Services
Physical Therapy
Our physical therapy services address musculoskeletal injuries, post-surgical recovery, and mobility limitations through customized treatment plans. Using evidence-based techniques, we help patients reduce pain, improve strength, and restore functional movement patterns. Each session focuses on individual progress while incorporating patient education to support long-term wellness outcomes.
Occupational Therapy
Specialized occupational therapy programs target upper extremity injuries and daily living skill restoration. We treat conditions like carpal tunnel syndrome and hand injuries through targeted exercises and adaptive techniques. Our approach emphasizes regaining independence in work, home, and recreational activities while preventing future injuries.
Pre/Post Surgical Rehab
Comprehensive rehabilitation programs support patients before and after surgical procedures. Pre-operative conditioning prepares patients for surgery while post-operative protocols follow physician guidelines to optimize healing. Our phased approach ensures safe progression from basic mobility to functional restoration throughout the recovery timeline.
Sports Injuries
Targeted treatment plans address common sports-related injuries including shoulder, knee, and ankle conditions. We combine manual therapy with sport-specific exercises to restore performance capabilities. Return-to-play protocols ensure athletes regain full function while minimizing re-injury risks through biomechanical assessments and strength training.
Pelvic Floor Therapy
Exclusive pelvic floor therapy services address musculoskeletal components of pelvic health conditions. This specialized treatment involves internal and external soft tissue work combined with neuromuscular re-education. Our certified therapists create private, comfortable environments for patients seeking non-invasive solutions to pelvic floor dysfunction.

I have been going to these guys sense the early 90s. Kaelan is so awesome. She used sastm and other techniques that gives me such relief. She knows how to get in there. The other therapist are awesome too. Great people. Please give them a try.

I had an issue and went to an orthopedic surgeon. He suggested a brace and PT. I picked Amy from WVR and she immediately diagnosed the real issue. Without her I would have been facing surgery. Following her regiment of exercises I am close to being back to normal and will be soon. Amy is amazing. I recommend her to anyone. You will not believe the results.

Nancy at the Richmond location was very rude, did not seem like she cared about her job at all, and gave me a terrible experience here. Do not go here for any of its services.
