State-of-the-Art Equipment
Hivamat 200 Deep Oscillation Unit
This machine promotes the evacuation of metabolic waste products to the lymphatic drainage system, which increases recovery time following sports injuries and surgical procedures. It works by creating a pulsed electrostatic energy between the therapist’s hands and the affected area, which results in resonant oscillation for a “kneading” effect on the damaged tissue. These electrostatic pulses penetrate to a depth of 8 to 12cm breaking up cytokines and protein build-ups which are evacuated via the lymphatic system. The main fields of application include: The main fields of application include:

Korebalance™ Trainer
Korebalance™ Trainer is fully computerized balance trainer that challenges patients to stand on an unstable platform and perform a series of exercises for eight to twelve minutes. Special software directs workouts, issues a score, and amplifies balance screening, assessment, and training. Korebalance is ideal for strength, flexibility, agility training, orthopedic rehabilitation, fall prevention, and motor-skill training. It is very effective for patients suffering from dizziness and vertigo, multiple sclerosis, ataxia, Parkinson’s disease, and stroke rehabilitation. This rehabilitation tool has revolutionized the treatment of patients with balance disorders and has been an invaluable training tool to athletes at all levels.
Korebalance aids in the following:
- Stimulates the brain and nervous system to improve balance, stability, coordination and posture
- Improves agility, reaction time and motor control
- Makes workouts challenging, fun and interactive
- Improves confidence for seniors decreasing the chances of falling
- Minimizes repetitive stress on joint structures
- Trains the body to respond to an unstable environment (real-life activities)
- Improves muscle strength, flexibility, range of motion
- Rehabilitates and prevent lower-limb injuries. Korebalance “will keep your athletes on the eld”
- Rehabilitates concussions and traumatic brain injury and associated dizziness
- Increases calorie burn because more musculature is recruited
The Korebalance System uses the latest in virtual and interactive technology and offers innovative high-tech balance assessment and training. Backed by 15 years in the medical and sports medicine community, our technology is proven to assess and train balance. Korebalance is a proactive device for training and prevention of injuries.
In-ground Aquatic Therapy Pool
In-ground Aquatic Therapy Pool Equipped with an underwater treadmill, our pool allows for utilization of buoyancy, water resistance, and hydrostatic pressure to build strength, restore joint mobility, and reduce edema. Aquatic therapy significantly reduces weight bearing forces through the spine and lower extremities and will allow your patients to regain function without the pain sometimes associated with exercise on land. In addition, your patients can start the rehabilitation process much faster in water versus land when there are factors such as weightbearing restrictions, mobility limitations, and acute pain.
- Orthopedic Injuries
- Low back pain
- Obesity
- Osteoarthritis
- Fibromyalgia
- Gait and Balance Deficits
Aquatic therapy offers an alternative form of rehabilitation and can be used in conjunction with more traditional outpatient therapies.
Individuals with a variety of disabilities and orthopedic conditions can benefit from participation in aquatic therapy. People with back problems, knee injuries, ankle injuries, and other orthopaedic injuries are just a few of who can benefit from aquatic therapy. While the pool can be used as a tool in most rehabilitation programs it is important to speak with your physician to see if aquatic therapy is right for you. The heat of the pool can be problematic for certain neurological and cardiac conditions. Careful screening and program development by a physical therapist will assure safe participation. Though aquatic therapy is not recommended for certain medical conditions, the vast majority of people can participate. Swimming experience is not necessary.
