  • Aquatic therapy in Gillette's only therapeutic swimming pool
  • Cancer Rehabilitation: Helping patients with side effects from cancer treatment or surgery.
  • Concussion/neurological: A Neurological Clinical Therapist treats disorders of the central nervous system (CNS) and peripheral nervous system (PNS). Patients with these disorders may suffer from conditions such as dizziness, vertigo, balance issues, ALS (Lou Gehrig’s disease), MS (multiple sclerosis), Parkinson’s Disease, spinal cord injury, traumatic brain injury or post-concussion syndrome.
  • Cupping: Cupping therapy is a form of alternative medicine where a therapist puts special cups on your skin for a few minutes to create suction. People use cupping to help with pain, inflammation, blood flow, relaxation, and well-being, and as a type of deep-tissue massage.
  • Dry needling: Dry needling is a technique physical therapists use for the treatment of pain and movement impairments. The technique uses a “dry” needle, one without medication or injection, inserted through the skin into areas of the muscle.
  • Pelvic Physical Therapy: non-invasive, non-surgical interventions can offer relief from years of pain, incontinence, and other pelvic issues.

Work Health

  • Back to work rehab with Work Hardening and Work Conditioning programs: A patient learns and practices proper body mechanics and symptom management, participates in strength and endurance training, and job simulation activities pertaining to their particular job.
  • Body Mechanics Education Classes: Our professional staff instructs groups on proper body mechanics, material handling techniques, and mini-stretching and strengthening programs.
  • Ergonomic Evaluations: Injuries often don’t just happen during accidents; they can stem from daily work activities that strain our muscles, tendons, nerves and joints, having long-term effects on our well being. Our professional staff works with individuals and businesses to ensure that stressful work tasks and workplace hazards don’t aggravate the body. By identifying these negative situations, our therapists provide ergonomic recommendations and solutions for redesigning workspace and job tasks.
  • Functional Capacity Evaluations: Functional capacity evaluations (FCE's) determine a person's overall capabilities/limitations to return to work and are often used to assist with disability/impairment ratings.
  • Job Analysis: Job analysis is completed on site by trained and certified staff to identify critical job demands.
  • Pre-employment and return to work screenings and evaluations: The physical demands of each custom screening test are based on information gathered via Job Analysis to help reduce on-the-job injuries.
