Sister Kenny Rehabilitation Institute physical therapists work with people who, because of an injury or illness, have had a change or loss in their ability to function physically. After a thorough evaluation, a physical therapist guide individuals through a wide range of treatments and individual exercises designed to:

  • increase strength, flexibility and range of motion
  • prevent re-injury

We have seven private physical therapy rooms for evaluation and treatment from experienced therapists. Patients will find huge windows and natural lighting create an energizing atmosphere in our new gym. Patients get to use the most advanced equipment available, thanks to a generous donation from CYBEX International, a local company and a leading manufacturer of exercise equipment.
