Rehabilitation Therapies
With a focus on helping guests return to their previous level of functioning, our highly skilled therapists create personalized care plans, each of which is created in collaboration with physicians, nurses, social workers, and nutritionists to ensure holistic, well-rounded support. These plans may include one or more of the following therapies:
- Physical therapy: Our PT professionals incorporate a variety of exercises to promote better movement, balance, and strength. We can treat a wide variety of movement disorders.
- Occupational therapy: In our fully equipped rehab gym, we focus on restoring motor coordination, manual dexterity, and sensory perception. Our goal is to improve your mobility and help you maintain an active lifestyle.
- Speech therapy: We help patients regain language skills and overcome swallowing problems that are common among stroke survivors, those with speech disorders, and people with other health conditions that affect speech.
- Respiratory therapy: Our therapists assist patients with breathing problems by assessing their current lung function and developing treatment plans to help them breathe more easily.
In our modern rehabilitation gym, we work daily with patients to reach critical recovery benchmarks, celebrating every milestone as they progress toward their goals.
