Speech Therapy addresses issues that limit an individual's ability to communicate either verbally or in writing. This therapy may also include understanding and producing the spoken word, understanding symbols to allow for reading and writing, and concepts. Neurological conditions are often treated with a team approach. Following a stroke or head injury a patient frequently requires therapy from more than one discipline. Our therapy staff works closely with the patient, caregivers, and physicians in order to provide a comprehensive program.
Orthopedic conditions make up the majority of patients seen in our facility.
Many of our patients are in the process of recovering from surgeries such as total joint replacement or arthroscopy. A number of our patients have repetitive injuries such as carpal tunnel syndrome, tendonitis or bursitis. We have a hand specialist who works with patients who have undergone surgery or have an injury requiring this specialty. We also provide an educational program regarding back injuries through our Back School. Lymphedema is a condition that results in swelling, usually of the arm or leg, due to a problem with the lymphatic system.
