Rehabilitation Services
Our skilled rehabilitation therapists treat inpatients and outpatients of all ages. We evaluate and develop a comprehensive program based on individual needs. Each follow-up session enhances the rehabilitation process by positively influencing a patients quality of life.Physical therapists teach patients how to prevent or manage their condition so that they will achieve long-term health benefits. Physical therapists examine each individual and develop a plan, using treatment techniques to promote the ability to move, reduce pain, restore function and prevent disability.
Occupational therapy helps people across the lifespan participate in the things they want and need to do through the therapeutic use of everyday activities (occupations). Occupational therapy services may include comprehensive evaluation of a client's home and other environments (e.g., workplace, school), recommendations for adaptive equipment and training in its use, and guidance and education for family members and caregivers.Speech therapy works to prevent, assess, diagnose and treat speech, language, social communication, cognitive-communication and swallowing disorders in children and adults.
New, dedicated lymphedema treatment services
Lymphedema is a chronic condition where a protein rich fluid called lymph or lymphatic fluid collects in the tissues just below the skin causing swelling. Your lymphatic system runs throughout your body and is like a plumbing system for your lymph fluid.When this system does not work properly, your body cannot effectively transport lymph fluid. When transport is interrupted and lymph fluid cannot drain properly, it causes swelling where the drainage is disrupted. This swelling can be in any part of the body.When the fluid remains stagnant in the tissue, the body recognizes this excess protein as “foreign” and wants to “wall off” this area to protect it. This can cause a state of inflammation, which then causes fibrosis (scar tissue). That fibrosis can feel hard and tight, and makes it more difficult for the fluid to move out of the area. It also puts patients at higher risk of wounds healing slowly and infections called cellulitis or lymphangitis. Treatment for lymphedema focuses on reducing the swelling and controlling the pain. Lymphedema treatments includes:- Manual lymphatic drainage
- Compression therapy
- Patient exercises
- Extensive patient education
