our programs – and a home program that we can create
for you – you can restore motion, reduce pain, and
improve function of bothersome joints. |

A stroke can make getting around a difficult chore. We
offer treatments to improve deficits left after a stroke,

training. |

Balance and Gait Training
A debilitating fall is one of the leading causes of loss
of function in a senior’s life. By evaluating your
strength and balance, we can help you recover from a fall—or
even help prevent a fall in the future. By determining
your risk of falling, as well as your strength and range-of-motion
deficits and balance and gait problems, we can create
a specific program for you that addresses areas that need
improvement. |

Vestibular Rehab
Patients with inner ear disorders can experience significant disabling symptoms such as dizziness, balance disorders and visual motor disturbances. Many of these symptoms can lead to a reduction in activity levels and quality of life.
Dizziness and disequilibrium due to peripheral vestibular pathology can be treated with vestibular rehabilitation. Research shows that vestibular rehabilitation/balance retraining therapy can significantly reduce a patient's symptoms and lead to 1) A decrease or elimination of dizziness, 2) An increase in balance function and safety, 3) Improved visual motor control, 4) and an increase in general activity level. Marcelle A. Flores, DPT is trained to treat dysfunction of the vestibular system.

Golf Conditioning
A common denominator to a consistent, repeatable and efficient swing is conditioning. Whether you are a recreational player or professional, a junior, senior, man or woman, you have unique strengths and weaknesses. Of the hundreds of training devices on the market today, not one is more effective at improving your overall ability to play the game of golf better than your own body. Golfers are athletes and should be treated as such. Flexibility and strength are two variables of the conditioning equation that provide and contribute to the mobility, stability, posture, balance, power, endurance and ultimately, the coordination needed for an efficient golf swing. Proper conditioning maximizes your ability to play the game.
As a golfer and Physical Therapist specializing in Golf Conditioning, Injury Prevention and Orthopedic Rehabilitation John Hinds, PT understands the game and the biomechanics involved. All exercises he teaches are biomechanically sound and safe, meaning they are effective in accomplishing their intended goal while NOT placing undue stress in other areas, such as the vulnerable back, neck or shoulders. He utilizes a scientific and practical approach in the golf conditioning programs and does not claim to reveal any secrets or promise Tigeresque drives.
