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.

DOVER — A vacancy on the Board of Aldermen will continue into next month while Mayor Carolyn Blackman and the town's ...
DOVER — A vacancy on the Board of Aldermen will continue into next month while Mayor Carolyn Blackman and the town's governing body seek outside legal counsel regarding whether one of three candidates chosen to fill the seat is qualified to take office.
The outcome could tip the balance of power between the town's two Democratic factions in an election year in which the mayor's office and alderman seats in all four wards are up for grabs.
Former Third Ward Alderman Adrian Ballesteros has moved to California and resigned on Jan. 8. Following state law, the Dover Democratic Committee convened on Jan. 22 to choose three nominees to fill his seat.
Committee Chair Edward Correa, a former Third Ward alderman; DDC Treasurer Michael Scarneo; and Hope Summerset were chosen from a field of five candidates to be the nominees.
Correa was previously appointed to fill Blackman's Ward 3 seat on the board after she was elected mayor in 2019. But he lost a bid for re-election in last year's Democratic primary to Karol Ruiz, who won the seat in the November general election.
All three nominees were in attendance Tuesday night for an expected final vote from the board.
But the mayor opened the meeting by saying "no action will be taken tonight" to fill the empty seat while the administration sought legal counsel for an undisclosed reason. On Wednesday, town Administrator BettyLou DeCroce said Dover is seeking another legal opinion after receiving a letter from attorney Walter Luers that Summerset could be barred from taking office due to conflicts with the federal Hatch Act.
Summerset is a social service administrator for the federally funded Morris County Housing Authority. The Hatch Act, passed in 1939, limits certain political activities of federal workers, as well as some state and local government employees who work in connection with federally backed programs.
"We need to get our legal opinion on this and also need to have some of the board members meet the candidates," Blackman said.
DeCroce said Summerset's qualifications for office had also been questioned by some board members.
"Hope said she had confirmation from the federal government that she wasn't in conflict, but I have reached out to get another opinion from our labor counsel," she said. That opinion was expected to arrive Wednesday but cannot be made public until it has been disseminated to the board members for review, DeCroce said.
"This is an inward fight of the Dover Democratic County Committee, so that's where it is," DeCroce said. "So we're trying to determine which legal opinion is right and which is wrong."
The expectation is the seat will be filled at a special meeting called for Feb. 7.
Also in limbo is the status of municipal attorney Tim Downs. Tuesday, the board approved more than two dozen professional service appointments − mostly re-appointments − ranging from various legal counsels to engineering and water-service contractors. Among the few appointments withheld was for municipal attorney.
DeCroce said the town would again issue requests for proposals from other attorneys. Downs has already submitted his proposal, she said. No date was set to make that appointment.
Downs did not immediately return a call for comment on his status.

ROCKAWAY − When Montville bowling last won the Morris County Tournament, Tyler Polachek was a freshman. He was proud to contribute. But at Thursday's MCT, Polachek knew he had to do a lot more for the Mustangs.
Polacheck led the team to success, including a 2-0 victory over Morris Tech in the final. The Mustangs dedicated their victory to George Kattermann, their bus driver and unofficial assistant coach − and the father of two former Montville bowlers: Erik and Karl.
Erik Kattermann had bowled a perfect 300 game in 2017 as the Mustangs won their third consecutive MCT title. George Kattermann missed Thursday's MCT after hernia surgery, so he wasn't able to give the bowlers his little tweaks and adjustments.
"It's tough without him," said Polachek, who had the second-best individual game in the preliminary round and tied for second in high series.
"This win is not just for the team, but for him too, because we wish he was here. ... The last time we were on top was freshman year. I remember bringing a lot of energy to the table, and stepping up as a freshman. Now they all look up to me to see what we can do."
Morris Tech relied on a trio of female bowlers − seniors Amanda Granata and Aubrey Schwager and junior Amelia Lemanowicz − in the MCT. Granata, who has signed a National Letter of Intent with Youngstown State, had the top girls' game: a 258 in the prelim. Lemanowicz had the best series by a female bowler.
"I found the line quickly, but it was easier because these are our home lanes," said Lemanowicz, a junior from Mount Arlington who is focusing on interior design and architecture.
"I made all the spares but one, which is still bothering me. I leave a lot of 7-pins, because I'm a lefty."
Roxbury didn't have a varsity bowling team in Gavin Mattes' freshman year. But he'd been bowling in a league since he was 6, so when the Gaels' team launched this winter, it was a natural fit.
Mattes shone at his first MCT, winning both the high game with a 268 and high series.
Mount Olive started its own team this winter as well, after years as a co-op program with Hopatcong. Marauders senior Dylan Cupen stepped up and had the third-best game on Thursday.
"It's similar to leagues, but it's a bigger competition," Mattes said. "Representing the school, it's hard to put (the feeling) into words. We have to show we're here to compete. We're not just, 'Oh cool, a first-year team.'"

Trees are being taken down along the former Lackawanna Cutoff about seven miles east of Roxbury as NJ Transit prepares for train service
BYRAM, NJ – Preparations for the restoration of a 112-year-old railroad tunnel on the former Lackawanna “Cutoff” in Byram are taking place, marking an important milestone in the proposed extension of NJ Transit trains west into Sussex County.
Work crews have been clearing trees in the vicinity of the Roseville Tunnel and at the site where a new NJ Transit station will be built nearby in Andover. It is estimated the $32.5 million job will be done in 2026, allowing for passenger train service to extend from the current Lake Hopatcong station in Landing to the new station in Andover.
Passenger trains last ran on the historic Cutoff – a flat, relatively straight, high-speed beeline between Port Morris and Pennsylvania - in 1970. Tracks on the route were removed in 1984, but about four miles of rail have been replaced as part of a restoration project that stalled a decade ago due to an environmental problem in Sussex County that was recently resolved.

“It’s been 11 years, almost exactly,” said Chuck Walsh, president of the North Jersey Rail Commuter Association, an organization that wants to see the trains return to the Cutoff. “The last trackage put down in Byram was in February 2012. Trying to keep the momentum going during that time, with all the naysayers saying it’s not going to happen, was tough. So, it’s very gratifying to see it is moving, and you can actually go out there and take photos of it.”
In 2021, Amtrak announced a proposal to restore service to the full Cutoff, re-establishing passenger service between New York Penn Station and Scranton, Pa. If that project receives funding, it might delay the opening of service to Andover, according to Walsh.
"My personal opinion is if Amtrak gets the designation for the Scranton Corridor, Andover service may slip and almost go hand-in-hand," he said. "If Amtrack service is activated in 2027, I would probably say that's when they open service in Andover. Clearly there is some connection between the two."
Amtrak envisions high-speed passenger stations in New Jersey at Summit, Morristown, Dover and Blairstown. NJ Transit has not proposed service past Andover.
Those who want to see the Amtrak project funded are being asked, by Walsh, to write letters to Gov. Phil Murphy.

Checks for $15,000 Each Presented to Growing Stage & Sabor Latino
The nonprofit Growing Stage—The Children's Theatre of New Jersey in Netcong and the Sabor Latino Restaurant in Dover were today’s recipients of $15,000 checks through the Morris County Small Business Grant Program, as the Morris County Board of County Commissioners continued to assist shops and nonprofits hit hard by the pandemic.
Sabor Latino was a particularly special stop for Commissioner Director Tayfun Selen and Deputy Director John Krickus because owners Wilson and Maria Vasquez had opened their business to host a kick-off for the grant program on Valentine’s Day. With the Morris County Chamber of Commerce, Morris County Economic Development Corporation (EDC) and other partners, Wilson and Maria permitted their restaurant to serve as a one-day staging area for owners of Dover businesses, including their own, to apply for up to $15,000 grants under the program on Feb. 14.
“On behalf of the Morris County Board of Commissioners, it is my pleasure to present you with this grant,” said Director Selen to Wilson and Maria, noting the family business, operating since 2007, was substantially impacted by the pandemic.
Joining the check presentation was Dover Mayor Carol Blackman, Chamber Vice President Michael Stanzilis and Ed Ramirez of the Morris County EDC.
“This is an example of different levels of government coming together … all working for nonprofits and, most importantly, to help out our small businesses,” said Deputy Director Krickus, noting the county built the program using American Rescue Plan Act funds.
“This is a visionary approach to helping small businesses, and we really appreciate what the Morris County Commissioners have done with this funding. We are not seeing programs like this elsewhere,” said Stanzilis.
Later in the afternoon, Netcong Mayor Joseph Nametko joined Commissioner Krickus in presenting a $15,000 check to Stephen L. Fredericks, founder and Executive Director of The Growing Stage—The Children's Theatre of New Jersey, which is celebrating its 40th Anniversary.
“It has been a difficult time for all of the arts … We thank you for this,” said Fredericks, as Commissioner Krickus presented at check.
The Growing Stage is a non-profit professional performing arts center for young audiences, and as with all performing arts centers, the pandemic essentially shut down operations for many months, leaving the center struggling to recover. The presentation was held in the lobby of the historic Palace Theater in Netcong, where The Growing Stage established its home in 1994.
In attendance for the presentation were Morris Arts Executive Director Tom Werder and Growing Stage Business Manager Stephanie Kingsbury in attendance.
Nearly 600 small businesses and nonprofits have applied for grants under the unique Morris County program, which is designed to help shops who overcame the pandemic, but continued to face financial impacts as they struggled to maintain their business.
The Commissioners dedicated $10 million to the program, and $3 million currently remains uncommitted. Morris County is still accepting applications.
Most of applications heading for final approval will provide each of the qualified businesses and nonprofits the maximum grant amount of $15,000. While the remaining applications are still being reviewed, the program remains open to new applications.
There is no cost to apply.
The Small Business Grant Program eligibility requirements include, but are not limited to:
Federal guidelines covering the grant program will determine exactly which expenses qualify for coverage under the grant program and which applications may be approved.
The grants are capped at $15,000 per applicant. However, business owners and nonprofits are encouraged to submit applications that include all costs they believe may qualify for the grant, even if the total amount of a single claim exceeds $15,000.
A final review may determine that some costs submitted for consideration are not covered under the program guidelines. However, by submitting all expenses that may qualify, applicants increase the possibility of getting the maximum amount of grant dollars possible.
