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.

ROXBURY, NJ – A Thursday evening “Public Presentation and Question Session” related to the search for a new Roxbury Schools superintendent drew about 45 people who enthusiastically voiced their opinions about the district and what they want in a new leader.
Led by Charlene Peterson of the New Jersey School Boards Association (NJSBA), the meeting at Eisenhower Middle School ended with two rounds of applause for Peterson, who – at one point – said the level of thoughtful engagement from the audience gave her goosebumps.
Roxbury School Board President Leo Coakley agreed.

“I think if a potential candidate (for the position) were here tonight, he’d say, ‘That’s where I want to be,’” said Coakley at the end of the night, adding he meant "he or she."
The search for someone to replace retiring Roxbury Schools Superintendent Loretta Radulic is being led by the NJSBA, which will use the material gathered during Thursday’s presentation to help the school board sift through applications, conduct candidate interviews and make a choice.
Ideally, a replacement for Radulic will be ready to start working July 1, but Peterson told the board and her audience that the district should not, in order to meet that schedule, “settle” for someone who is less than ideal.
People in Roxbury and Mount Arlington will have additional opportunity to weigh-in on the superintendent search soon; the district is creating a survey that will be accessed via its website, said Coakley and Peterson.
Peterson organized into several categories the public input portion of Thursday’s session. About 14 people responded to her first question to the audience: Why is Roxbury a good place to live and work?
Among the answers:
Later, Peterson asked the audience to name some “issues requiring attention” by the new superintendent. The question yielded several responses:
When asked what they want in terms of the new superintendent’s background, training and experience, the responses from those at the presentation included:
Peterson then asked for “leadership styles” the audience wanted to see in the new district leader. That question resulted in more than a dozen replies, including:
Then, Peterson asked those at the meeting to think of some questions they would ask candidates applying for the position. This resulted in a cascade of answers – nearly 20 – including:
Early in the evening, Peterson reminded the audience that the superintendent selection process is a 2-way street. “As much as we are selecting someone to be the next superintendent, that person is also looking at us and selecting us,” she said. “They’re watching our board meetings. They’re looking at our minutes. They’re looking at what we’re doing. They’re looking at our website. They’re looking at why is this a good place?”
She later said the level of participation shown during the presentation was impressive and something that many candidates for the job are likely to find attractive.

The New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection has been looking into the rash of recent whale deaths off the coast of New Jersey and other nearby states and they’ve concluded there is no link with ongoing offshore wind-related construction activities.
Tuesday afternoon, the DEP issued a statement indicating since 2016 they have been in consultation with NOAA Fisheries, the lead federal agency responsible for evaluating potential impacts to marine life and habitats from human activities in federal waters.
The statement reads in part: “DEP is aware of no credible evidence that offshore wind-related survey activities could cause whale mortality. While DEP has no reason to conclude that whale mortality is attributable to offshore wind-related activities, DEP will continue to monitor.”
At least 13 dead whales have been spotted along the New Jersey and New York coastline since December.
The most recent case was March 2, when a 30-foot humpback whale washed ashore in Ocean County.
After completing a necropsy on the female whale the Marine Mammal Stranding Center said the wounds included a fractured skull, bruising on the head, and cuts on the whale's right side, which were likely caused by a propeller strike.
But whales have been dying along the Jersey Shore and the entire East Coast since 2016. During those years, New Jersey has seen 27 dead whales, including a previous high of five in 2019, while New York has seen 36 dead whales, including a high of nine in 2020.
From Maine to Florida, more than 189 dead whales have washed up ashore since 2016, which marine officials have labeled as a year-long "unusual mortality event."
Only half of these whales were examined and 40% of those had signs of a strike by a vessel or an entanglement.
Some environmental groups and lawmakers, including several Jersey Shore mayors, continue to call for offshore wind development to be suspended so an in-depth review of the situation can be carried out. But at least three federal agencies have rejected the idea of there being any link at all, and Gov. Phil Murphy has rejected calls for a moratorium.
In its statement, the DEP notes rising ocean temperatures will continue to adversely impact marine mammals, including whales, their food sources, habitats, and migration patterns.
The statement goes on to say:
“due to these changes in ocean temperature and water chemistry, populations of marine species – including menhaden, a key whale food source—adapt by moving into new areas where conditions are more favorable. Changes that draw prey fish landward similarly increase the risk that these fish and their predators, including whales, may be drawn into conflict with human activities, such as vessel strikes that may increase whale mortality.”
The DEP added that The Offshore Wind Research & Monitoring Initiative, a collaborative effort of the DEP and BPU, has authorized $8.5 million to study "safe and ecologically responsible development of offshore wind energy.”

Here’s one from the ‘now I have seen everything’ file.
Much has been talked about regarding bullying in our public schools of late. At a time when it’s already been years that New Jersey has had some of the toughest anti-bullying rules in the country with its Harassment Intimidation and Bullying protocols, there was a tragedy.
At Central Regional High School in Berkeley Adriana Kuch was viciously attacked in a hallway. Then cyber tortured with the sharing of a video of that attack. She took her life. She was 14.
So how do we address this scourge? Logic would say come down harder on those who bully. Present real consequences to those jerks.
One school district in Bayonne, New Jersey has a different idea. At Bayonne High School their plan is to give rewards for non-bullying. Yes, if you do the bare minimum (you know, what you're supposed to do), and don’t insult people, badger people, assault people, you get a reward for that. The school is giving everything from Fridays without homework to visits from ice cream trucks to half days. All for doing the bare minimum and following the rules.

So we now need to pay you to not be a jerk?
That's the message this is sending. It's institutionalized extortion. Pay me or I'll be a pain in the ass bully. I can't tell you how livid I was when I found out about this.
Talk about having administrators who don't have the stomach for the job before them. Stop letting the inmates run the asylum people. Do you have a problem bully? Stop coddling them. Come down on them hard. Be Joe Clark, the principal memorialized in the movie “Lean On Me.” Get tough for God’s sake. Take no crap. Change the culture.
But no, instead you're going to make matters worse acting as if bullying and being obnoxious and violent is so normal that it's worth some reward to rise above that base instinct? Shame on you. And shame on everyone who supports such nonsense.
Hey, here in the real world I never stabbed anyone. I never assaulted anyone. Do I get a free car payment for that? Maybe a Wegman’s gift card?
This is the mentality now in charge of our public schools and you should be very, very concerned.

Controversial new sex education standards went into effect for all public schools in New Jersey at the start of this schools year. Districts are allowed to determine how these classes will be taught, and adopt their own curriculum.
Facing enormous pressure from parents and community members, some districts have sought to get around the new standards.
Districts have gotten creative: Ranging from outright rejection of the new standards, to allowing parents to opt-in their children, to teaching lessons on the last day of school to make them easier to avoid.
The LGBTQIA+ community is being ostracized and told they are broken and don't belong, putting an already at-risk community in further danger. - New Jersey Public Education Coalition
Gov. Phil Murphy and his education commissioner were initially harsh when talking about noncompliance.
A spokesperson for the NJ Department of Education said in July, 2022, that districts not in compliance "will be penalized for instruction and program in the appropriate curricular area” and that “the severity of the ramifications could vary.”
When the Middletown Board of Education opposed the new standards and vowed to adopt an "opt-in" policy, the Murphy administration threatened to haul them into court.
Now, with the current school year nearly two-thirds complete, Murphy and acting NJ Education Commissioner Angelica Allen-McMillan have largely been silent.
A group called the New Jersey Public Education Coalition is urging them to break that silence, and force compliance in all districts.
In a letter to Murphy and Allen-McMillan, the group cites several examples of circumvention mentioned in a recent School Ethics Commission report.
NJ.com reports the letter begs for immediate intervention, "The safety of children is being challenged, and the LGBTQIA+ community is being ostracized and told they are broken and don't belong, putting an already at-risk community in further danger."
What could happen?
The education commissioner does have the power to intervene.
Last September, districts were warned if districts do not comply with the new standards, they face loss of local control, monitoring by the state and, in extreme cases, loss of state aid.
To date, there has been no evidence the Murphy administration has taken any such action.
The Public Education Coalition is suggesting that school board members who voted against implementing the new sex-ed standards could be forcibly removed, for violating ethical standards.
Removal of a school board member would require a ruling from a judge or state administrative agency.
Citing that School Ethics Commission opinion, the coalition offered to prepare a "test case" the state could use to take such action.
In an extreme case, the state could seek to have an entire school board removed.
It is not clear what action, if any, Murphy and his education officials will take. Murphy has not responded to the letter.
Implementation of the new sex-education standards triggered large protests before the start of the school year. Angry parents often packed school board meetings to let their opposition to the standards be known.
