Meet the Doctor: During your initial doctor consultation, we will talk at length about what challenges you're currently facing. From there, we will speak about your goals and what you want to accomplish together. The first conversation with your doctor is crucial and lays the groundwork for a life-changing experience at Denville Medical.
Craft a Customized Treatment Plan for Your Recovery: Some medical and rehabilitation centers in New Jersey apply the same treatments to all patients, regardless of their needs and goals. At Denville Medical, we don't subscribe to the "one size fits all" model. Instead, we rely on our seasoned team of doctors and physical therapists, chiropractors, acupuncturists and specialists to find the right solution to your unique situation.
Start Feeling the Relief: Our hard work and commitment to recovery will pay off through our personalized work together. With the help of our skilled doctors and chiropractors, you can finally start living the life you want to live - all on your own terms.
At Denville Medical & Sports Rehabilitation Center, we are proud to provide holistic and wellness care that changes lives. Whether your body needs Chiropractor, physical therapy, acupuncture, or needs to see a specialist, we can help.
Here are just a few of the customized therapy services we offer to help our patients live with passion and confidence:
At Denville Medical, your licensed physical therapist's goal is to maximize your body's structure and increase its overall function for long-term health. To accomplish this, our physical therapists combine traditional and innovative techniques focused on increasing muscle strength and improving the body's range of motion. Our goal is to discover the root cause of your pain or mobility problems. That way, we can address the true reason why you need physical therapy, and work towards achieving long-lasting relief.
Of course, we understand that every patient is different. Your doctor can provide expert care in an encouraging environment by creating a customized treatment plan for you using modern, evidence-based research.
Chiropractor is a common service offered at Denville Medical, often combined with our physical therapy, sports medicine, and acupuncture treatments. When delivering a whole wellness and body approach, chiropractic treatments generally focus on the musculoskeletal and nervous systems. Our chiropractor's primary focus is to aid in adjusting your body's proper structure by improving nerve function and removing imbalances.
Our goal is to work together as a team to get you maximum medical improvement. To determine which chiropractic techniques and treatments are suitable for you, our chiropractors will conduct an initial evaluation to dig deep into your medical history, previous treatments, diagnostic tests, and current conditions. During your first consultation, be sure to ask any questions you may have. Once we agree on your customized chiropractic program, we will begin treatment as soon as possible.
Our patients typically feel relief during their initial visit. Although a reduction in pain is not an indication that the condition is gone, relief is the first step. As the chiropractor adjusts and manipulates your spine and joints, many feel a sense of relief as circulation is restored. A number of our patients admit to experiencing an increased range of motion after their first visit and increased function as they continue their care.
A single migraine can ruin your entire day. Migraines stem from irregular muscle contractions in the neck and head area. Anything from loud music to a bright computer screen can trigger these painful headaches. Fortunately, your chiropractor may be able to help provide an escape from the pain without surgery or drugs. Migraine symptoms include:
After speaking with your Doctor of Chiropractic, he or she may recommend treatments like trigger point therapy, which is a neuromuscular massage. Trigger point therapy boosts blood flow and releases pressure from compressed nerves in your body.
Whether you work in an office 40 hours a week or have to lift heavy items in a warehouse, neck pain is common across all people and professions. Neck pain is debilitating and can be caused by a range of issues like poor posture, work injuries, and harmful sleeping positions. These issues often strain your neck muscles. If you notice any of these symptoms, it could be time to consult with a chiropractor:
Chiropractor helps by relieving nerve and disc pressure. These nerves and discs are located between your vertebrae. After identifying the underlying cause of your pain, your chiropractor may use a combination of treatments to provide relief.
Have you been suffering from sharp pain that shoots down your back to your lower legs? If so, you might have sciatica. Your sciatic nerve is the longest nerve in your body. Sciatic pain begins when your sciatic nerve is pinched or trapped, or you have underlying conditions like spinal stenosis or a herniated disc. Symptoms of Sciatica often include:
Proper Chiropractor can relieve your pain in a gentle, natural way. Since your pain is unique, your treatment plan should be too. Therapies include ultrasounds to reduce swelling, cold therapies to minimize inflammation, and adjustments to restore your vertebrae's alignment.
Joint pain from conditions like Arthritis can strip the joy out of simple activities that we enjoy every day. Fortunately, if you're looking for a non-invasive way to ease joint pain, your chiropractor may be able to help. Great Chiropractor will maximize the functionality of your joints with techniques like ultrasounds, cold laser therapies, and joint manipulation. Usually caused by various forms of Arthritis, age, and injuries, symptoms of joint pain include:
If joint pain affects your daily life, contact a licensed chiropractor to begin treatment ASAP. Your chiropractor will develop a customized plan around your pain to address the root cause of your discomfort.
Our hips serve many functions, from bearing weight to running. Since they're engaged in just about every way we move, hip problems can have serious consequences. Like neck pain, hip pain is very common â so much so that more than 58% of Americans are living with it, according to the CDC. Hip problems are usually caused by injuries or osteoarthritis, though normal wear and tear over time is also a contributing factor. If you notice any of these symptoms, an appointment with a chiropractor may be in order:
Since any joint in the body can be misaligned, like your hip joint, working with a chiropractor could be best for long-term relief. Any joint in the body can be out of alignment, including the hip joint, and it can cause severe pain, discomfort, and limited range of motion. Treatments in your personalized plan may include chiropractic adjustments, stretching, and exercise therapy.
Your spine comprises a litany of moving parts that must work together for healthy mobility. Spinal discs are just one of these parts, which act as cushions between your vertebrae. When you have a herniated disc, the bones in your spine grind against each other, causing intense pain. Also called a slipped disc, this back problem is very common and can be caused by wear and tear with age or traumatic events like car accidents. Keep an eye out for the following symptoms of a herniated disc:
After your chiropractor evaluates your spine for overall functionality, they will develop a personalized treatment plan for ongoing care. Common treatments for herniated discs include spinal manipulation techniques like flexion-distraction and therapeutic exercises.
Spinal Decompression Therapy is designed to relieve nerve compression in the spine. This gentle stretch helps relieve pressure and realign the spine in order to reduce those unbearable symptoms. In addition, once the spine is properly aligned, blood flow will increase, reducing swelling and inflammation of the problem area. This then allows the body to be more mobile, or, as a provider will say, increases your range of motion, for easier movement and functionality of the body.
Methods of Spinal Decompression Therapy include:
Keep in mind, Spinal Decompression Therapy is not for everyone. Diagnostic tests, such as an x-ray, MRI or Ct-scan are required for a proper and full examination.
At Denville Medical, we aim to serve you with long-lasting quality of life through personalized chiropractic treatments in New Jersey. The path to a pain-free life begins with a customized treatment plan tailored to your body and needs. We start with your first evaluation, where our experts dig deep into your medical history, current condition, your overall health goals and perform diagnostic tests. From there, we'll create your plan and help you hit your milestones every step of the way until your quality of life is improved.
If you're sick and tired of living with painful limitations, we're here to help you break free. No surgery. No addictive medicine. Only comprehensive Chiropractor, crafted with health and happiness in mind.
Answer : While some chiropractors rely on outdated techniques to treat patients, our team uses a combination of tried-and-true methods and modern strategies, including:
Answer : During your first visit with our physical therapist, we will complete a series of tests and screenings to establish a baseline for your care. You can expect to complete stability screenings, strength tests, and computerized range of motion tests. These tests ensure your doctor understands how your muscles are functioning. Once complete, your therapist will create a custom treatment plan for your physical therapy, so we can move forward with your care. During your time at Denville Medical, you should expect adjustments to your treatment plan as you make progress.
Answer : We get this question a lot, and we can certainly understand why. Unfortunately, we cannot provide you with an exact answer because every patient has different needs relating to their injuries and issues. Your level of stability and functionality depends on your condition, your goals, and your motivation to heal. For acute pain, patients typically experience relief in 2-3 weeks. Patients with forms of chronic pain usually feel optimal results after their first full course of therapy (4-6 weeks). Since our goal is to achieve maximum medical improvement, our doctors continuously monitor your progress and adjust treatment accordingly.
If we could offer you one piece of advice, it would be not to settle for mediocre medical treatment and therapeutic options. If you're looking for a team of doctors and therapists who work together and take an interdisciplinary approach to healing, Denville Medical & Sports Rehabilitation is here for you. Contact our office today to learn more about how we can help you achieve your chiropractic goals and live your life, pain-free.

he name Ombra means ‘shade’ or ‘shadow’ in Italian. It’s also Venetian slang for a small glass of wine, ‘un ombra de vin.’ It’s a fitting name for the Venetian-inspired salumeria and bar open in Boonton. But the name has even further cultural meaning behind it.
Legend says that a wine vendor set up his wine cart daily beneath a bell tower in Venice. He’d move his cart to stay in the tower’s shadow as the sun moved. That’s how the expression ‘to meet someone in the shadow of the bell tower’ came to mean ‘meet for a glass of wine.’ Over time, a glass of wine in Venice became known as an ‘ombra.’

The restaurant is broken into a main dining area and lower level bar. The main floor boasts a mid-century modern vibe with a large oak bar. Patrons will notice exposed brick, tufted brown leather banquettes, and a white marble open-kitchen area. Meanwhile, the downstairs offers a smaller bar in a dimly lit intimate lounge with velvet couches and vintage cocktail tables. They also offer tasting events in their downstairs lounge, including wine tastings and cocktail classes.
Ombra features seasonal cocktails with an Italian flare. All the wines are Italian, focusing on the Veneto and other northern regions of Italy. The curated list is designed to pair with the cuisine and mimic the lists someone would see in Venice.
The Venetian-inspired menu at Ombra consists of various small plates highlighting local and seasonal ingredients and quality, imported products. Most of the menu features “tagliare,” or meat and cheese boards with artisanal cheeses and imported and cured meats. They also serve “cicchetti,” which are traditional small bites. Some examples are pesto and shrimp or goat cheese and salami served on crostini.
Other options include salads, antipasti, breads, and desserts such as the chocolate-butterscotch bomb or ricotta cheesecake with pistachio and cranberry. These desserts are all homemade at one of their other restaurants, Sorellina in Hoboken.
Popular dishes include their baccala salad, quail egg with anchovy, and a current seasonal favorite, apple butter with brebirousse cheese. Likewise, the panzanella salad with homemade focaccia bread and their burrata are big hits. They serve the latter with pears, apples, and granola.
Ombra Owner and Operator Gabi Lombardi grew up nearby in Mountain Lakes. “This was sort of a ‘hometown’ opening for me which is special,” she says. “It’s been really fun seeing many familiar faces enjoying Ombra.”
Gabi is a certified sommelier and International Culinary Center (ICC) graduate. She currently owns three other spots in Hoboken—Sorellina, Sirenetta, and Backstage Lounge. In addition, Gabi is currently renovating a restaurant down the road in Boonton (previously Il Michaelangelo). This new spot will be a full-service, two-story restaurant aiming to open in summer 2024.

BOONTON, New Jersey (WABC) -- A community in Boonton expressed their outrage after the town's decision to reverse a ruling that bans almost all flags from being flown outside town hall, including the Pride flag.
A prior ordinance -- hastily passed by a narrow margin during the town's prior administration -- allowed Pride flags to be flown from town flagpoles. But that is no more.
Boonton Mayor James Lynch said in a statement that reversing the ruling "mitigates the unintended consequences and risk of allowing the town's flagpoles to be public forums that would be open to all flags and even some flags that could be considered undesirable to people."
"The only reason that we can conclude this is that we are the only ones who submitted an application to run a flag," said business owner Vickie Sommers.
The group, Boonton Pride, also won't be allowed to fly a flag over town hall for Pride Month and one on the pole over Grace Lord Park during their annual Pride Fest.
They say the town council reversing the ordinance is backlash for strides they've made in expanding acceptance in the town.
"I feel like made everyone feel so good that the town was behind them in a way that they hadn't shown before," said Boonton Pride's Lindsey Weismann. "And I think some people really hated that."
The LGBTIQ community and its supporters in town rallied on Wednesday, chalking out Pride flags on sidewalks in front of businesses.
"I believe in freedom of showing yourself, whoever you are," said business owner Alex Krasniakov.
Boonton Pride members acknowledged their main focus now is to get the ruling reversed once again.
"It's only been four months and they've completely overturned a bipartisan ordinance that they all agreed on at that time," Weismann said. "So it's huge."

Morristown Daily Record
As many ready for spring break in Morris County, some schools are preparing for a change in top leadership.
One slot was filled last week when Brad Siegel was named the new superintendent of Mountain Lakes' K-12 school district. A new opening has yet to be filled in Boonton Township, where Christian Angelillo announced earlier this month that he would be leaving to take a similar position at a Jersey Shore district.
In Denville, meanwhile, the Rev. Peter Clarke will step down at the end of the school year after seven years as president of Morris Catholic High School.
Siegel, currently superintendent in the K-8 Upper Saddle River district in Bergen County, will succeed Michael Fetherman, who is retiring on June 30.
Fetherman, who took over in Mountain Lakes in 2020, oversaw an expansion of the high school, coped with the COVID-19 pandemic and is currently involved in negotiations for a new 10-year send-receive contract with Boonton Township, whose students attend the district high school. Mountain Lakes serves about 1,400 students, according to state data.
Siegel, who starts on July 1, was hired after a superintendent search committee was formed late last year to recruit a replacement. Candidate interviews were completed last month.
Prior to his five years in Upper Saddle River, Siegel was the K-12 director of curriculum, instruction and assessment for Bergen County's quad-districts (Allendale, Ho-Ho-Kus, Upper Saddle River, and Northern Highlands Regional.) He holds a doctoral degree from Teachers College at Columbia University through the Arts & Humanities Department.
In neighboring Boonton Township, another K-8 district, the school board will hold a special meeting Wednesday to discuss the search to replace Angelillo, who is leaving to take the superintendent's job in Ocean City.
“I look forward to becoming a part of the fabric of the Ocean City community and forging lastingrelationships that will help remind us to celebrate our past accomplishments, while working together toachieve future successes that will make us all proud,” Angelillo stated in a statement issued by the Ocean City district.
Angelillo's new job will see him lead a larger district in Ocean City, which includes a high school, intermediate school and primary school serving 1,877 students. Boonton Township, by comparison, teaches about 400 students in one facility, Rockaway Valley School on Valley Road. Angelillo was selected from a pool of more than 50 applicants, the Ocean City district said in announcing his hire.
Earlier this month, Boonton Township residents voted down a $15 million referendum to fund improvements at Rockaway Valley School, the oldest portions of which were built in 1959. The school board and administration "will evaluate community feedback before deciding how to move forward," Angelillo said after that vote.
After seven years, Rev. Clarke announced last week he will step down as top official at Morris Catholic, which pulls students mostly from Morris County but in recent years has supplemented its enrollment with international students.
"I write to you today with a heavy heart," Clarke advised the school community in a letter last week. "Recently, I spoke to Bishop Sweeney and told him that I would be stepping down as president of Morris Catholic at the end of this academic year. I have always strived to be transparent, and as many of you know, the past few years have been extraordinarily difficult for me with the passing of my mother and some personal medical issues."
Founded in 1957, the school reports 425 students for this school year. Superintendent Mary Baiers is expected to advise the community on the search process for a new leader this week.
"Please join me in thanking Fr. Peter for his service and wishing him all the best in his future endeavors," Board of Trustees Chair Pat McAndrew wrote in a statement following Clarke's announcement. "I want to assure everyone that we will be working closely with the diocese [of Paterson] to ensure we find the best possible candidate to replace him."
More:First-ever digital SAT exam scores are out. How did NJ do?
A native of Mount Olive who grew up in Roxbury, Clarke served as principal of Don Bosco Prep in Wayne prior to arriving at Morris Catholic in 2017. Like Clarke and Angelillo, his term coincided with the challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic.
"I am very proud of all our school community has accomplished over the past seven years," Clarke wrote. "It has indeed been a privilege to continue the fantastic work that generations have achieved and build upon the amazing things that happen daily at Morris Catholic."
The Denville campus also is home to New Jersey's smallest college: In 2014, the Assumption College for Sisters took residence in the former Sisters of Christian Charity dormitory at the high school.

Voters in the West Morris School District overwhelmingly approved a $26 million referendum Tuesday while a similar $15 million proposal failed in Boonton Township.
Both districts were seeking funds for repairs, improvements and expansion of school facilities. The West Morris referendum passed by a vote of 2,303 to 1,255 in a district operating two regional high schools serving the Mendhams, Chesters and Washington. Voters in the single-school K-8 district in Boonton Township denied the referendum by a vote of 521 to 404.
Combined voter turnout for the two questions was 12.2%, according to the Morris County Clerk.
Boonton Township officials hoped to offset the cost of their project proposals with $4.7 million in qualifying state aid that required the referendum to pass first. The district hoped to use the funds in part to replace outdated systems and "improve the school environment" for the 400 students at the K-8 Rockaway Valley School. High school students in the township attend Mountain Lakes High School, where that district is currently seeking a tuition increase from Boonton Township.
“Our responsibility to address the building needs at Rockaway Valley School does not end with this vote," Superintendent Dr. Christian Angelillo wrote in a statement on Wednesday. "The board and administration will evaluate community feedback before deciding how to move forward. We will keep our community updated on the process. We appreciate Boonton Township voters taking the time to learn about the projects and cast their ballots."
The Boonton Township proposal included a new HVAC system for air-conditioned classrooms, updated boilers for heating, additional storage space, a security vestibule for the school entrance, renovations to the nurse's office and an art room and completion of a roof replacement that began in phases over the past two years.
The West Morris approval unlocks $8 million in state aid for planned projects that include partial roof replacements and parking lot improvements, cafeteria and kitchen upgrades, technology labs and air conditioning in all classrooms and common areas at West Morris Central High School in Washington Township and West Morris Mendham High in Mendham.
Updates also will be made to the fieldhouse shower and storage facilities at both schools as well as to the culinary arts room and public address system at West Morris Mendham.
Combined, the two schools serve about 2,100 students in southwest Morris County.

BOONTON, N.J. -- A Morris County park has been closed after a close call with a bear and a flurry of sightings across New Jersey.
A parkgoer's encounter with a black bear forced officials to close Tourne County Park in Boonton this week.
"A bear followed a patron out of the park, even though it knew it was there. It got within a close distance," said Kelli Kovacevic, director of park maintenance and natural resources for Morris County.
The bear's aggressive behavior toward a person was not typical.
"It's unusual behavior. Bears usually keep a distance from humans, especially if they know they're there," said Kovacevic.
According to Kovacevic, part of the blame is on parkgoers who all too often let their dogs run off leash.
"Dogs running off leash are unpredictable in nature, even though people think they have them under control. We often find them running off into the woods and it leads to negative encounters with wildlife," said Kovacevic.
Dogs are required to be on a 6-foot leash in Tourne Park.
Jack Hall walks in and around the park daily and frequently sees dog owners ignoring the rule.
"I really sympathize with the bears because people constantly don't put their dogs on leashes, and that's the cause of it," said Hall.
The 500-plus-acre park has been closed since Wednesday. A trap was put out to try to catch the aggressive bear. Officials will evaluate whether to safely reopen the park next week.
"There is wildlife in the park, particularly bears. We are in bear country," said Kovacevic. "Never feed a bear, never approach a bear. Definitely keeping dogs on leash would go a long way to prevent future incidents."
June and July are the peak of black bear mating season, which makes it the most active time of year for bear sightings.
Morris County officials will continue monitoring the park to make sure people are not going in while it's closed.
