McDowell Wellness Center Rehabilitation Services

Our trained and licensed professionals provide comprehensive rehabilitation services including physical, occupational and speech therapy.

Physical Therapy - When you are disabled by an injury or illness, our physical therapists can use a variety of techniques to assist in your recovery. These may include aquatic therapy, therapeutic exercise, pain management techniques and manual therapy skills.

Occupational Therapy - To regain skills or learn skills adapted to your condition, you can benefit from occupational therapy - including training in the skills of daily living (e.g., bathing, eating), increasing upper body function, using assistive devices and adaptive equipment, training in using your body energy wisely, and work simplification/modification.
