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.

JEFFERSON – Amanda Nwankwo still remembers stepping on the court at Jefferson High School against Newton as a freshman, trying to shoot a layup and getting pushed. She tore her anterior cruciate ligament, and missed her entire sophomore season.
With Nwankwo back in the lineup last winter, the Falcons reached the NJSIAA Group 2 final. When the 6-foot-3 center hurt her right knee early in Tuesday's NJSIAA North 1, Group 2 final, Nwankwo was very clear.
"It cannot happen again," said Nwankwo, who missed much of the second and third quarters of Jefferson's nail-biter 66-61 victory over Pequannock.
"I could not give up on my team. I pushed my butt off. My team did not give up on me."
With Nwankwo getting treatment on her right knee, Pequannock was able to crank up its inside game. The seventh-seeded Golden Panthers opened the third quarter on a 10-0 run that lasted nearly five minutes.
Pequannock (11-7) was within three points when Jefferson junior Emily Poulas responded. She scored 10 of the top-seeded Falcons' 13 points in the third quarter, stretching the lead back out to eight.
"Amanda went down, and we did what we had to do," said Poulas, who finished with a game-high 23 points.
"I didn't really think about it beforehand. It just sort of happened. ... I don't think any of us are ready for it to end yet."
But the rejuvenated Golden Panthers never backed down again.
They took the lead on senior Nicole Klimek's 3-pointer from the right corner with 50 seconds left. Poulas responded with a three of her own from almost the exact same spot at the other end of the court 16 seconds later.
Jefferson coach James MacDermid called timeout, then Poulas got fouled and made both free throws to build the lead to three points. Pequannock coach Jennifer Baggott called a timeout of her own. But after Klimek missed another 3, the Golden Panthers were forced to foul.
Sophomore Kiley Shatzel sank one, waited out another Pequannock time out, and coolly made the second to start Jefferson's celebration.
Golden Panthers junior Chloe Vasquez scored 22 points. Senior Faith Tucker added half of her 16 points in the fourth quarter. Klimek had 15 for Pequannock.

"Our girls felt a little more comfortable in the moment," Baggott said. "We're definitely an outside threat: a driving threat and a 3-point shooting threat. Our weakness is our size, and that's one of their strengths."
The Falcons (22-7) will play Secaucus in a Group 2 semifinal at 7:30 p.m. Wednesday at Bloomfield High School. Secaucus, the top seed in North 2, Group 2, toppled defending sectional champion Madison.
Jefferson had beaten the Dodgers in last year's Group semi, falling to Manasquan in the final.
Not long after that disappointment, the Falcons started building toward this year's title. They played in a Paterson summer league, then a challenging regular-season schedule including many larger schools like Montville (twice), Morristown and Paterson Eastside.
"We got the competition we needed for games like this," Poulas said, shortly before climbing a ladder to help cut down the net.
"We knew we would need moments like that for moments like this."

Not even Mother Nature could keep second-seeded Pequannock from winning its first sectional title since 2009 as it defeated top-seeded Pompton Lakes 9-5 in the North Jersey, Section 1, Group 1 finals in Pompton Lakes.
Pequannock (24-5) took a 9-5 lead in the top of the seventh inning before lightning caused the game to be delayed by 39 minutes. Joe Sabbath later shut the door on Pompton Lakes (21-8) to help the Golden Panthers win their sixth straight and seven of their last eight.
“Pompton Lakes is a great team and well coached,” Pequannock head coach Jon McBurney said. “It took a total team effort to beat them.”
After trailing 5-2 at the end of the fourth inning, Ryan Foley came up huge for Pequannock with a bases-clearing double to tie things up in the top of the fifth. Foley also blasted a solo home run in the fourth and had a one-run single in the seventh to finish with a five-RBI day.
“Ryan Foley has a great day at the plate to get the offense going,” McBurney continued. “Joe Sabbath settled things down on the mound to give us a chance to win.”
Pequannock continued its momentum in the seventh inning when it added four more runs to take a four-run advantage.
“It’s a great program win and a great win for the community of Pequannock,” McBurney said. “I’m proud of the effort the team has given this season.”
Sabbath earned the victory by going 5 1/3 innings in relief and allowing three hits, one earned run, one walk, and four strikeouts.
This marked the furthest Pequannock had gone in the sectional tournament since 2017 and its first finals appearance since 2012.
Tyler Benway went 4 2/3 innings for the Cardinals and struck out six while allowing four hits, one earned run, and three walks.
