Therapy shouldn't end when the insurance does
Most clinics discharge you at "good enough." We built a progression that keeps going — same therapists, same building, a plan that grows with you.
Rehab & Recovery
Referred by your physician, covered by insurance. One-on-one treatment until pain resolves and function returns.
Insurance-basedThe Bridge
Discharged, but not done? We re-test strength, mobility, and movement to map exactly what's left between "healed" and "confident."
Insurance-based / directPerformance
Sport-specific programs in the Performance Lab — swing speed, sprint mechanics, endurance, strength — built by doctors of physical therapy.
Direct, cash-basedLongevity
Periodic movement checkups and training plans that keep you golfing, running, and lifting grandkids for decades.
Direct, cash-basedHands-on care for what hurts
Orthopedic, manual physical therapy is what we've done since 1989. Every plan starts with a thorough evaluation and ends with you back to the life you had — or better.
