What services might I receive at the rehabilitation center?

The rehabilitation center has a fully equipped gym and a 5,500-gallon heated saltwater pool that accommodates up to five patients. The pool is heated and contains massage jets to soothe sore muscles at the end of a workout or physical therapy session.

In addition to aquatic therapy and exercise, the rehabilitation center takes a holistic approach, incorporating integrative therapies that support your mind, body, and spirit. You can choose from therapies such as:

Acupuncture

Acupuncture promotes healing of many health conditions but works especially well for easing chronic pain.

Dry needling

Dry needling relaxes trigger points (muscle spasms).

Medical massage supports healing and recovery from your orthopedic condition. They offer different types of massage, including deep tissue, sports, therapeutic, hot stone, and Swedish.

Work conditioning program

IDD therapy is a spinal treatment that opens the disc space between vertebrae, alleviating the pain caused by herniated and degenerative discs.
