Specialty Services at Methodist Therapy Services

Cancer Rehab

We work with people undergoing cancer treatment and cancer survivors to address post-operative limitations, energy conservation, home modification, and ways to make daily activities easier while undergoing cancer treatment.

Dizziness/Vertigo

This exercise-based approach is aimed at eliminating or minimizing imbalance and dizziness associated with vestibular (inner ear) disorders.

Headaches

We offer treatment of cervicogenic headaches, or headaches caused by tightness in the neck muscles.

LSVT BIG and LOUD

By exaggerating body motion and speech, this therapy helps minimize impairments caused by Parkinson’s disease.

Manual Therapy

Therapists may use skilled hand movements on joints and soft tissue in order to improve tissue extensibility, increase range of motion, induce relaxation, modulate pain, or reduce swelling.

McKenzie Method

This method provides superior functional outcomes for back, neck, and extremity problems. It emphasizes education and active patient involvement to quickly decrease pain, restore normal function, prevent a recurrence, and minimize other medical interventions.

Occupational Therapy

Our highly certified and experienced occupational therapists work to improve basic motor function and compensate for any permanent loss of function.

Pediatrics

Pediatric therapy works to improve a child’s ability to optimally interact and function in their environment.

Soft Tissue Interventions

This treatment regenerates healthy soft tissue and eliminates or reduces scar tissue that may be causing pain or loss of motion. It is frequently prescribed for athletes, “weekend warriors,” post-surgical patients and chronic sufferers.

Speech Therapy

Speech therapy focuses on improving speech, language, swallowing and cognitive abilities.

TMJ Dysfunction

Temporomandibular joint dysfunction can limit natural jaw function such as chewing and talking and can cause pain. Treatment helps ease pain, regain normal jaw movement, and lessen daily stress on the jaw.

“I am able to physically accomplish whatever I want. I can bike, hike and kayak as I did before the accident. I have no limitations. I owe so much of that to Parkwest Therapy Center. They helped me to regain my strength, ability and confidence.”
