Occupational Therapy
Occupational therapists help patients with skills for living, such as caring for themselves, cooking, homemaking and working. We work with people of all ages who, because of illness or injury, need to re-learn skills to return to productive, independent and satisfying lives.
The rehabilitation process can be different for every patient, often requiring specialized or personalized types of therapy. Our team works closely with Physical Therapy, Speech Therapy and other members of your care team to guide you to recovery.
Shockwave Therapy
Shockwave therapy is a technique used in orthopedics, sports medicine, physical and occupational therapy. It is a non-surgical, non-invasive therapy that transmits focused acoustic waves to affected tissue. These waves stimulate the body’s natural healing mechanisms to aid in the reduction of pain, restoration of normal tissue function, and reducing the need for medications and/or significant activity modification.
Deep Tissue Laser Therapy
Laser therapy is used in orthopedics, physical and occupational therapy, and sports medicine. It is a non-surgical, non-invasive therapy that uses focused light to stimulate a process called photobiomodulation (PBM). During PBM, photons enter the affected tissue and trigger a biological cascade of events that leads to an increase in cellular metabolism, which can decrease pain and inflammation and accelerate the healing process.
