Licensed therapists on both campuses are trained to understand all of the movements and interactions of the body. They can examine and assess patients’ conditions and design a treatment plan. Therapist also instruct how to maintain good health and assist in preventing further incidents.

“The therapy did a world of good for me and got me strong after my operation,” said Don C. Thurman of Heuvelton.
