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.

Snagging a brand-new apartment at one of Morris County’s hottest rental communities just became a lot easier.
Rock Pointe, the luxury rental community in Rockaway Township, has opened its final phase of residences for leasing, developers KRE Group and Russo Development announced Thursday.
The new phase delivers 78 new apartments to a supply-constrained market, giving renters a fresh chance to lease in an already-popular community. It puts the finishing touch on Rock Pointe, the upscale garden apartment community situated in a spectacular ridgetop setting at 1 Rock Pointe Place, just off Green Pond Road, near shopping, dining and an entrance to Interstate 80.
Rock Pointe has now reached its full size of 345 rental residences, complemented by an array of indoor and outdoor amenities that includes a central 10,000-square-foot clubhouse.
Monthly rental rates start from $2,250 for one-bedroom residences and $2,740 for two-bedroom residences, with incentives of one month free on select two-bedroom apartments available for a limited time. Initial occupancy of the final phase is projected for May.
“We are thrilled to be able to offer one more group of renters the opportunity to join the community here at Rock Pointe,” Jonathan Kushner, president of KRE Group, said. “In a Morris County market where new construction rentals are in high demand, Rock Pointe continues to offer renters an attractive combination of location, luxury and value. It’s a distinction that we are proud of and something we look forward to sharing with even more residents in the near future.”
Rock Pointe offers an amenity-rich lifestyle, with well-appointed residences complemented by elegant social and recreational spaces. The centerpiece is the community’s clubhouse, featuring an expansive layout with a state-of-the-art fitness center and yoga room, resident lounge with several seating areas, fireplace and a bar, conference room, screening/gaming room, and more.
Outside, coveted open-air amenity spaces include a pool, pool house, landscaped terrace with a fire pit, sun loungers, televisions, tot lot, a walking path and a fitness area for invigorating, fresh-air workouts. A central barbecue area is ideal for larger events, while smaller barbecue stations allow for more intimate gatherings. All residents have access to package lockers, individual mailboxes in each building, parking garages for each building, and onsite EV car charging stations. The pet-friendly community also offers a dog park and a dog wash station.
The residences feature plush interior spaces and open layouts that are ideal for both day-to-day living and entertaining. Modern kitchens are outfitted with stainless steel dishwashers, refrigerators and microwaves, and granite countertops. All homes include in-unit washer/dryer, luxury vinyl tile flooring in the living areas, large closets, ceiling fans, and tile flooring in bathrooms. Climate control is efficient and modern, with central AC and gas heat/hot water.
Rock Pointe is a new addition to KRE Group’s “Garden Collection” of luxury apartments. It delivers upscale rental living to a beautiful region of Morris County that is dotted with lakes and lush forests. Commuters are well-connected, as Interstate 80, Interstate 287, Route 15 and Route 46 are all nearby. New Jersey Transit’s Denville train station, offering service to Manhattan, is about a five-mile drive away. Bus service is available through New Jersey Transit and Lakeland Bus Lines. Residents are close to a number of local destinations, including the Rockaway Townsquare Mall, Wegmans, Costco, Lake Hopatcong, the Split Rock Reservoir, Farny State Park and several lake clubs and golf courses.

ROCKAWAY, NJ — A brand-new retail marijuana dispensary in Rockaway has officially opened for business, making it the first legal recreational marijuana dispensary in all of Morris County.
Kind Kush staged its grand opening earlier this month on Aug. 19 in the Rockaway Borough shopping center off of Route 46, which is anchored by Tractor Supply Co., after its preliminary soft launch in late July.
The dispensary received final approval from the New Jersey Cannabis Regulatory Commission on July 18. "The wait was stressful, but we can finally say that we made it, and like we’ve said before, we’re beyond excited to meet you all in-person," Kind Kush officials said.
According to the dispensary's website, packaged goods include cannabis supplied in natural flower-bud form, pre-rolled joints, edibles, vape cartridges, as well as accessories such as lighters, rolling paper and grinders.
Customers must be at least 21 years old and may purchase no more than one ounce at a time.
Prices on their website range from $55 for 3.5 grams of pure indica, $38.67 for a five-pack of pre-rolls, and $30–$40 for edibles.
The dispensary is open from 10 a.m. until 8 p.m. on Monday through Saturday and from 10 a.m. through 6 p.m. on Sundays.
For more information, visit kindkushdispensary.com or email [email protected] or call 973-586-9333.
Although Kind Kush is the county's first recreational dispensary, nearby communities are close behind, with the most anticipated coming to Morristown in the near future.
The business will be housed in a two-story building on Ridgedale Avenue, making it Morristown's first cannabis dispensary. The initial decision and plan presentation occurred last month, but the final approval came on March 23.
Uma Flowers will be located at the former Sam's Automotive Repair location, 102 Ridgedale Avenue.
The land is currently owned by the neighboring Morris Brick and Stone Co., which will lease it to Uma Flowers to run the cannabis business.
The store's debut date was not specified during the plan's presentation, but the dispensary will sell both recreational and medicinal marijuana.
Tejal and Priyanka Patel, the sisters-in-law behind Uma Flowers, told the Morristown planning board that they had worked in public health and medicine before launching the cannabis company around a year ago.
The dispensary will initially be open from 9 a.m. to 8 p.m., Monday through Saturday, and from noon to 8 p.m. on Sunday.
In 2021, New Jersey became the 13th state in the nation to legalize marijuana, joining states like California, Colorado, Maine, Vermont and Massachusetts where marijuana is legal. The move came after a majority of New Jersey voters (more than 70 percent) supported legalizing marijuana, via a change to the state's constitution.
Adults 21 and older have the legal right to consume cannabis in New Jersey. They must smoke in private spaces. However, landlords may prohibit weed consumption on their property.

Super Chix is a rapidly growing fast-casual restaurant chain, and for good reason. Their freshly-prepared, never-frozen approach to chicken has drawn comparisons to chains like Five Guys — a step up from fast food while maintaining a casual dining experience.
The first 2 Super Chix locations in New Jersey have arrived in Morris County. Their East Hanover location opened in September 2022, and the new Rockaway Township location debuted in March 2023 in the Rockaway Townsquare Mall complex.
You’ve likely read about Super Chix’s NJ openings on social media or in local restaurant news. But what should you order when you go, and what can you expect from your visit
The atmosphere at Super Chix restaurants is clean and casual. The interior features bright yellow overhead vents and a mix of stainless steel and wood-grain decor. The order counter provides an open look into the kitchen and food preparation area.
Once you’ve ordered, grab a seat and the staff will deliver the food to your table. There’s a solid array of sauces for your chicken filet or tenders, like Korean BBQ and honey mustard.
Frequent diners enjoy a punch card service that offers free fries on your 3rd visit, free custard on the 6th trip, and a free chicken sandwich or other entree with your ninth order. Delivery options are easily found online.
The menu at Super Chix isn’t overwhelming, but you still might need help narrowing down your options on a first visit. Here are a few menu items that stand out from the pack.
The Super Chix Nashville Hot is a true chicken sandwich classic. Every Super Chix chicken sandwich is available breaded or grilled — order your Nashville Hot chicken breaded for that classic southern comfort feeling.
The Bacavo Ranch is a chicken sandwich served with bacon, avocado, lettuce and tomato. It’s topped with buttermilk ranch, and best experienced with a grilled chicken filet.
Dinner guests can order fries with various seasonings. The rosemary pepper fries are far and away the best choice and taste great with or without ketchup. If you desire a more unique side dish, give the fried pickles a try.
Sometimes a classic option is the best. The Super Chix vanilla custard is a proprietary blend with a hint of bourbon in the aftertaste. There are Cold Fusions available that mix your selected custard flavor with mix-ins like Mint Oreo and Pretzel M&Ms.
The Super Chix Crispy Avocado Salad is topped with two half avocados, each breaded and stuffed with gouda cheese for a full-bodied taste you’d never expect in a vegetarian salad. Fresno peppers and jalapeno ranch dressing provide the perfect amount of kick.
