Imagine being pain free!


Just a reminder today that pain is not a normal part of life, it is an indicator that something is wrong. We commonly work with people who felt like their pain (back, neck, knee etc.) was just part of getting older. That is absolutely not the case. If you're dealing with any kind of pain we strongly recommend you do something about it before it gets worse. We are here to help if you have any questions about how to get started in becoming pain free.

New Equipment at Brockton PT



We are now using the LiteGait in our clinic and it is proving to be a very valuable tool in delivering results to our patients. The LiteGait is a gait training device that promotes the development of normal walking patterns.


This equipment allows our therapists to observe gait and make manual corrections in limb placement, weight shift, and step timing. The harness system eliminates risk and fear of falling and allows us to progress through a range of weight-bearing from non to full weight.


LiteGait can be used with a wide range of impairments including stroke, spinal cord injuries, Traumatic brain injuries, amputees and other orthopedic and neurological conditions.
