PT @ the JCC is booming!
The JAA’s outpatient physical therapy office, located in the Squirrel Hill Jewish Community Center, is busier than ever. Last year, we recorded over 12,500 patient visits, providing care to individuals of all ages. Our clinicians offer a comprehensive range of rehabilitation services, including manual therapy, orthopedics, neurology, balance training, aquatic therapy, vestibular therapy, Parkinson’s Disease therapy, and post-operative treatment.
Our location in the JCC allows us to offer our patients the unique benefit of utilizing the JCC’s state-of the-art fitness center and warm therapy pool to improve treatment outcomes.
We’re also excited to announce that one of our physical therapists recently earned a certification from the Titleist Performance Institute. This certification enables her to assess golfers’ physical capabilities and identify any limitations affecting their game, expanding our ability to support the community in new ways.
As community partners, we recognize the importance of providing health and wellness education not only to our patients but also to the community at large. To this end, we regularly host educational sessions at the JCC. Recent topics have included fall risk prevention, pickleball injury prevention, assistive device training, conditioning for overhand throwing athletes and swimmers, work ergonomic screenings, low back injury prevention, running shoe assessments, and safe lifting body mechanics.
No doctor referral or JCC membership is required to become a patient. It’s an exciting time for PT @ the JCC Powered by the JAA as we continue to grow and expand our services to this wonderful community!
