DCH Physical
Rehabilitation is lo-
cated in a new area
built on the south
end of the DCH
Medical Plaza. The
SpineCare Center
and DCH Imaging
are also located in
DCHMedical Plaza.
“DCH Physical
Rehabilitation will
be one of the premier rehabilitation sites
in West Alabama,” said Tim Holbrook,
Physical Therapist and Director of DCH
Physical Rehabilitation. “We are excited
about being able to offer physicians and
their patients this state-of-the-art reha-
bilitation facility.”
Therapy programs include:
● Physical therapy.
● Hand therapy.
● Aquatic therapy.
● Lymphedema therapy.
When patients walk through the doors of DCH Physical Rehabilitation
at DCH Medical Plaza on Ruby Tyler Parkway, the staff wants them
to say, “I’m in the right place.”
DCH PHYSICAL REHABILITATION
IN GOOD HANDS
Special attention to convenience and
privacy went into the design of the new
therapy areas.
“From convenient parking in front of
DCH Physical Rehabilitation, patients will
enter the admissions area, which includes a
spacious waiting room,” Mr. Holbrook said.
The therapy area includes:
● Five private therapy rooms.
● Cardio theater with equipment that
interacts with TVs through headphones.
● Large heated pool.
The aquatic area will have a separate
exterior entrance and separate dressing
rooms, and a privacy wall will separate
the pool from therapy areas.
DCH Physical Rehabilitation therapists
will work with SpineCare Center physi-
cians as well as all other local physicians to
help their patients in many ways, including
reducing pain, promoting increased physi-
cal activity, and restoring function for work
and activities of daily living.
DCH Physical Rehabilitation specialty
programs and services include:
● Industrial therapy.
● Spinal decompression therapy.
● Functional capacity evaluation.
● Pre-hire testing.
● Slender U nutritional classes.
● Back to Life.
“Back to Life will be a big component
of DCH Physical Rehabilitation therapy
services,” Mr. Holbrook said. “Patients
may go through weeks of therapy, and
when they’re through, they may ask, ‘Now
what?’ Back to Life gives patients the op-
tion to continue exercising at DCH Physical
Rehabilitation once they have completed
a therapy program.”
“We’re really excited about our new
wellness-based programs that will be
available after hours,” Mr. Holbrook said.
“These will include exercise programs
such as yoga, Pilates and tai chi.”
