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 Township officials recently announced the acquisition of an 18-acre property located on Southern Blvd., commonly known as the Fenske property.
The announcement was made at the Nov. 28 township committee meeting.
According to Mayor Ashley Felice, the acquisition cost the township a total of $750,000; however, $350,000 was donated by the Morris County Open Space Trust Fund.
"After years of diligent negotiations, I am pleased to announce that Chatham Township has entered into a strategic agreement to acquire the approximate 18 acres of land… The acquisition of the Fenske property has been a long-term goal for our community, and tonight we will be introducing two ordinances to finalize the preservation of this property," Felice said.
The Fenske property, located at 422 Southern Boulevard, is next to Nash Field and the Great Swamp, making it an important piece of land for conserving open space in the township.
"This strategic move aligns with our ongoing efforts to enhance the quality of life for current and future generations. By acquiring this property, we are not only securing a valuable green space but also fortifying our commitment to environmental conservation," Felice said. "The proximity to Nash Field and the Great Swamp makes this acquisition a pivotal piece of our community's green infrastructure, providing environmental preservation, supporting biodiversity, and maintaining the scenic beauty that defines Chatham Township."
Some concerns were raised over the use of a bond ordinance to help pay for the acquisition; however, Chatham Township's administrator, Zaid Shehady, explained that the bond was simply a precaution.
"We are not planning to bond anything. However, we don't have all of this cash right now to authorize it because of a cash flow issue, but we are finishing up with this year, and by the time we enter into 2024, which is when we expect the closing to happen, we don't have those funds right now in order to actually appropriate them. This guarantees that we will have that money, but come April or May, whenever we get to closing, we should have that cash flow starting to come in," Shehady said.
Funding for Morris County open space acquisitions and preservation comes from the voter-approved Morris County Open Space & Farmland Preservation Trust Fund, which is generated by a special county tax.
The funding source is also used for farmland and historic preservation, county parkland acquisition, trail development and the purchase of residential properties prone to flooding.
Since 1994, the Morris County Open Space Program has preserved more than 17,800 acres – which is larger than the Township of Parsippany-Troy Hills – with approximately $295 million generated by the county preservation tax approved overwhelmingly by voters in November 1992.
The public will have the opportunity to comment on the ordinances at the Dec. 12 township committee meeting.

CHATHAM, NJ — Have you ever wondered how affordable it is to have a home near Chatham?
According to a new report released this week, the average American household spends $24,557 per year on the most important household bills, but the average Chatham resident spends significantly more.
As the cost of living in the United States continues to rise, residents of Hawaii, California, New Jersey, Massachusetts, and Maryland may be feeling more pressure, as these states top the list of the most expensive.
Morris County is the most expensive county in New Jersey, according to doxo's 2023 State by State Bill Pay Market Report, which examines the $3.87 trillion U.S. consumer bill pay market.
The report, which reflects actual bill payment activity in more than 97 percent of U.S. zip codes, identifies the most and least expensive states for Americans to live in based on average monthly spending on actual household bill payments.
According to the report, Chatham's annual bills are $18,714 higher than the national average, totaling $43,271 per year and $3,606 per month.
"Household expenses in Chatham, New Jersey, are 76.2 percent more than the U.S. average," the report states.
Chatham is the seventh most expensive town in New Jersey and the most expensive in Morris County, trailed by Madison, Randolph and Morristown.
One of the main contributors is Chatham's mortgage and rent prices. According to the study, the average mortgage payment in Chatham is $3,821, while the national average is $1,321. For renters, that price goes down to $2,054 in Chatham and $1,191 nationally.
Utility Bills are one of the few categories in Chatham that are lower than in other areas. The average Chatham resident pays $309 a month in utilities, compared to $351 nationally.
"As consumers navigate their household bills in today’s volatile marketplace, bill payers may feel left in the dark, not fully understanding how much they are truly paying each month," said Liz Powell, Senior Director of INSIGHTS at doxo.
Earlier this year, the National Low Income Housing Coalition released its annual report on rental costs, showing that many Americans make less than their area's "housing wage, the hourly, full-time wage needed to afford fair-market rent without spending more than 30 percent of their income.
According to the NLIHC, New Jersey has one of the highest minimum wages in the country, at $14.13 per hour.
However, Chatham's market rate for a two-bedroom apartment is $2,380 per month, which would necessitate an hourly wage of $45.77, which amounts to approximately $91,540 per year.
According to the NLIHC, 26 percent of tenant households in New Jersey earn less than what is required to afford two-bedroom rent. According to the report, even affording a "modest" one-bedroom apartment at market rate necessitates 79 minimum-wage hours per week.

CHATHAM, NJ — Construction on the 245-unit luxury apartment complex in Chatham Borough has been officially completed, according to developer BNE Real Estate Group.
Municipal officials and other local dignitaries joined principals from BNE Real Estate Group on Tuesday to officially open The Ivy, a brand-new rental community that delivers a sophisticated residential lifestyle to the historic and charming borough.
A ceremonial ribbon cutting signaled the launch of leasing at the new community, which is located at 2 River Road, just minutes away from Chatham’s vibrant downtown and train station.
The Ivy was initially approved by the borough in 2021 and has since been marketed as a luxury apartment complex with a mixture of 37 affordable housing units.
A variety of one- and two-bedroom floor plans will be available, with select premium homes offering additional den space. Upscale finishes and appointments include 9’ to 11’11” ceilings, luxury plank flooring, and designer kitchens with quartz countertops, polished tile backsplashes, stainless steel appliances, wine refrigerators and gas ranges.
The homes are offered at monthly rents starting at $3,300, and immediate occupancy is available.
“From the very inception of this development in this exceptional Chatham location, BNE set out to surpass all expectations. Today, as we stand in this remarkable building, I am confident that we have achieved just that,” said Jonathan Schwartz, Partner at BNE Real Estate Group.
“We have collaborated with top talent partners and customized every element to ensure that The Ivy will not only offer an unparalleled residential experience but will also serve as a symbol of elegance, sophistication, and a commitment to enhancing the traditions of this well-established community,” Schwartz continued.
At The Ivy, multi-seasonal amenity spaces have been designed to blur the boundaries between indoor and outdoor living, officials said.
Residents can enjoy a convenient lifestyle with access to a 24-hour concierge, a dynamic co-working space with private offices, a resident coffee bar, a smart vending café, and complimentary shuttle service to the adjacent train station.
Outdoors, residents can enjoy 18,000 square feet of "paradise" spanning three courtyards and featuring a refreshing swimming pool, private cabanas, firepits, private BBQ dining areas, an outdoor movie lawn, and a covered outdoor lounge designed for year-round enjoyment.
“Today marks a significant milestone for Chatham as we welcome The Ivy, a distinguished addition to our residential landscape,” said Chatham Mayor Thaddeus Kobylarz. “This sophisticated rental community not only reflects the appeal of our borough but also symbolizes a commitment to elevating the living experience for our residents."
The project is being funded through a Payment in Lieu of Taxes (PILOT) deal adopted via ordinance by the Borough of Chatham Council. Chatham Borough Council member Jocelyn Mathiasen previously stated that the financial agreement will generate $49 million in revenue.
PILOT agreements, also known as municipal tax abatements, are deals that enable a developer to switch their standard tax payments for a property to a fixed, yearly payment to the municipality.
Some municipal officials have called them useful tools to attract development to distressed or blighted areas of town. But their use has drawn criticism from opponents, some of whom caution that the deals can enable a big developer to skip out on paying their fair portion of property taxes.
When the project was first approved, one of the main concerns was its influence on the local school district. Jill Critchley Weber, President of the Chatham Board of Education, has stated that the school district planned to explore sharing the PILOT cash from the River Road development with members of the borough council.
Neither the borough nor the school district have issued an official statement or provided an update on the potential negotiations between the two entities.
For more information on The Ivy and to schedule a private visit to tour the property’s furnished model homes and amenities, visit www.TheIvyChatham.com or call (973) 635-215.
"BNE Real Estate Group has been an outstanding partner throughout this journey, delivering an exceptional new purpose for a previously underutilized property. We look forward to the positive impact this development will have on our town," Kobylarz said.

A parent filed the appeal more than a month after a federal judge in New Jersey sided with the School District of the Chathams.CHATHAM, NJ — A lawsuit filed by a mother against the School District of the Chathams, alleging that the seventh-grade social studies curriculum was a "direct call" to students to convert to Islam, has been appealed again.At the board of education meeting on Monday, Chatham Board of Education president Jill Critchley Weber notified the public that Libby Hilsenrath had once again filed ...
CHATHAM, NJ — A lawsuit filed by a mother against the School District of the Chathams, alleging that the seventh-grade social studies curriculum was a "direct call" to students to convert to Islam, has been appealed again.
At the board of education meeting on Monday, Chatham Board of Education president Jill Critchley Weber notified the public that Libby Hilsenrath had once again filed for an appeal, making it the fourth round of litigation that the school district has gone through.
The original lawsuit was dismissed in 2020, nearly four years after Hilsenrath objected to the Islam-focused lessons at a board meeting and then took her complaints to a national audience on Fox News.
United States Circuit Judges Thomas Hardiman and Paul Brian Matey and Chief Circuit Judge Michael A. Chagares reopened the case on July 20 in the United States Court of Appeals, claiming that summary judgment is appropriate in the original lawsuit.
The decision was made in response to the Supreme Court decision in Kennedy v. Bremerton School District, Chagares said. "We hereby vacate the District Court’s judgment entered on November 12, 2020, and remand this case to the District Court for further consideration in light of the Supreme Court’s opinion."
However, on Oct. 16, U.S. District Judge Kevin McNulty once again dismissed Hilsenrath's complaint, noting that there was "no evidence of significant coercion."
In her complaint, Hilsenrath claimed that during the 2016-17 school year, her son was required to view materials and complete assignments in his World Cultures and Geography class that contained religious teachings about Islam — presented as "facts" rather than beliefs.
The lawsuit focused on two YouTube videos as part of the materials. Hilsenrath claimed one of the videos, "5 minutes introduction to Islam," was a "conversion video, replete with biased, chastising statements." She also claimed a video called "The 5 Pillars of Islam" shows a Muslim child trying to convert a non-Muslim child. The cartoon was made to "purposely appeal to those of an impressible age," Hilsenrath said.
However, according to the court opinion, in his deposition, Hilsenrath's son testified that he did not remember much about this video and did not recall feeling coerced.
Members of the board previously performed research to establish how much the insurance-covered litigation is costing the school. Weber claims that the action has cost more than $2 million in legal fees.
Weber previously estimated that the district had spent between $80,000 and $90,000 on uninsured legal bills since 2018.
"The lawyers are making a ton of money off this and her law firm is doing this free of charge and they're out in Michigan, so they couldn't care less about the impact on the residents on Chatham, they are using it for publicity and they're going to keep going," Weber said. "The real losers are the residents and the students that are paying for it. It draws resources away from the district and despite having already lost previous rounds on summary judgment, meaning that it was so baseless that they could not even move on to a trial phase, Mrs. Hilsenrath is pursuing a fourth round of litigation," she added.
Hilsenrath has sued the district, the Board of Education, Superintendent Michael LaSusa, Assistant Superintendent of Curriculum and Instruction Karen Chase, Chatham Middle School Principal Jill Gihorski, the school's social studies supervisor, and two teachers, among others.

CHATHAM, NJ — The Chatham Borough Zoning Board hearing for the application looking to convert an existing auto repair shop into a Tiger Mart convenience store has been rescheduled for the third time.
The application was initially meant to be heard by the zoning board back in July but was then pushed back until Aug. 23, then to Sept. 27, and now finally to Oct. 25. The zoning board had previously explained that the setback was necessary to allow the Historic Preservation Commission to provide its feedback.
However, the commission unanimously voted on Sept. 19 to "not recommend" the design plan to the borough's zoning board, which is scheduled to review the application at the end of September.
The Exxon gas station is located at 185 Main Street, at the corner of Hillside Avenue.
According to application records, the applicant, Danny Realty LLC, plans to modify the existing auto repair shop on the property by replacing the inside with a convenience store and building additional lighting and landscape improvements.
According to the site designs, the retail area would be 2,400 square feet and would include a sales section, a back office, and a restroom.
The application also suggests that the old signpost be replaced with a more modern and elegant freestanding sign, as well as that extra lighting components be installed.
The proposed monument sign was one of the objections that the Historic Preservation Commission had to the proposal.
"It is HPC’s opinion that the scale and graphics presented are not appropriate for the Historic District. Internally illuminated signs are not permitted in Chatham Borough ordinances," a Historic Preservation Commission report stated.
Since the proposal was first announced, some homeowners have raised concerns about the possible increase in lights and traffic that the convenience store could bring to the neighborhood.
Others have expressed concern about the possibility of extended business hours.
The Chatham Zoning Board will meet on Oct. 25 at 7:30 p.m.
