We care about your quality of life–and your lifestyle. Whether you are recovering from a sports injury in high school, strengthening your body in midlife, or working to regain function as you age, we are here for you. We will help you maintain the lifestyle you love–and enhance it.
Our expert care team at RVNAhealth offers a suite of therapies to help you regain strength, balance, and ability. We use best practices and evidence-based treatments and outcome measures to help you reach your goals–and you can expect personalized, one-on-one attention.
Our physical therapy (PT) team helps address any pain, weakness, or immobility caused by injury, surgery, illness, or any other life event. We provide the specialized care and treatment you need to regain strength, mobility, and balance.
Whether you are recovering from injury, stroke, or want to regain lost skills, our OTs help you practice what you need to live the most independent life possible. The earlier we begin our work together the better.
The ability to use our voice to communicate is something we all hold sacred. If you are recovering from a stroke, having difficulty swallowing, or managing Parkinson’s disease, ALS, Multiple Sclerosis, or other sensitive conditions that affect your speech, allow us to support you. Our speech therapists offer cognitive training and speech-language retraining to make things easier for you. Help is available. We are just a phone call away.
Are you recovering from joint-replacement surgery, or another significant surgery? Our RVNAhealth care team offers exceptional orthopedic programs to help you return to your day-to-day activities as soon as possible. We specialize in pre- and post-rehabilitative care. And we make it easy for you. We can begin therapy in your home. When you are ready, we can continue your treatment at our state-of-the art outpatient RVNAhealth Therapy Center in Ridgefield, CT.
Are you experiencing dizziness or imbalance? Do you need to hold onto objects when you walk? We can help. Our RVNAhealth care therapists are specially trained in Vestibular Therapy to help resolve or minimize any dizziness and balance concerns.
We understand that falling is a big concern. A fall can be dangerous at any age. This is why our RVNAhealth care team offers a therapy called Otago. Otago is an evidence-based program that reduces the risk of falls and related injuries. It focuses on improving muscle strength, balance, flexibility, and reaction time. And because we personalize all of our care, we tailor our program to your needs. After an initial balance assessment, we design your program to improve your level of functioning.
Our RVNAhealth care team created The Parkinson’s Center to help anyone navigating life with Parkinson’s feel more in control of this difficult diagnosis.
Parkinson’s is hard. Please learn more about how our expertly trained therapists (LSVT BIG® & LOUD® included) support individuals managing this diagnosis. We also offer education, resource support, and group therapy for loved ones and caregivers. Trust us when we say, community helps as you begin this journey. You can find it with us.
Athletes, we get you. Rehabbing a sports injury, regardless of age, is physical and mental. Whether you are healing from injury, trying to increase endurance and strength, training for an event, or expanding your capacity for exercise, our sports therapists and trainers will help you achieve your goals safely and confidently.
RVNAhealth Adaptive Equipment Catalog is where innovation meets empowerment to redefine the possibilities of daily living for individuals with physical challenges. In a world that constantly evolves, so should the tools that support and enhance our lives. This catalog is more than just a collection of products; it’s a gateway to a more accessible, independent, and fulfilling lifestyle.
Assessments
In addition to our rehabilitation therapies, RVNAhealth Therapy Center also offers wellness services targeted at improving your current health and fitness. Our Wellness Services include:
Want to begin running? We can start you on the right foot. Veteran runners, we are here for you too. Our certified care team offers gait analysis and a comprehensive evaluation that includes: video analysis of running mechanics; strength assessment of muscles related to proper mechanics and injury prevention; flexibility assessment; foot and shoe analysis; and an individualized home exercise program based on evaluation results aligned with personal goals.
We know this is a touchy subject. It has been our experience that when a family is working to validate the driving skill set of an individual, improve skills, help maintain independence on the road, or assist in recovery after a medical situation, structured support is helpful.
RVNAhealth’s Fitness to DRIVE program was designed with these needs in mind. Drivers perform a series of in-office assessments for vision, hearing, sensation, cognition, motor skills, and coordination. Upon completion, individuals and their loved ones understand the recommended next steps. If therapy would be helpful, our therapists can offer options to strengthen any physical, occupational, or speech needs.
