Here at Denville Medical, our commitment is to you and your health. We are committed to improving your quality of life by effective treatment and therapy, catered specifically to your needs. Unlike some of our competition, we take a team approach to your treatment plan working together as a unit to provide the best possible care for our patients.
It's easy to start your healing journey at Denville Medical. It all starts when you contact our office to make an appointment. From there, we set you on a course to recovery through a three-step process:
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.

CHATHAM, NJ — Chatham Borough will phase out its current "Green Bag" waste collection system in favor of a new automated system at the start of next year, with the first phase of the transition commencing this week.
The new carts will be delivered to all residents throughout the week, beginning the week of Dec. 11, and will be dropped off at houses throughout the whole week. The municipality will also provide literature with extra information about the new program with the bins.
Starting on Jan. 1, 2024, an automated system in which a mechanical "one-armed bandit" will empty brand-new garbage bins rather than the borough's current green bags.
Since the announcement last year, several residents have spoken out, questioning the decision to transition from the current trash collection system, which is based on "pay as you throw," to an automated system in which a mechanical arm would empty bins into the garbage truck.
Once residents receive their new bins, they can begin using the new carts immediately, but until Dec. 31, they will need green bags in them, officials said.
The financial impact of the shift on the borough's residents was a major source of concern. A worry that officials say is unfounded because the switch will save most borough residents money.
The annual solid waste bill was $374 this year, plus the cost of green bags, a significant increase from the previous year. "Our vendor costs have gone up by more than 70 percent. This is a problem everywhere. It's absolutely crazy right now," Council member Jocelyn Mathiasen said previously.
It is estimated that if the borough had kept the green bag program, the prices would have risen further.
"This program will cost less for the Borough and residents than continuing the green bags program. The new rates replace both your annual solid waste bill and the cost of green bags," the borough said.
Under the new system, a 65-gallon garbage bin would cost $482, versus $564 with green bags. The smallest bin, which holds 35 gallons, would cost $259 instead of $374. There is also a 95-gallon bin, which is suitable for large families and costs $704.
Here is the new schedule, which will go into effect in January:
Monthly bulk waste collection will continue as normal, officials said.
In the event of an occasional surplus of trash, residents will be allowed to place a bag labeled "excess trash" next to their container. The stickers are $3 at Borough Hall and will cover one large (up to a 40-gallon) bag. Residents will be permitted to use the stickers three times per year; if they require more, they must upgrade their cart, officials said.

CHATHAM, NJ -- A group of Lum Avenue residents made the short walk over to the municipal building on Monday night to petition the mayor and Borough of Chatham Council about the overflow parking problem caused by the employees of ECLC School that they say has escalated and become "unbearable."
The residents, who are part of the Central Borough Neighborhood Association, detailed the daily woes they have experienced over the past five years with cars blocking their driveways and making them late for work; idling cars in front of their driveways; all-day parking in front of their homes when the parking limit is two hours, and construction workers parking on lawns because of lack of parking spaces.
According to Andrew Zagoren, a Lum Avenue resident, the parking problems have continued to increase over the last three years. He spoke for the group during the public comment portion of regular meeting of the Borough of Chatham Council on Monday night (see below).

Zagoren is the landlord of commercial property in Metuchen and noted that when it comes to tenants, the landlord has to know, "when to say no."
Janice Perrone, head of the Central Borough Neighborhood Association, spoke up for equal treatment for all Borough residents, noting that "...every street in the borough will be susceptible to this kind of all-day parking if the Borough allows for residential areas to be used as overflow parking lots." See her comments below.
Lum Avenue resident Tom Korkuch expressed his concerns for safety on the street with the low visibility caused by the number of cars parked on the street (see below).
Chatham Borough Mayor Carolyn Dempsey thanked the residents for coming to the meeting and acknowledged their frustration. She said that ECLC's needs have changed over the years with more one-on-one instruction. She said she has opened dialogue with ECLC administrators to resolve the problem (see her remarks below).
Chatham resident Michael Dean offered a solution for the overflow ECLC parking, noting that he counted 131 vacant spaces at 11:30 a.m. on Monday at the Chatham Train Station parking lot, which is located adjacent to ECLC School. Mayor Dempsey did not rule that out as a possible solution when asked about it after the meeting, although she said that the open spaces vary throughout the week.

CHATHAM, NJ -- The Borough of Chatham Council unanimously introduced an ordinance at its regular meeting Tuesday night that will give residents 180 days to register with the borough and show proof that it does not have a lead or galvanized water pipe servicing their home.
The state mandated that municipalities comply by replacing lead or galvanized pipes over a span of 10 years when it passed the law about two years ago.
Steven Kleinman, Chatham Borough attorney, explains how the ordinance, which will be up for adoption on Oct. 23, will work in the video below.

The ordinance reads, in part: It is hereby established that lead service lines are prohibited in the Borough of Chatham and any existing lead service lines are required to be replaced under the procedures established by New Jersey law and the Borough Code.
The full ordinance can be read HERE:
Chatham Borough sent out a letter to all borough residents over the summer, explaining how to determine if you have a lead pipe servicing water to your home. Council member Jocelyn Mathiasen talks about the process that led up to the introduction of the ordinance in the video below.
The Chatham Borough Department of Public Works has been collecting the information sent in by residents and will check any resident's pipes, free of charge.
Information on the lead pipe replacement program can be found on the borough website.
The owner of a dwelling, building, or structure shall replace a lead service line by either of the following methods:
1. Registering for the Borough’s Lead Service Line Replacement Program within one hundred and eighty (180) days after the effective date of this Ordinance and authorizing the Borough’s designated contractor access to the subject property to conduct the replacement. The owner shall execute any necessary documents supplied by the Borough and/or its contractor allowing for access to the subject property in order to verify whether a lead service line is present on the property, under such terms and conditions as the Borough may determine. If the service line is found to be lead or galvanized, the Borough will replace the service line and the owner will be assessed the cost of the replacement of the lead or galvanized service line. The cost of such replacement will be paid by the owner to the Borough either at one time, or over a period not to exceed five (5) years pursuant to N.J.S.A. 40:56- 35, with legal interest thereon waived by the Borough.
2. Replacing the lead service line using the owner’s selected contractor. If an owner selects this option, then replacement must be completed within 180 days of the effective date of this Article. An extension of time may be granted at the Borough’s discretion if the owner can demonstrate, to the satisfaction of the Borough’s designee, that a good-faith effort has been made to comply with this Article. Upon replacement of the lead service line, the owner must provide the Borough with sufficient proof that the work has been successfully completed. Proof shall include all of the following minimum documentation: (i) a permit issued by the Borough to a licensed plumber authorized to perform the replacement; (ii) an invoice from the contractor who completed the replacement; and (iii) an inspection report by a licensed plumbing inspector confirming the replacement has been completed in accordance with all applicable codes and standards.
In related news, the council passed a resolution awarding a contract not to exceed $500,000 to Shaugher Property Services for the lead line service replacement program.
Yield Sign to Stop Sign at Myrtle and Minton
The council introduced an ordinance that will replace the yield sign on Myrtle Avenue, where it intersects with Minton Avenue, with a stop sign. The ordinance will be up for adoption on Oct. 23.
Colleen Truppo, chair of the Chatham Shade Tree Commission, reported that it will be planting 70 trees of varying species in the 37 locations determined by an Arborist as the sites most in need of trees. Truppo said that residents would be receiving a letter if a tree is to be planted in the vicinity of their property. Chatham Borough has maintained its status as a "Tree City" for the past 20 years. The designation has to be renewed every year.
Grand Opening of the Stanley Center
Council member Carolyn Dempsey announced that Oct. 29th will be the date of the "Grand Opening" of the Stanley Center. Residents are welcome to attend, but, because of limited space are asked to secure free tickets ahead of the event.
Train Station Annual Parking Pass Going Up $50
Council member Jocelyn Mathiasen said that the annual parking pass for the train station will be raised $50 in the 2024 budget. She said that there is still a high demand for the spaces, even though a number of them are not used on a regular basis.

CHATHAM, NJ -- The Chatham Borough Volunteer Fire Department is marking its 125th anniversary and CBVFD has been around since before President Woodrow Wilson proclaimed Oct. 9, 1920, as Fire Prevention Day.
The Chatham Borough Volunteer Fire Department held an open house on Saturday as part of its annual Fire Prevention Week.
Chatham Borough Fire Chief Peter Glogolich was on hand to show off the equipment and explain the latest firefighting tools, including the "F-500" Encapsulator Agent which is the only thing known to put out lithium-ion batteries that are used in electric vehicles.

Chief Glogolich explains in the video below how the "F-500" liquid can contain a fire, absorb the heat and lower the temperature from 1100 degrees to 90 in 30 seconds. Fortunately, it hasn't been needed for a real fire yet, only test demonstrations.
The theme for this year's Fire Prevention Week is Kitchen Safety and Glogolich said: "It's good for the parents to know if you have a grease fire, not to panic. Just put a lid on it or a pot that is just a little bigger than it on top and the fire goes right out."
A 43-year member of the Chatham Borough Volunteer Fire Department, Gloglolich gave 9-year-old Mackenzie Hurley a personal tour and explained the tools used by firefighters, such as the heat sensor that helps find people in a smoke-filled room (see below).
