Services
Aquatic Physical Therapy
Our aquatic therapy utilizes controlled pool environments to improve mobility and reduce pain. Warm-water pools decrease joint stress while resistance training builds strength safely. Patients benefit from reduced gravity impact during rehabilitation from injuries, surgeries, or chronic conditions like arthritis, with measurable improvements in range of motion and functional capacity.
Manual Therapy
Skilled manual techniques address musculoskeletal dysfunction through targeted joint mobilization and soft tissue manipulation. Our therapists use hands-on interventions to improve circulation, reduce inflammation, and restore normal movement patterns. This approach effectively treats chronic pain, postural imbalances, and movement restrictions resulting from injury or degenerative conditions.
Pediatric Physical Therapy
Specialized programs help children develop motor skills and improve mobility through play-based aquatic activities. Our therapists create engaging therapy sessions that build strength and confidence while addressing developmental delays or physical disabilities. Parents receive guidance for continuing therapeutic techniques at home to maximize progress.
Home Therapy Sessions
Certified therapists provide personalized treatment plans in patients' homes for those with limited mobility. This service maintains continuity of care through adapted exercises using household items, with modifications for home environments. We focus on functional independence in daily activities while ensuring safety in familiar surroundings.
Geriatric Rehabilitation
Tailored programs address age-related mobility challenges and post-fall recovery. Aquatic therapy improves balance and strength safely for seniors, while manual techniques alleviate chronic pain from arthritis or osteoporosis. Our approach maintains independence through fall prevention strategies and adaptive movement techniques.

Laura is incredibly knowledgable and thoughtful in her approach. My teenage son had a serious knee injury (patellar tendon rupture and broke his tibia) and, over the course of about 3 months, Laura was cautious yet worked him through a wide range of exercises primarily in the pool when he was not able to do much on land, and then in the weight room. She made it fun, and most importantly, he progressed safely and quickly in his recovery. During the pool PT portion of my son's recovery, Laura collaborated beautifully, and multiple times, with another physical therapist who saw my son as well as the

I was in town visiting family and complained of lingering pain in my wrist. My cousin suggested that I reach out to Laura Diamond. It was a Sunday, and she was willing to take time to see me. I gained confidence that my discomfort would finally resolve. The entire experience was way beyond my expectations! Thank you, Laura. I highly recommend her services!!!
