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.
Some common reasons why patients need physical therapy at Denville Medical include:
1.
Sports Injuries Whether you are on the varsity team of your high school football team or a professional athlete, sports injuries are serious business. Our doctors and physical therapists will develop a plan to help you heal properly, so you can get back in the game sooner rather than later.
2.
Pre and Post Operation With decades of combined experience, our physical therapy experts know that there is a time for gentle healing and a time for aggressive physical rehab. Whether you are scheduled for surgery or have recently been released from the hospital, our therapists are here to help you recover, one step at a time.
3.
Neurological Issues At Denville Medical, we treat much more than sports-based injuries. Whether you're suffering from Multiple Sclerosis, Parkinson's, or a vestibular problem, our therapists are trained and certified to help you regain your body's optimal functionality.
Life has a habit of throwing us curveballs. Sure, some surprises only hurt your bank account, like expenses around the home. But more serious incidents, like car wrecks, can inflict physical injuries causing long-term pain. Injury-related problems like neck and back pain affect many Americans daily. Even worse, many hardworking people turn to addictive pain medication and invasive surgeries for relief, only to find themselves deeper in a hole.
If you're in chronic pain or suffer from range of motion problems, you should know that options are available for safer, more effective pain relief. One of the most commonly used solutions is physical therapy. The main goal of physical therapy is to maximize your body's mobility and increase overall function. In order to accomplish this, physical therapy techniques focus on improving range of motion and building muscle strength.
Physical therapy helps people of all ages with illnesses, medical conditions, or injuries that limit their mobility and body functionality. At Denville Medical and Sports Rehabilitation Center, our doctors and physical therapists create customized physical therapy programs to help patients reclaim their lives.
When combined with diet and exercise, many patients are able to enjoy activities that they only thought possible with youth.
Some of the most common techniques that physical therapists use to help patients include:
From improper ergonomics at your office desk to injuries sustained in car wrecks, neck pain is a widespread problem. Taking the proper preventative steps to deal with pain provides relief and can prevent the need for surgery or medication.
Generally, there are two kinds of neck pain: chronic and acute. Acute pain shouldn't last for more than six weeks, while chronic pain can last months or even years. Physical therapy is one of the most recommended treatments for neck pain. Treatments often involve reducing neck exercise, strength training, and stretching. If you're suffering from acute or chronic neck pain, it's important to have tests done by a physical therapist to determine the extent of your injury.
Neck pain is caused by a wide range of problems, like:
After identifying the underlying cause of your condition, your physical therapist will develop a comprehensive treatment to address your pain and provide long-term relief.
Back pain is one of the leading causes of disability in America. Back pain can start innocuously as a small muscle ache but can quickly become a more serious problem that disrupts daily life. Like neck pain, the best way to address the issue is to understand the root cause so that surgery is avoided.
Also like neck pain, back pain is either chronic (longer than six weeks) or acute (less than six weeks). Back pain can be caused by a number of events, like lifting a heavy item or simply sitting wrong for too long. To determine the extent of your injuries, you will need one or more diagnostic tests, like X-rays or MRI scans. Once the root cause of your condition is revealed, your physical therapist will work with Denville Medical doctors to create a treatment plan tailored to your body.
Common conditions linked to back pain include:
Experiencing a herniated disc is something most people dread, but many have to endure. Luckily, PT plays a significant role in herniated disc recovery. Physical therapy not only provides immediate pain relief, it teaches patients how to condition their bodies to avoid worse injuries.
At Denville Medical, our physical therapists and doctors have years of experience helping patients rehabilitate from herniated discs. Patients benefit from several time-tested techniques to relieve pain.
After diagnostic testing, active and passive treatments can include:
Do your hips feel uneven or misaligned? Do you suffer from hip stiffness or pain when the weather changes? Are you having trouble getting around the house like you used to? Your hips bear most of your weight, so it's no surprise that hip pain is very common among Americans.
Fortunately, physical therapy has been proven to provide relief for people dealing with acute or chronic hip pain. As with other forms of pain, you will need diagnostic testing to determine the extent of your hip problems.
Some common causes of hip pain include:
Once your hip issues are properly diagnosed, it's time to find relief. Denville Medical & Sports Rehabilitation Center offers several custom solutions, including acupuncture, chiropractic care, and personalized physical therapy.
Like hip pain, knee pain is a common condition in the U.S. and affects millions of people every year. Pain in the knee is caused by many things, including strains, injuries, age, and repetitive trauma. Sometimes, there's no apparent reason for knee pain. When it occurs, you may experience limited knee functionality, like difficulty standing, walking, sitting, and walking up and down stairs.
There are many conditions associated with knee pain, including:
If you notice symptoms like clicking or popping sounds, locking, inflammation, or sharp pains in your knee, physical therapy might be your best bet for relief.
Sometimes, surgery is the only option a patient can choose to alleviate pain from injuries and accidents. When this is the case, physical therapy plays a vital role before and after surgery.
To help you get a better sense of the scope of our physical therapy treatments, we're listing some of the most frequently asked questions that we receive at Denville Medical:
Answer : While some physical therapists 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.
Whether you're dealing with chronic knee pain or acute back pain, relief is in sight. Rather than dangerous medicines and invasive surgeries, we specialize in non-surgical treatments like physical therapy. Our team of physical therapists, chiropractors, acupuncturists, and primary care doctors have years of experience and work hand-in-hand to give you real pain relief.
If you're sick and tired of living life full of physical pain, now is the time to act. Don't let your body deteriorate – find your new lease on life at Denville Medical and Sports Rehabilitation Center.

We've been hot on the campaign train for the past few months supporting local candidates as they meet and greet voters in towns and counties across New Jersey.
My friend Mark Taylor is running for re-election as mayor in Florham Park and we spent the afternoon last Thursday meeting voters in two great locations in the Morris County town.
One stop, SLIK, is not only a top-shelf hair care establishment, but the owners are experts and have on-site training for people wanting to get into the industry. They are a great example of strong, successful entrepreneurs who are equipped to deliver a great customer experience.
The second stop was at a fantastic restaurant across the parking lot where the pizza has been rated as some of the best in the nation.
Owners Jose and Kelly run a great business. It's an experience that allows you to grab a haircut and an old-school straight razor shave complete with a reclined comfortable chair and a hot towel.
Jose is a trainer who can also get newcomers to the industry the proper training to get licensed and work. The lounge is inviting and decorated well, giving off a vibe that you'd rather hang out than rush out. Complete with pics of historically famous people getting a haircut and an expert staff, including their partner and stylist, Curtis, who is ready to invite you in and have you feeling like a million bucks.
Chef Owner Andrew Horowytz is running one of the best casual Italian restaurants in New Jersey. He's a great chef, a friendly family man and an outstanding entrepreneur.
The place was packed for lunch and everything from chicken parm to pasta to their top-rated "grandma's pizza" is on the menu.
It's delicious and as you can see from the picture, half was gone as we walked across the parking lot.
Even barstool sports weighed in on the deliciousness.

FLORHAM PARK — As the final seconds ticked down, Katie Schmitt counted them off.
"Three... two... one..." When the buzzer sounded, she raised her arms.
Schmitt, a 19-year-old from Morristown, was running through drills at the New York Jets' training facility to celebrate the launch of New Jersey's newest flag football league.
The NFL team already sponsors the North Jersey girls' flag league, which is in its fourth season. On Wednesday, the Jets and Special Olympics New Jersey introduced a new Unified high school league.
Unified programs blend athletes with intellectual disabilities and neurotypical partners. There are more than 250 Unified Champion schools in New Jersey, supported through funding from the U.S. and state education departments.
Morristown, Morris Knolls, Roxbury and West Orange will play six regular-season games in the pilot program. The Jets will host the playoffs back at Florham Park on May 29.
"It was so good. I'm tired," Schmitt said. "I've never done this before."
Her younger brother Noah Schmitt is a junior wide receiver and defensive back for Morristown, and helped his classmates go through offensive and defensive drills on Wednesday.
"They don't really get to do this kind of stuff," he said. "Getting to see them, it's a big event."
More:Special Olympics Unified sports give athletes a stage. But is the program inclusive enough?
Girls' flag football was defined as a club in New Jersey for its first three seasons, but has been upgraded to "pilot sport" status by the NJSIAA for at least the next two years. Nine states sponsored 913 girls flag football teams in 2022-23, according to the National Federation of State High School Associations survey, with 361 in Florida, 198 in Georgia and 138 in New York.
The Jets sponsor nearly 200 high school girls flag programs across New Jersey, lower New York State and Long Island – including the North Jersey league, which has grown from the original eight to 52 teams. There were 83 New Jersey schools with flag programs last spring, according to NJSIAA Executive Director Colleen Maguire.
Jefferson, Montville, Morristown and Mount Olive represent Morris County.

The Jets will provide the Unified teams with uniforms and practice jerseys, footballs and flag belts, along with grants to defray other costs.
Morris Knolls sophomore Val Pulido brought her own football on Wednesday. As the Golden Eagles rotated through the different stations, she shyly asked for autographs from all four Jets players on hand: center Joe Tippmann, linebackers Quincy Williams and Marcelino McCrary-Ball and defensive lineman Tanzel Smart. They also signed Morris Knolls' Unified flag poster.
"It's cool. It's big," Pulido said, looking around the high-ceilinged indoor facility. "Flag football is my dream."
The NJSIAA offers Unified basketball and bowling in the winter and track and field in the spring. However, it is not presently involved with the Unified flag program, according to a spokesman.
"It's something I wish I'd been able to do when I was a kid," said Tippmann, who demonstrated a nifty spin move the kids tried to emulate in a one-on-one drill.
"I started with flag, but getting to be in this facility, this environment, to be able to meet and be around pro athletes, it's something I wish I could have done."

FLORHAM PARK, New Jersey (WABC) -- After an Uber Eats driver was arrested in Florham Park last month, an officer decided to complete the food delivery -- but was surprised at the customer who was behind the door.
Officer Mike Zvolensky was on routine patrol on Jan. 21 when he stopped a car around 8:30 p.m. on Felch Road.
Police say a random plate inquiry showed the driver had an outstanding warrant.
The 60-year-old driver was arrested when it was determined she had a $1,000 bail traffic warrant out of Denville Municipal Court.
Officer Alex Tredy didn't want the Uber Eats customers to go hungry, so decided to complete the McDonald's food delivery.
Bodycam footage showed him trading his badge to help residents in a different way.
Tredy didn't know it at the time, but it turns out that customer waiting for the food ended up being Nicole Snooki Polizzi's husband Jionni LaValle.
"He was definitely surprised but he understood the situation, and was very thankful of the kind act that we did," Tredy said.
After officers arrested the Uber Eats driver, they parked her car at the Florham Park Memorial First Aid Squad so it wouldn't get towed.
"If we can take that extra step and give them that sense of peace and dignity and respect, we're always going to take that," Zvolensky said.
Unfortunately Tredy didn't score a tip for the extra duty.
"We can't accept tips as government officials, we do it out of the goodness of hearts," Tredy said.
And he said he has no plans to change careers.
"I enjoy my job and obviously got into the job to help people," he said.

FLORHAM PARK, N.J. - Aaron Asedo’s outlook on golf revolves around much more than just the golf swing. A successful player himself, Asedo understands that there are other components to the game to help achieve one’s goals. With that vision in mind, Asedo created Florham Park Golf Club to help elevate the training experience for all golfers.
FPGC is an indoor golf facility equipped with top-notch technology to elevate your golf game and wellness journey.
“I've always been a creative person and always a bit of an entrepreneur where I've had different businesses along the way. Having worked at golf clubs and moving into teaching roles and being a director of instruction - I've always liked helping my students,” Asedo explained. “Also, over the years of working out, health, fitness and wellness, taking care of myself, I wanted to do something bigger and call it my own. Florham Park Golf Club is a culmination of all of my passions into one.”
Asedo has made stops at several noteworthy golf clubs in the area and his experience has helped lead him to this point.
The opportunities at FPGC are plentiful. Asedo offers lessons on state-of-the-art TrackMan simulators. To tap into the health and wellness space, stretching, massages, a sauna and cold plunge are all available as well.
"I designed this facility with a lot in mind,” Asedo added. “I’m TPI (Titliest Performance Institute) certified and having different training backgrounds, working on the health and wellness - I think that's the differentiator. The work that we do here with our clients - having a facility that encompasses the performance, from the physical standpoint as well as the golf, and tying it together, that's what separates us.”
What has made FPGC so unique is its focus on player experience, transporting each visitor away from their busy everyday lives.
“It's a space where people feel that they've kind of disappeared for the day,” Asedo said. “That they're at a spa or a luxury resort for the day. A lot of our members talk that way when they keep coming back.”
FPGC also offers three different membership options; Junior Membership, Associate Membership and Founding Member, which all feature different privileges and benefits.
With a background in furniture design, Asedo has curated FPGC to fit a sleek and modern facility – fit for players of all levels all while creating a welcoming and lively environment.
“This is a place where I can help all of our students, provide an atmosphere where people are working on themselves, taking care of their health and also enjoying a bit of a social scene.”

Construction is nearing completion on 173 McGuinness Boulevard, an eight-story residential building in Greenpoint, Brooklyn. Designed by Issac & Stern Architects and developed by Guy Peleg under the Artlife 173-175 McGuinness LLC, the 80-foot-tall structure will span 27,509 square feet and yield 24 rental units with an average scope of 836 square feet, as well as a 35-foot-long rear yard. B.O.S.S. Associates Inc. is the general contractor for the project, which is situated on a 4,375-square-foot interior lot between Meserole Avenue and Calyer Street.
Recent photos show the main eastern elevation facing McGuinness Boulevard clad in red brick surrounding a grid of floor-to-ceiling windows with dark mullions. Stepped setbacks above the fifth floor are lined with glass railings for terraces, and the volume behind them is finished in flat gray paneling. The ground floor remains unfinished behind sidewalk scaffolding.
The southern lot line wall is mostly blank with the exception of four narrow windows on the top floors toward the rear of the structure. Façade work is ongoing on the opposite corner of this wall, where a gap remains following the recent demolition of the abutting low-rise neighbor to make way for another residential development at 161 Meserole Avenue.
The below photo shows the roof parapet lined with a metal railing and a stack of balconies protruding from the western profile.
The closest subway from the property is the G train at the Greenpoint Avenue station.
173 McGuinness Bouelvard’s original completion date was slated for last winter, though YIMBY now expects work to finish up near the end of this year.
