in water, which reduces the load on painful joints and permits more comfortable exercise. The water pressure can reduce swelling and edema. Resistance to movement in water is useful for muscle strengthening and cardiovascular training. The stabilizing and buoyant effects of water enable many patients to perform exercises that they are unable to do on land.

LOW LEVEL LASER THERAPY:  Low-level laser therapy directs biostimulative light energy to the body’s cells which the cells then convert into chemical energy to promote natural healing and pain relief.

THERAPEUTIC EXERCISE PROGRAMS:  Clinic and home exercise programs are specially constructed for each individual. These programs can focus on neurological retraining, joint range of motion, core body strengthening, front limb , rear limb, sporting rehabilitation and conditioning, and/ weight control.
