• Advanced Diagnostic Assessment – Comprehensive biomechanical and functional evaluation

• Orthopedic Manual Therapy – Specialized hands-on techniques for soft-tissue and joint dysfunction

• Movement Analysis – Evaluation of functional movement patterns and compensation

Medical-Legal Documentation – Thorough reporting for workers' comp and personal injury cases
