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 – 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.
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 Township has been awarded $375K in state funds from the New Jersey Department of Transportation (NJDOT) as part of the Local Aid Infrastructure Fund.
The Chatham Township Pedestrian Safety and ADA Improvement Project aims to improve pedestrian safety by upgrading existing crosswalks. The grant will allow the township to continue work on the remaining crosswalks that are not already funded as part of a larger project.
"Safety and accessibility remain top priorities for Chatham Township. This Project demonstrates our continued commitment to ensuring that our streets and sidewalks are safe and accessible for everyone," Mayor Ashley Felice said.
The grant money was approved for 13 crosswalks on Fairmount Avenue between Runnymede Road and Nicholson Drive.
Additionally, two crosswalk upgrades are planned for the intersection of Mountainview Road and Meyersville Road, as well as two more for crossing River Road—one at each intersection with Henry Drive and Mountainside Drive.
Fairmount Avenue, Meyersville Road, and River Road are major thoroughfares in the township and see heavy traffic.
The project's main efforts include upgrading the crosswalk curb ramps to meet ADA standards, installing detectable warning surfaces, associated turning space, restriping of crosswalks, installing new concrete curbs, and restoring surrounding road, sidewalk and lawn areas.
"We are targeting completion of this project before Chatham Schools re-open in September. I commend our staff on their efforts to seek out grant funds to offset the rising costs of infrastructure improvements and minimizing the burden on taxpayers," Felice said.
Last year, township officials also announced that new safety improvements to a section of Shunpike Road will be added soon to help all Chatham Township school-aged children safely walk from the Lafayette and Washington Avenue Elementary schools.
That project is being funded by the New Jersey Safe Routes to School program, a federally funded reimbursement program that aims to enable and encourage children to walk and bike to school.
Construction work will be done during the day and will be done one block at a time, east to west. All roadways are also expected to remain open, and no road detours are currently planned.
The anticipated project timeline calls for construction likely to begin during the summer when school is not in session.

CHATHAM, NJ — Earlier this year, a long-standing building in Chatham Township was torn down as part of a new housing construction project approved by the township committee two years ago.
The sale of 522 Southern Boulevard, also known as Charlie Brown's property, was agreed upon by Chatham Township and the property owner, Kronos Holdings, LLC, in 2021.
What was previously the restaurant site will soon be transformed into affordable housing units as part of the township's third-round element of affordable housing, which it agreed to in December 2018 in litigation with the Fair Share Housing Center.
This week, it was announced that Walters, an award-winning developer based in Barnegat, has broken ground on that project, now dubbed "Cornerstone at Chatham," a 63-unit premium income-restricted apartment community.
Walters currently projects the new development to be ready for occupancy beginning in late spring 2024, however, completion of the entire property is slated for the fourth quarter of 2024.
“Residents will enjoy modern features and amenities while living in the historic and quaint small town of Chatham,” said Joseph Del Duca, partner and director of Affordable Housing for Walters.
Because there is limited developable land in Chatham, the three-building community is being built on a 3.2-acre site that was previously occupied by Charlie Brown's Fresh Grill.
Due to its central location, future residents will have easy access to jobs, shopping, and recreational amenities. Chatham Mall and Hickory Square Shopping Center are both within walking distance, as are the municipally owned Nash Park and Shunpike Field.
The housing project is being built thanks to a unique funding partnership between Walters and Chatham Township. As a result, Walters received an extremely competitive 9 percent Low-Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC).
According to Del Duca, the town provided the land as well as funding support, including a planned shuttle bus service to the nearby NJ Transit rail station.
The three-building community will feature a mix of one-, two-, and three-bedroom units ranging in size from 807 to 1,343 square feet. Parking will also be available for residents.
Cornerstone at Chatham is being built to meet green building certification, allowing residents to benefit from sustainable, efficient, and resilient housing. There will also be a fitness center, a community room, and an outdoor patio and clubhouse with seating, tables, and gas grills.
On request, a social services coordinator will be on hand, Walters representatives said.
The future apartments will be available to people earning 60 percent or less of the area's median income, officials said.
Another redevelopment project, which will add 245 new homes to the Chatham community, also recently broke ground.
The site plan, now dubbed "The Ivy of Chatham," was initially approved by the borough in 2021 and has been marketed as a luxury apartment complex with a mixture of 37 affordable housing units.

“All of the towns (and quaint cities) on this list have something special,” writes author Rose Marie Walano.
The article rates Chatham No. 8 in its Top 10 and says it "makes you feel like you've stepped into a Norman Rockwell painting. Its lantern-lined Main Street is charming, to say the least.
I wonder what Country Living would say if they knew the Zoning Board was seriously considering the approval of a convenience store - possibly open 24/7 right in the middle of the Downtown Historic District of our sweet small town. I think they’d be disappointed and I think there’s a lot of us that will be disappointed if the variance and plans are approved.
The location of this convenience store would be within the Exxon station which is situated on the corner of Main Street and Hillside Avenue. This location is at a very busy and congested intersection with a convoluted four-way traffic pattern and traffic lights. And in my opinion, the increase in traffic that the convenience store generates would be dangerous for pedestrians and vehicles alike.
Let’s resist the “progressive” approach that many of our New Jersey towns are embracing at present and keep our beautiful small town as close to “sweet” as we possibly can.
Mark your calendars and plan to be present at the following meetings at Borough Hall, 54 Fairmount Avenue.
Zoning Board meeting on August 23.
Historical Preservation Commission meeting on September 19.
Zoning Board meeting on September 27 (Final Remarks before Decision).
Voice your concerns and share your thoughts.
And…if you feel as I do, just say NO to giving our sweet small Chatham town that big urban feeling.
Thank you,
Joyce Martinsen

CHATHAM, NJ — The Chatham Township Food Truck and Music Festival, which was scheduled to take place on Saturday, has been canceled.
The event organizers announced the cancelation of the event this week, as forecasters are predicting stormy weather across New Jersey.
Meteorologists have predicted a dreary day around New Jersey on Saturday, with an approaching cold front knocking down temperatures and bringing showers, possibly with lightning and a few thunderstorms.
Tropical Storm Philippe could add moisture to the bands of heavy downpours predicted across parts of the Garden State, according to AccuWeather forecasters.
“By far, the most far-reaching impact from Philippe will be its drenching rainfall,” said AccuWeather on Friday.
The festival was meant to be held from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. at the Colony Pool Club, located at 55 School Avenue, Chatham, and served as a benefit for Chatham Township PBA 170.
In general, this weekend is not expected to be a "washout," forecasters said on social media. But most residents can expect rain at some point.
Here is the weekend forecast:
Friday: A chance of showers. Cloudy, with a high near 72. Southeast wind 5 to 10 mph. The chance of precipitation is 40 percent. New precipitation amounts of less than a tenth of an inch are possible.
Friday Night: Showers. Patchy fog after 11 p.m. Low around 62. Southeast wind around 5 mph. The chance of precipitation is 80 percent. New precipitation amounts to between a quarter and half of an inch.
Saturday: Showers and possibly a thunderstorm, mainly before 5 p.m., then a chance of showers and thunderstorms after 5 p.m. High near 69. South wind 5 to 15 mph becoming northwest in the morning. The chance of precipitation is 90 percent. New rainfall amounts to between a quarter and half of an inch.
Saturday Night: A chance of showers, mainly before 11 p.m. Mostly cloudy, then gradually becoming mostly clear, with a low around 48. Northwest wind around 15 mph. The chance of precipitation is 30 percent. New precipitation amounts of less than a tenth of an inch possible.
Sunday: Mostly sunny, with a high near 59. West wind around 15 mph, with gusts as high as 30 mph.
