A key feature of NIT is our highly popular ‘single point of referral’ service. With just one phone call or email to our friendly staff will schedule you with the best licensed Physical Therapist, Occupational Therapist or Speech Therapist to meet your exact needs. Many of our therapists hold advanced training certifications in specialized therapy techniques (for instance autism, dementia, wound care, lymphedema and dry needling).
At your initial meeting with your NIT therapist, we will discuss therapy options, decide with you on your therapy goals and draw up a workable care plan to ensure you meet or exceed your expectations.
