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.
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.
The cost of collection will be removed from the municipal budget and collected from residents via a separate annual bill under the new plan.CHESTER, NJ — Officials from Chester Township have moved forward with a plan to change the way that garbage collection fees are paid within the township due to rising costs.A new agreement for continued garbage collection with Blue Diamond Disposal, Inc. will be paid for by Chester Township, which will create a municipal utility as the payment method.Officials assured the pub...
CHESTER, NJ — Officials from Chester Township have moved forward with a plan to change the way that garbage collection fees are paid within the township due to rising costs.
A new agreement for continued garbage collection with Blue Diamond Disposal, Inc. will be paid for by Chester Township, which will create a municipal utility as the payment method.
Officials assured the public that garbage collection would not stop while the utility was being set up.
Blue Diamond Disposal's five-year garbage collection contract with Chester Township was set to expire at the end of December. The township prepared bid specifications for a new contract earlier this fall, which were released in November.
The bid showed a significant increase in price; the lowest quoted price among the options was approximately $924,000 per year, officials said.
This represented a significant increase over the $444,000 the town was paying per year under the previous contract and would represent a 5.4 percent tax increase.
Citing this as the reason for the switch, a review by Chester Township's third-party auditor, as well as a discussion at the Jan. 3 council meeting, pushed township officials to create a utility.
Under the current system, Blue Diamond Disposal provides both trash and recycling services to all residents in Chester Township. With the old contract, stickers were required for all trash and were sold at $16 per sheet.
According to the township, the cheapest bid option for residents included having no stickers at all, which increased the cost of the municipal budget but resulted in a lower total price.
"In this option, the amount for Chester Township to absorb in the 2023 budget is $547,000. This represents an approximate 6.16 percent tax increase which, accounting for other, state-mandated cost increases, is mathematically impossible for Chester Township to absorb under New Jersey’s appropriations cap and property tax cap," officials said.
The township has decided, under the new plan, to choose the cheapest option for residents, in which stickers are no longer required, and to pay for this through a municipal utility.
The finance department will be establishing this utility, which will serve as a permanent and dedicated source of funding for garbage collection, township officials said.
Garbage collection costs will thus be removed from the municipal budget and collected directly from residents via a separate annual bill.
The council is taking steps to solidify this decision, but it is not yet final. An official ordinance must be introduced at the Jan. 17 council meeting, with a public hearing held at a later separate meeting.

CHESTER, NJ — Mayor Marcia Asdal said her final goodbyes at the Chester Township Council meeting on Dec. 20, as it was the final meeting of the year.
Asdal has been the mayor of Chester Township for the past six years and chose not to run for reelection in the Nov. 8 election, instead opting to retire.
"There is a mantra the U.S. Navy uses to describe its priorities: Ship, Shipmate, Self. The mission of the Navy comes first, the needs of the team are next and self is at the bottom of the hierarchy. This was my guiding principle as mayor – the priority was always what was best for Chester Township as a whole," Asdal said in her farewell letter.
During the meeting, other council members chimed in about their time working with Asdal over the last few years, detailing her work ethic and high aspirations for the township.
Michael Inganamort, a sitting council member, will succeed Asdal, who is in his fifth year as President of the Chester Township Council and his fifth year on the council.
When Asdal took office in January 2017, she previously said her main goals were, "happy residents, living in a well-run, highly desirable town."
Asdal completed several accomplishments during her time as township mayor, including navigating the COVID-19 pandemic, completing several road resurfacing projects and reconstructing several recreation areas around town, among many others.
"There are many accomplishments of which I'm proud, but what brings me the most joy is the number of residents who were inspired by my leadership to volunteer their time and talents to Chester Township. Thank you to everyone who helped me preserve and protect Chester Township and prepare it for the future, one in which future generations will continue to Choose Chester," Asdal said.
Among the challenges for the coming year, new mayor-elect Inganamort says the main focus for the first half of 2023 will be addressing inflation and ensuring the municipal budget does not incur any unnecessary spikes.
"I am confident that Mayor-elect Mike Inganamort will continue the excellent leadership he's shown on the council, and I wish him much success in his new role," Asdal said.
The Chester council approved an ordinance transferring nearly $1.2 million from the Black River Fields Project to Highlands Ridge Park.

CHESTER, NJ — After hearing mixed reactions to the potential addition of turf fields to the Highlands Ridge Park project, township council members approved an ordinance providing funding for the improvements in a split vote.
In late December, the township council voted 3-2 to transfer nearly $1.2 million from the Black River Fields Project to Highlands Ridge Park.
The project was supported by then-Mayor Marcia Asdal and councilmen Tim Drag and John Butkus, while Mayor Michael Inganamort and Joseph DiPaolo voted against it.
During public comment, local resident Tom Grego argued that the council should have rejected it and instead written a new one in 2023 that called for transferring the approved funds to a more general fund. The council could then better decide what to do with the $1.2 million in the new year, across all of Chester Township, rather than just one specific park.
Grego gave the example of using some of the funds to support the new Chester Volunteer Fire Department project to build a pavilion at Chubb Park to support community events like the annual carnival and Oktoberfest.
"This is where the money should go. This is what would help the entire township," Grego said.
Di Paolo, who rejected the ordinance, echoed this statement, saying that he found the ordinance to be limiting. "I think we should be a little broader in saying if we want to proceed, we should look at Highlands and we should look at other places and not tie ourselves to one specific location."
Asdal argued that the ordinance names Highlands Ridge Park because it is the most logical location for a turf field in Chester, but that if the council wanted to broaden it, it could always be amended later.
"The advantage of Highlands is that we own it, it's not in the preservation area like the Black River Fields was across the street or where Chubb Park is. This happens to be a piece of property that has less restrictions and the rest of any open park in Chester Township, does not have those same parameters," Asdal said.
While many residents spoke out against the unknown financial and traffic burden that adding the fields could impose on the township, others spoke positively about the potential new addition.
One of the speakers in support was Gavin Wilk, an upcoming lacrosse player on the sixth-grade Mendham and Chester team.
Wilk stated that a turf field would be a significant improvement because, currently, weather conditions prevent teams from practicing on days when the field is frozen because the lacrosse season begins in early spring.
Asdal, who stated her support for a turf field, told the public that the ordinance only appropriates money for the possibility of putting a turf field in Highlands Ridge Park. Whether that is actually constructed, would be something for future councils to discuss.
"There will be many public hearings," Asdal said. "There will be many votes. There will be many decisions made. There will be much financial analysis done. There will be many studies done if future councils decide to move forward on any sort of artificial turf project on Highlands Ridge Park."

MENDHAM, NJ — The ongoing process aiming to convert a local preserved farm into a farm-based brewer has recently sparked a new round of conversation as members of the public spoke out in concern about potential environmental impacts.
Backer Farm has been seeking permission to establish a brewery operation on their property, which currently has produce and livestock. The farm's plan was initially approved by the Mendham Township Zoning Board of Adjustment last year with a 5-2 vote.
Local resident Melissa Rainis spoke before the township committee on Monday evening, requesting that the environmental committee weigh in on the environmental impacts and aspects of the application.
"The township environmental committee has weighed in on Hillandale and recently Mendham Mushrooms and Irene’s Spring Tree Farms, all of which are much smaller projects and have less impact on the environment than this brewery project," Rainis said.
The Backer Farm brewery project is currently still on the docket for the Morris County Agriculture Development Board, although the official application has not yet been heard.
After months of waiting, the Morris County Agriculture Development Board scheduled a virtual hearing on the farm's proposal for a brewery and tasting room on Aug. 11, but it was canceled.
According to Katherine Coyle, Director of the Morris County Agriculture Development Board, the reason for the delay was that the Morris County Agriculture Development Board needed time to review additional information that was submitted.
"Yes, this project is not going before the town board, like the planning board, but the environment does not care who will be negatively impacting it. This will be on the land of our township, and we ask you to defend it and protect it as needed from this commercial development," Rainis said.
Following her remark, resident George Koenig expressed similar sentiments, stating that a project like the brewery would typically have to go through the Mendham Township Planning Board. Under that process, applicants would be required to hire a consultant who would oversee the entire project from an environmental and stormwater management standpoint, according to Koenig.
"That is not the case here because the jurisdiction has now moved to the agriculture board, but I believe that that base still needs to be tagged. I am fully in support of the request to have the environmental committee be designated for a review," Koenig said.

When temperatures drop and Philadelphia-area pickleball players scramble to find a place to play their increasingly popular sport indoors, they quickly find their options are limited.
The choices typically involve booking off-hours at tennis complexes, which are turning to pickleball to fill unbooked court time and generate extra revenue, or setting up portable nets in school gymnasiums and community centers to create their own courts using painter's tape for boundary lines.
Talen Singer and Bill Davis want to change that.
The entrepreneurs are preparing to open the region's first fully dedicated indoor pickleball center in Malvern this spring.
Called Bounce Pickleball, the more than $4 million facility will feature 16 courts, a teaching pro, and instructors and programming that will include court rentals, open-play events, tournaments, leagues, one-on-one and group lessons, clinics, drills sessions, and "facilitated play" where members can experience playing against some of the country's top players.
Singer and Davis aren't limiting themselves to one center. They plan to open up to six Bounce Pickleball centers in the region over the next two years, and eventually expand to as many as 18 facilities stretching to the Jersey Shore.
"We want to create a network of pickleball facilities — indoor, outdoor, anything you can imagine with everything under the sun," Singer said.
Braden Keith, Bounce's marketing and operations manager, said the organization has two primary goals.
"First and foremost," Keith said, "we want to create a strong sense of community and togetherness via pickleball by creating structured access to courts and playgroups for all ages and levels of ability, from brand-new players to touring professionals. Second, we are aiming to increase play competencies across our membership and community by bringing in the nation's top players and coaches to instruct [players] here on the Main Line. We believe that pickleball courts can be the new '3rd Place,' a space outside of work and the home to foster friendships and build new relationships."
Pickleball — a sport that combines elements of tennis, badminton and ping pong — is played on a court 44 feet long and 20 feet wide. Players use paddles commonly made of lightweight composite materials such as graphite or carbon fiber to hit a plastic ball with perforated holes over a net.
According to a recent report from the Association of Pickleball Professionals, more than 36 million people played pickleball in the 12 months from August 2021 to August 2022 and thsport experienced a nearly 40% growth rate between 2019 and 2021.
Singer readily admits he had no interest in the sport when his father, who had retired to Florida, first introduced him to pickleball. He reluctantly gave it a chance after his brother played and urged him give it a try. "I hit about seven balls, smiled and thought, 'I'm going to do this for the rest of my life,'" he said.
The Bounce team isn't the only group looking to capitalize on the sport's growing popularity.
Last year, an indoor pickleball complex with nine courts, the Mercer Bucks Pickleball Club, opened in Ewing, New Jersey, and three more pickleball centers are expected to open in South Jersey later this year.
Pickle Juice, a newly formed company, announced last week it has signed a lease with MLG Realty for two indoor pickleball facilities with juice bars in Ventnor Heights and Blackwood, New Jersey, that is expects to open this summer. ProShot Pickleball is getting ready to open at the Harbor Square Shopping Mall in Egg Harbor Township at the Jersey Shore.
The first Bounce Pickleball is being created at what was the 36,000-square-foot Great Valley Racquet Club on Morehall Road in Malvern.
Set to open in May, Bounce will feature "premiere play" enclosed courts for uninterrupted play, along with open-play courts. The facility will offer an array of membership opportunities.
Davis, a serial entrepreneur and avid pickleball player, is the lead investor for the project. Singer is the operating partner.
Singer has more than 28 years of professional experience in sports including serving the past eight years as the co-owner and operator of the Philadelphia Jumps Club in Eagleville, a facility that provides coaching and a practice site for pole vaulters. He previously owned and operated a high-end, multi-site personal training program out of several country clubs on the Main Line. He sold that business to focus on Bounce.
Singer, who was introduced to pickleball by his parents, said he had the idea to create an indoor pickleball facility several years ago after experiencing how Philadelphia Jumps coalesced the area's pole vaulting community.
"We became a one-stop shop where people can train, find coaching and actually compete in meets and perform," he said. "I thought, why can't we do this with pickleball? This really came about because there was no place to play indoors and I could never play at the prime times. My whole life has been kind of spent in niche sports, and when this project started three years ago, this was a niche sport."
Singer initially started small with plans to have a few courts at the Jumps Club, but as the club became more popular that idea wasn't feasible.
He next had lengthy discussions about creating a pickleball center from scratch inside a building in King of Prussia, with a different investor. Those negations, however, ended without a deal — in large part because the required renovations and ongoing supply issues would have meant a prolonged delay before any courts would be ready.
After discussing the idea with some of his personal fitness business clients, Singer expanded his concept.
"I had access to big thinkers, CEOs and CFOs and people who started restaurants and other businesses," he said. "I just couldn't think small anymore. When I found the right person [Davis] to partner with, we decided to jump in."
Their first move was to work with Chris Lange, managing director at the commercial real estate advisory and services firm Newmark, to determine if any existing indoor tennis centers — which could more easily be converted into a pickleball facility — were on the market. That move led them to the Great Valley Racquet Club, a more than 30-year-old tennis center owned and operated by Michael and Catherine Capelletti.
A deal was eventually worked out, and Singer responded to backlash from club members who would be losing their tennis home with assurances that all existing contracts would be honored and offers to convert tennis contracts to pickleball for any interested members.
As a result, he said, when Bounce starts accepting members in March, it will limit the number accepted to between 600 and 700 to ensure all Great Valley Racquet Club members have a chance to join Bounce.
Membership fees will start at $125 a year for open-play members. Other options include a more extensive general membership for $225 a year and a founders membership (limited to 50 people) priced at $3,450 a year that features unlimited cost access and other perks.
Bounce has already signed a partnership deal with Joola, a leading table tennis equipment company that recently expanded into Pickleball. As part of that partnership, Bounce will sell Joola equipment and gear and the Joola brand will be featured prominently throughout the facility. Bounce members will get to demo and give feedback on new paddles in development, and Joola pros will make regular stops at the center.
Keith said pickleball is unlike tennis in that tennis club members will typically rent specific court times for a small group of players who split the cost. Contract court time will be available to Bounce members, but he said they don't believe it will be widely popular for pickleball players.
Pickleball, he said, is more of a sport where groups will let it be known through social media sites what times players of a certain skill level will be playing at a site, indoor or outdoor.
"Then 30 people sign up and mix and rotate with everyone who is there," Keith said. "I think that contributes to pickleball's community vibe."
