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 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.

AC/DC's "Thunderstruck" gives Calen Reid goosebumps. That's the song blaring over the loudspeakers every time the Jefferson boys lacrosse team runs onto the field to start warmups.
Even though Reid has heard it almost daily for years, the song means something a little different this spring.
Calen and his identical twin brother Jamison Reid are freshmen on the Falcons varsity. Jamison, known as J-Mo, is the starting goalie. Calen, aka Chubb, starts at attack.
Chubb – the nickname originated because he was born seven pounds and eight ounces, a minute after six pound, three ounce Jamison – has been around the Jefferson High School team for most of his life, so involved that one year the Falcons' plays were all named in his honor: Chubb, Chubby, Chubster, etc.
"It was eight years of built up energy and adrenaline," said Chubb Reid, noting he doesn't really answer to his given name.
"I'm so excited to be able to play. I love it more than anything. I just show the spirit of the team."
Their father, Scott Reid, brought lacrosse to Jefferson 26 years ago. He hadn't played the game when he was in high school there. Reid tried it for the first time when he went back to Montclair State University for a physical education degree, and loved it almost immediately.
He launched a youth team in the township with sixth, seventh and eighth graders. He also started pushing to get lacrosse added to the high school roster, which happened two years later — boys and girls teams.
Reid is Jefferson High School's first boys lacrosse coach, and has led the team since 2009. All five of his kids are involved in the sport.
Payton Reid, the eldest, was a defender starting in fifth or sixth grade. He was first-team NJAC-United as a senior last spring. Junior Finley Reid is a swing goalie, starting on the Jefferson girls junior varsity team and backing up the varsity. Jamison is also a goalie, though Scott Reid said, "He comes out of the cage a lot, and he's the fastest kid on our team." Chubb "plays everything but goalie" according to his coach-dad. Elsie, the youngest at age 8, "runs around like a maniac and loves it."
'I knew what I did':Seniors return from ACL tears to lead West Morris lacrosse team
Initially, Finley and Jamison both had to be coaxed into trying the family sport.
When Jamison was in second grade, coach-dad Scott "definitely made me do it, but it's the best decision I ever made." Finley wasn't happy with her sixth-grade teammates, switched to dance for a year, and returned.
"There was a game where our goalie didn't show up. The coach asked, 'Anybody want to play goalie?'" Finley recalled. "I was the first person to raise my hand. One hundred percent yes, I'll do it. I'd watched my brother play, and I love it. I love trying new stuff."
Finley runs cross country in the fall and is a sprinter for the Falcons' indoor track team. But the rest of the year, it's all about lacrosse. She even helps with the town youth teams, which includes her little sister.
Finley has already decided she wants to play lacrosse in college, and continue to coach.
"It's definitely going to run in the family," she said. "There's no way my kids are going to be softball people, or baseball. That's definitely not happening. It's going to be lacrosse, for sure."
But Scott Reid insisted he doesn't favor his own sons.
Payton came up through the usual system: JV as a freshman, a bench player on varsity as a sophomore, then lost his junior season to COVID before starting as a senior. But Scott Reid, who had coached Jamison and Chubb in Falcons Youth Lacrosse, knew they were going to "play big roles on varsity" as freshmen.
Chubb leads Jefferson's offense with 21 goals and 52 assists – breaking the school record for a freshman against Kinnelon on May 11.
Jamison reached 100 career saves on the same day, allowing an average of 3.8 goals. He set a team record for victories by a freshman goalie with 13 in just 16 games.
The Falcons are undefeated NJAC-Colonial and NJILL Pooley champs, winning both titles for only the second time in school history.
"My dad doesn't even have to show favoritism because of how Chubb and me play on the field," Jamison Reid said. "Growing up with him, he's always pushed us. I think we can take on bigger roles, like playing varsity lacrosse as freshmen."
Kim Reid, mom to the five rambunctious kids, is a steady presence at home – where the three boys share a room, as do the two girls in the family's raised Cape – and at everyone's games.
Both Falcons boys and girls teams share the field at practice. The siblings also try to turn up at each other's games. They even occasionally toss a ball around in the backyard, where there's a net set up for Jamison and Finley.
Though boys and girls lacrosse are very different games, Finley has picked up pointers from Jamison – and withstood more than a few hard shots from Payton and Chubb.
"As a sister, I watch them play and I get tears in my eyes," she said. "They're freshmen. They're varsity. It drives me crazy when people talk about them on the sideline. Yeah, they're only freshmen. Wait until they're seniors. They're going to be insane. They make me so proud and happy."

JEFFERSON TOWNSHIP — Members of the Morris County Prosecutor's Office wanted to grab kids’ attention in an anti-bullying and cybercrime presentation Tuesday at Jefferson Township High School.
It’s an age of oversaturation online, Morris County Prosecutor Robert Carroll said, and his office has been using face-to-face assemblies to connect with middle and high school students in an effort to “stress how important it is to exercise good judgement online and in school.”
Across the U.S., 22% of students ages 12 to 18 reported being bullied at school in 2019, according to the National Center for Education Statistics. Now is a time unlike others, the presentation stressed. The stakes are higher, and there’s little room for errors in judgment for today’s students.
NJ:Anti-bullying advocate will shift tactics after another New Jersey girl’s bullying-triggered death
Jefferson Township High School is well below that mark, said Assistant Principal Michael Lonie, who is the school’s disciplinarian. Its 880 students typically see "a couple dozen" bullying instances in any given year, and that number hasn't varied much in spite of the challenges the pandemic brought.
“You have to recognize your life is being filmed,” Supervising Assistant Prosecutor Samantha DeNegri said. “You don’t have the luxury of making mistakes.”
Many in DeNegri’s generation would not have the jobs they have today if social media and cellphones existed when they were young. They were more likely to get away with making mistakes.
The time when kids could get away with doing foolish things that didn’t come back to harm them is over, she said: “Every school fight, there is a video. Someone is filming it."
The point wasn’t lost on senior Gabriella Meltzer, 17.
“The speakers definitely caught my attention," Meltzer said. “You have to be mindful of what you do, because it can ruin your reputation for the rest of your life."
Take the case of a high school girl who took a picture of herself and sent it to her boyfriend, DeNegri said. He “airdropped it to the whole school.”
New Jersey:Senators push bills to address bullying and a crisis of teen depression
“You think 'it’s my body and I can do what I want.' Wrong: You’re a child. You cannot legally take pictures of yourself,” DeNegri said. “I don’t mean a selfie. I mean intimate body parts. If you take a picture of yourself, your intimate body parts, you are creating child pornography, and the second you show or share you are distributing child pornography."
Don’t learn these lessons the hard way, DeNegri said, noting that the girl tried to kill herself. “If you take a picture it is going to be shared. Don’t find out the hard way. Maybe not tomorrow or the next day, but it never stays with the intended recipient, never."
Presentations like these are effective, she said. Cases like this have decreased since the Prosecutor's Office put together the program. Students are getting the message.
Mistakes made online may come at a cost later. That was the point Sgt. Patrick LaGuerre of the Prosecutor's Office wanted to hammer home.
“Everybody, repeat after me: delete, delete, delete,” he said, and his audience repeated the mantra. Then he threw them yet another curveball.
“If we are doing an investigation, everything you have deleted on your social media or your cellphone will be retrieved,” he said. “We can retrieve everything: pictures, tweets, everything you’ve done on your computer. You cannot hide behind an IP address. From the IP address we get the location, and then there are video cameras everywhere."
Students are used to sitting in presentations like these, said senior Ashton Karim, 17, but this one did a good job of “illustrating how everything is tracked.”
“I found it surprising that they can get everything that was deleted from your snaps and messages,” he said.

Local Event
The date has been set for Saturday, June 10 (rain or shine) for the Jefferson Arts Committee’s first ever youth-oriented Window Painting Contest! The event is open to all Jefferson Township students who are in 6th through 12th grades whether they attend in district, out of district, or are homeschooled. It was just announced that teams can be composed of 2 or 4 students (can include different aged students within the established grade brackets), and any individual students wishing to participate will be assigned to a registered team.
Students are being given the opportunity to use their artistic talents to use the windows at the Jefferson Township Public Library or the front doors of the Jefferson Township Municipal Building as their canvas. Each team will choose a summer theme of their own or incorporate the library’s 2023 summer reading program theme “All Together Now.” Each team will register with the JAC, submit their design idea for approval, and be assigned a library window measuring 45” wide by 41” long or a glass panel entrance door at the municipal building. The JAC will provide water-based acrylic paints in red, white, green, yellow, blue, and black (participants can have fun mixing these basic colors to create others!). The JAC will also provide some brushes, painters’ tape, and drop cloths. Participants should bring some of their own thin tip paint brushes, their own coverups to protect their clothing, and perhaps some plastic gloves. A small stepstool might be a good idea as well. Teams will be supervised by parents/guardians of the participants as well as JAC members. A morning start time and an afternoon start time if needed will be decided once registrations are complete.
The JAC will ask community residents to vote onsite for the painted canvases (windows or doors) in pre-determined categories, and gift cards and other prizes will be awarded accordingly on another date.
Any students who are interested should email [email protected] or call 973-697-3828 to register with their name(s), grade, school, and telephone number. Parents/guardians may email/call on behalf of their children if they prefer. To be sure there will be enough supplies, registrations will be accepted until June 1.
Donations to help cover expenses will gratefully be accepted and can be mailed to Jefferson Arts Committee, Window Decorating Contest, PO Box 2604, Oak Ridge, NJ 07438. Any business owner wishing to donate any supplies would also be appreciated – call 973-697-3828 to discuss.
There are quite a few “canvases” ready to be painted so gather up some friends and classmates to form those teams and be sure to register!

The Jefferson Arts Committee is pleased to announce that The Jefferson Township Community Chorus under the direction of James Wynne will perform in a free concert on Sunday afternoon, May 21 at 3 pm. Their spring concert entitled “Give My Regards to Broadway…A Musical Review” will take place Our Lady Star of the Sea R.C. Church located at 204 Espanong Road, Lake Hopatcong, NJ.
Admission to this concert is free but free-will donations are welcomed.
Formed in April of 2001 by the Jefferson Arts Committee, The Jefferson Township Community Chorus has attracted many township adults, Jefferson Township High School students and alumni to its ranks over the years. Many members belong to church choirs and are looking to branch out to more secular music. The Chorus simply provides an opportunity to individuals who love to sing, are looking for a venue to sing with others, enjoy the challenge of learning new musical arrangements, and want to entertain the public.
In August of 2018, James Wynne was appointed as the new Chorus Director/Accompanist beginning with the Fall 2018 season. He came to the chorus with an extensive and impressive background having just recently retired as the Choral Music Director and Instructor of Music Technology at the Jefferson Township High School where he worked since 1983. He is currently the Director of Music and Organist at the Hilltop Presbyterian Church in Mendham and continues to serve as the Music Technology Coordinator and Clinician at the NJ Music Educators In-Service.
The Chorus rehearses 10 months out of the year from 7- 9 PM at the Jefferson Township High School Band Room located in the music corridor "M" (1010 Weldon Road, Milton/Oak Ridge, NJ) on Tuesdays unless school is closed for any reason. Those who enjoy singing a variety of musical styles are encouraged to join in September/October in preparation for a concert during Christmas in the Village and/or February/March when preparations begin for the spring concert. The Chorus is open to high school students through adults; and tenors, basses, sopranos, and altos are welcome. No audition or previous singing experience is required. Annual dues per season are collected in order to help defray the general operating expenses.

Washington, DC– Representative Mikie Sherrill (NJ-11) secured key wins for NJ-11 in the Water Resources Development Act (WRDA), which was included in the final House-passed National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) for Fiscal Year 2023. WRDA ensures North Jersey communities receive the support they need from the federal government in tackling key water infrastructure issues, such as flooding, PFAS, and harmful algal blooms.
“I am proud we were able to come together and pass the bipartisan Water Resources Development Act with provisions that protect our neighborhoods from flooding, restore our environment and ecosystems, and strengthen our nation’s supply chains by supporting our ports and harbors,” said Rep. Sherrill. “This legislation brings our hard-earned tax dollars back to the local communities in NJ-11 to advance critical flood control projects and support programs for water and wastewater services for North Jersey communities.”
WRDA authorizes funding for locally-driven projects and studies led by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (ACOE) to tackle water resource challenges across the country. Rep. Sherrill worked with the community and local stakeholders to advance several critical projects and studies for flood risk management in NJ-11. The following authorizations are included in the bill:

Earlier this year, Rep. Sherrill secured passage of her legislation, the Providing Research and Estimates of Changes In Precipitation (PRECIP) Act, in the House. The PRECIP Act updates out-of-date precipitation data by providing the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) with consistent funding to conduct needed studies. This legislation works to protect communities from the increasing frequency of flooding and rainfall in North Jersey.
Rep. Sherrill also secured funding for a number of local community projects in NJ-11 to mitigate flooding and strengthen our water infrastructure in the House Appropriations Committee Fiscal Year 2022 legislation. Additionally on behalf of NJ-11, Rep. Sherrill submitted requests for additional community projects to address critical water infrastructure challenges in the upcoming House Appropriations Committee Fiscal Year 2023 bill.
