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 â find your new lease on life at Denville Medical and Sports Rehabilitation Center.

MORRISTOWN, NJ - Free tree seedlings will be available to residents as part of the New Jersey Forest Service’s Tree Recovery Campaign, a program focused on helping communities replace trees damaged or destroyed by severe storms.
Free tree seedlings will be available on April 12 at Madison Borough Hall at 9am.
Residents are able to obtain up to five free tree seedlings. Seedlings are available on a first come, first served basis. Residents will be provided with a care guide that addresses seedling storage, general care, and identifying an appropriate planting location. The guides help residents choose the right place on a property to plant a tree while keeping in mind the tree’s full-grown size in the future. Residents should plant the seedlings within two days after pick-up in order to prevent the roots from drying out.

In New Jersey, the goal was to distribute over 700,000 tree seedlings over the course of eight years. While that target was met in 2020, natural disasters such as Hurricane Sandy, along with damage caused by various new invasive insects, the need for more new tree seedlings continues with the campaign moving into its 9th year.
Among many other benefits, trees improve the visual appeal of neighborhoods and business districts, increase property values, reduce home cooling costs, remove air pollutants, and provide wildlife habitat, said commission officials.

MADISON, NJ – It was a cloudy day in the skies and on the softball field for Madison Friday afternoon as the Dodgers lost to Morris Catholic 15-2.
Madison took an early 1-0 when Beau Braverman led off the bottom of the 1st inning with a triple and came home to score on a wild pitch moments later. However, that was the last time Madison would get a runner to third base before a consolation run in the bottom of the 7th.
Morris Catholic immediately responded in the top of the 2nd scoring five runs on a wild pitch, an error, a sacrifice bunt, and a two-run home run by Kate Heslin to take a 5-1 lead. Up 6-1 in the fourth the Crusaders put up another crooked number as they sent 13 batters to the plate in the frame with nine of them scoring. Morris Catholic was able to get the final six outs to secure the 5-inning victory.

It was a difficult day for Madison, particularly in the field as Morris Catholic scored five unearned runs and took extra bases on several occasions against the Dodgers. Madison head coach Jessica Rosella acknowledged postgame that Madison was able to make a lot of contact in Friday’s game, against a team of Morris Catholic’s caliber the Dodgers need to play to more complete game.
“We put the ball into play,” Rosella said. “We did our job as far as hitting the ball hard with runners on. Morris Catholic is a good hitting team, there a top team in the state. They are going to hit the ball hard and mostly put in play so defensively we have to be ready for that and make the plays behind our pitchers.”
The Dodgers were without their ace Charlotte Tuhy, who earlier in the season had a 10-strikeout complete game performance against Parsippany, giving the start to junior Ellena Decaro who left her usual spot at third base for the circle Friday afternoon. The right-hander pitched the first three innings against Morris Catholic before ceding way to freshman Georgia Mock. Like Decaro, the neophyte struggled but battled against the No. 10 ranked team in New Jersey in an all around rough day at the ballpark for the Dodgers.
Despite the lopsided scoreboard Rosella was proud of the way the two pitchers muscled through a very difficult matchup amidst limited pitching experience.
“I give credit to Ellena,” the Madison head coach said. “She hasn’t pitched in couple years and I ask her to pitch. She is a good teammate and did her job and did the best she could.”
“Same thing with Georgia,” Rosella added. “She is a freshman so taking those varsity hits a little bit are learning curves that are okay to have. It is tough going against Morris Catholic.”
It is a quick turnaround for the Dodgers as they are set to play their second doubleheader Saturday at the “Lace Up 4 Pediatric Cancer Tournament” when they face off against West Milford and Mendham. Last weekend, Madison lost both games they played in at the Randolph Varsity Challenge Tournament. At 4-5 now on the season, Rosella is hoping to put Friday’s game in the review mirror and get back to winning ways over the weekend.
“We just move ahead, and we find it within ourselves to come out with a ‘W’,” Rosella stated. “We got to keep rolling.”

MADISON, NJ — After more than five years of serving up classic BBQ in Morris County, owner Matt James has announced the impending closing of Daddy Matty's BBQ, much to the chagrin of his regulars.
The eatery, located at 6 Elmer Street, Madison, will be closing its doors officially on Nov. 18, officials said.
"It's been a good run for us here in Madison and we're looking forward to our next chapter," James said. "It's been a real joy to be able to get to this point in the evolution of Daddy Matty's. This whole place got started in my backyard, cooking for friends and family. It's funny that this restaurant now, and the backyard that we enjoy here, is really just an extension of the same party that I threw in my house while I was teaching myself how to smoke meat and do it well."
The restaurant, best known for its variety of BBQ options, announced its future closure abruptly on social media.
James, who has been a Madison resident for 19 years, did not cite a specific reason for shuttering the Madison location but did announce plans for a future relocation to another area, but the timeline for that was not made public.
Despite not having a new location lined up, James said that it made sense for them to close down the Madison location right now.
Daddy Matty's officials said that the business operates with the motto "Everybody Eats," which captures their commitment to sharing and helping out the local community. Since 2014, they have provided thousands of meals through their partnership with the Morris County Interfaith Food Pantry.
"We wanted to create a place that gave back to the community as a part of its DNA and so our partnerships with the Morris County Interfaith Food Pantry and other organizations in the area, there's a lot of importance to me, being able to be an effective contributor back to the local community," James said.
The news of the closure came as a shock to its customers, with one commenter saying, "A great run. Gonna miss one of my favorite Madison spots," and another saying "Aw, I just found you guys too and was so excited to share your great bbq with friends and family."
To celebrate their final two weeks of being open, Daddy Matty's will have live music performances on Wednesdays, Fridays and Saturdays, officials said. For more information, click here.
"In one respect, this is the closing of a chapter but it's not the finish to the book," James said.
