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.

LIVINGSTON, NJ — Two Livingston teens were recently honored by the township mayor and council for achieving the rank of Eagle Scout, which is the highest level of achievement in scouting through the Boy Scouts of America (BSA) program.
Zach Turbin of Boy Scout Troop 8 in Chatham and Evan Leung of Troop 12 in Livingston were each presented with an official citation from the township recognizing them for receiving an honor “that many young men aspire to, but few achieve.”
“I know that one day you will be one of the great volunteer leaders that this town is so fortunate to have,” said Mayor Ed Meinhardt. “I know that all these boys who work so hard take pride in that, and I think whatever town you settle in, I think one day you will become one of those volunteer leaders as well.”
Turbin explained that his determination to achieve the rank of Eagle Scout led him to join a troop in Chatham so that he could also have time to pursue his other passion. In addition to scouting, Turbin also plays club hockey in Chatham and currently serves as the goalie of the Livingston High School (LHS) varsity ice hockey team, which made it to the state finals during Turbin’s 2021-2022 season.
“Scouting has been awesome for me,” said Turbin. “I started when I was a Cub Scout, and my earliest memories with PAC 16, I just remember camping and having a good time with my friends. Then I started playing hockey, and my schedule was very busy.
“Practices were, I remember, Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays; and on Mondays, that was conflicting with the Livingston Troop meetings. But I didn't want to give up Scouting because I loved it so much, so I was talking to my dad and my mom, and we found out that Troop 8 out of Chatham had [meetings that worked with] my schedule. So I switched to that in order to be able to continue and had a really, really great scouting experience.”
Leung also spoke positively about his experience with the Livingston troop, saying that his family and the community at-large all contributed to his success.
“It has taken me around 18-plus months and a lot of years to get to where I am now,” he said. “If it wasn't for my family and my dad, I wouldn't have been here right now standing here, and everyone here has motivated me.”
According to BSA, only about 4 percent of Boy Scouts have earned the rank of Eagle Scout, which comes only after a lengthy review process and several requirements that include receiving at least 21 merit badges, an extensive community service project and more.
The Boy Scouts in attendance during the presentation also led the crowd in the Pledge of Allegiance and flag ceremony.

CHESTER, NJ — The Chester Township Council intends to discuss a resolution opposing proposed rate increases to state health benefits under proposals under consideration by the State Health Benefits Commission during its council meeting on Aug. 16.
Under the new proposals, hundreds of thousands of public employees, early retirees, and school employees in New Jersey could face rate increases of up to 24 percent for health benefits.
According to John Donnadio, Executive Director of the New Jersey Association of Counties, rate increases being considered include a 24 percent increase in medical and a 3.7 percent increase in pharmacy benefits for active public workers, as well as a 15.6 percent increase in medical and a 26.1 percent increase in pharmacy benefits for public workers who retired before the age of 65.
Chester Township officials plan to review and discuss a possible resolution opposing the state's new proposal, possibly drawing inspiration from neighboring towns such as Chatham Township, which recently created their own resolution.
According to a sample resolution, such proposed exorbitant rate increases will fall on local property taxpayers as well as local public employees at a time of record inflation; and the proposed premium increase for most active employees will take thousands more out of their paychecks annually and lead to huge costs for local governments, resulting in higher property tax bills for struggling families.
While double-digit increases in the state health care plan are problematic and unsustainable, increases in the NJ School Employees’ Health Benefits Program (NJEHP) are especially concerning for local school boards.
According to the New Jersey School Board Association, employees enrolled in Chapter 44 pay a percentage of their salary toward their health care, rather than a percentage of the premium, as was the case with Chapter 78. As a result, employers will bear nearly all of the costs associated with any increase in NJEHP premiums.
“NJSBA believes that the proposed premium increases are unacceptable and must be rejected,” said Dr. Timothy Purnell, executive director of NJSBA. “Should they go through as is, districts will be forced to make incredibly difficult budgetary decisions that could result in cuts to critical educational programming, services and staff. At a time of record inflation, every action must be taken to bring the premium adjustments down to a more acceptable level.”
The increases were scheduled to be approved by state health boards on July 25, but the vote was postponed due to public outrage from local governments, labor leaders and state lawmakers from both parties.
A new date for the meeting has yet to be set.
Members of the Chester Township Council intend to discuss this issue at the Aug. 16 Council Meeting, which is set to begin at 7 p.m. To view the full agenda, click here.

CHATHAM, NJ -- The way Larry McCann sees it, he's been piling up the experience for his new job as Chatham Township Recreation Director since he was a teenager.
"My first job as a 14-year-old was organizing, coaching and refereeing an urban basketball league with Mike Dunleavy Sr.," McCann said. "Mike went on to play in the NBA, coached the LA Lakers and became the general manager of the Los Angeles Clippers.
"He asked me one day, do you want to help me out with this league and I said absolutely. It's funny, everything I've done from that day forward has been about recreation."
Professionally, McCann has been CPA with a Master's in Finance, while keeping his sports ties as a basketball travel team coach for St. Pat's and Corpus Christi. He also refereed travel league games for years after his coaching ended.
The Brooklyn native has been a resident of Chatham for 32 years and all three of his daughters - Tara, Caroline and Jen - played sports offered through the recreation program.
"My kids all had great experiences through the recreation program and some of their best friends today are the ones they grew up playing sports with," McCann said. "I'm looking forward to giving back to Chatham what my kids got here."
McCann will be the first Chatham Township Recreation Director in more than seven years. He will be paid a salary of $79,500.
Chatham Borough Rec Director Carol Nauta has served as the program director for both towns since 2016. The Chatham Township Committee voted, 3-2, in May to return to the separate rec director setup.
"I've known Carol Nauta for years and when it comes to the kids, I don't think there is a borough and township," McCann said. "Carol Nauta has been doing schedules for years and years. From my perspective, there will not be two sets of schedules. There can't be.
"It really is a clean slate. I'll be working with the Joint Rec Advisory Committee and Carol and working with the heads of the club sports. I look at myself as a facilitator. The one big thing I'd like to do is to be out there when the games are being played. I love going to games. I'll talk to the parents and find out what their needs are.
"We have great recreation programs here. I look at it as a perfect opportunity for me - a combination of my business background and my recreation experience - to be able to give back to Chatham. I want to work with the parents and the kids to learn what we can do better with the existing programs or find out if there are programs we can create."
McCann teamed up with parents Andy Gyves and Mark Howard Johnson to start what is now the successful Chatham High girls golf program.
"I grew up in Brooklyn and everything was spontaneous," McCann said. "You'd walk out your front door and there would be a basketball, baseball or football game to play. Maybe there is a concept of an organized pickup game. We do a great job with organized sports, but what about that time between the organized games? Maybe we can fill in those gaps."
McCann is closing out his first season as the pool manager of the Colony Pool and will concentrate on his recreation duties once the pool closes.
Grass quality, an issue with ground wasps and repairs needed for tennis court surfaces, were among the committee's discussion.CHATHAM, NJ — The Chatham Township Committee engaged in a discussion about the maintenance of township fields at its meeting on Tuesday, with one committee member stating there were some “serious field issues” that need to be addressed.Mayor Ashley Felice said that residents have approached her many times to tell her the township’s fields are not being adequately maintained....
CHATHAM, NJ — The Chatham Township Committee engaged in a discussion about the maintenance of township fields at its meeting on Tuesday, with one committee member stating there were some “serious field issues” that need to be addressed.
Mayor Ashley Felice said that residents have approached her many times to tell her the township’s fields are not being adequately maintained.
Committee Member Mark Lois — who is on the Chatham Recreation Joint Advisory Committee — said that he has received calls about the quality of the grass at Nash Field, causing difficulties with how baseballs roll.
He said that Esternay Field was also closed for the entire fall season because of quality issues.
“We have some serious field issues,” Lois said.
Lois showed photos of some of the fields as well as tennis courts, during the meeting, which he described as “significant situations.”
He said the baseball diamond at Mountainview field has been plagued with a nest of ground wasps living in the dirt. He also said the diamond is not in good condition.
Lois showed photos of the Colony Recreation Center tennis courts, which had cracking on the surfaces of several of the courts. He said those courts should be patched, filled and repainted. All but two of the courts are prioritized for Colony members, he said.
He showed a photo of Esternay field, with a gate down and padlocked at the entrance. He said it has been closed at times for a season because of field conditions, as well as for safety issues.
Lois also had a photo of the Southern Boulevard School field and said the township should also encourage the School District of the Chathams to adequately maintain its fields.
“They [the fields] should be in reasonable condition,” said Lois.
Felice said she has spoken to the Department of Public Works and other groups to ask what can be done to improve the municipal recreational properties.
“I believe that this is the greatest township in New Jersey and we have the residents that are unparalleled,” said Lois. “I think if we can build consensus that something needs to be done, that we can do it.”
He suggested the Township Committee needs to build an agenda to address the issues.
Administrator Robert Hoffmann said the township is exploring pricing for netting to turn the fields into multi-use fields, for lacrosse, soccer and other youth sports programs. Hoffmann said some groups do not want to use the fields, because of the loss of balls during practices or games.
He also addressed the ground wasps and said programs should schedule around the period of time that the wasps are on the field, as a temporary solution, when the wasps are not on the field in the late summer and in the fall.
“I don’t think it’s reasonable to ask our residents to change their schedule of when they want to do sports around a breeding period of ground-nesting wasps,” Felice said.
Hoffmann complimented the DPW’s work on the new split rail fencing at Esternay field.
Lois suggested that fields should begin being fertilized in March to prepare them.
Hoffmann said the tennis courts should be prioritized in 2022, which he said should be moved on “in a quick manner.”
Committee Member Stacy Ewald said the tennis court repairs were a capital project in 2022.
Ewald suggested a broad future discussion about the facilities. Felice said the planning board will be working on a mini master plan about open space and recreation.
