Physical Therapy

Our physical therapy programs address musculoskeletal and neurological conditions through evidence-based interventions. Licensed therapists employ manual techniques, therapeutic exercises, and modalities like ultrasound and electrical stimulation to restore mobility and reduce pain. Treatment plans adapt through acute, rehabilitative, and active care phases, incorporating posture training and functional movement patterns to prevent re-injury and enhance long-term wellness outcomes.

Chiropractic Care

Board-certified chiropractors provide non-invasive treatment for spinal and extremity pain using precise manual adjustments. This approach addresses conditions like sciatica, herniated discs, and sports injuries by improving joint mobility and nervous system function. Care integrates diagnostic imaging, therapeutic exercises, and ergonomic counseling to achieve lasting pain relief without pharmaceutical interventions.

Acupuncture

Certified practitioners administer acupuncture treatments to alleviate chronic pain, migraines, and musculoskeletal disorders by stimulating specific meridian points. FDA-regulated needles promote natural painkiller production and energy flow, complementing conventional therapies. Sessions follow strict sterility protocols and incorporate traditional Chinese medicine principles for holistic symptom management.

Kinesio Taping

The Kinesio Taping Method provides muscular and joint support while maintaining full range of motion. This technique reduces inflammation, enhances circulation, and facilitates lymphatic drainage through specialized elastic tape applications. It benefits acute injuries, chronic conditions, and athletic performance by creating decompressive space in soft tissues.

Trigger Point Injections

Targeted injections deliver local anesthetics to hyperirritable muscle knots causing referred pain. This treatment rapidly alleviates myofascial pain syndromes, fibromyalgia symptoms, and chronic tension by breaking pain cycles and restoring normal muscle function. Sessions integrate post-injection stretching protocols to maximize therapeutic effects and prevent recurrence.

The service is always very good. They take their time with you, they are very caring and patient. I love they have appointments from very early to later on at night. I highly recommend this place, even got my dad to go to help with his back issues!

Staff is very professional and kind. Doctors really know their stuff. Was apprehensive in the beginning. I suffered a ruptured quad tendon and the rehabilitation is long and painful. The rehabilitation therapy I received there allowed me to regain my range of motion weeks ahead of schedule. I would definitely recommend them to my friends and family.

I am extremely impressed with this practice. I was delighted to find multidisciplinary services offered within one practice and within walking distance from my home. The office is very well run and all the practitioners I am working with are professional, highly trained, and personable. The facility is well-maintained with all the needed sanitary precautions during this very challenging time. I feel like I am finally on the right track to addressing my rehabilitation needs.

I have been to a few different chiropractors over the years and after one visit at Forest Hills Rehabilitation I can say this is the best experience I have ever had. Even after just one visit I felt better than I had in months. The office is very clean and updated, the exam was thorough (I met with both Dr. Van Daly & Joe the Nurse Practitioner). It was very comprehensive and I was not rushed. I do not feel like I was pushed into an excessive amount of treatments for money purposes or anything, and I feel Dr. Van Daly was very honest with me in regards to my treatment plan and what is needed going forward.

In addition, I finally have some sort of idea of what's wrong with my back and why after so many years of treatment it hasn't actually improved with other providers! With the combination of chiropractic + physical therapy (also offered in office) I am excited to see some results!
