This approach is valuable for spotting issues we can resolve with certain exercises. What's more, we use a sophisticated professional platform to analyze your swing, gait or running form. And we can electronically share the video analysis with your coach or trainer.We have a dedicated Sports Performance Zone. Want to take your skills to the next level? This unique program combines traditional physical therapy with sports performance. Our team creates a personalized rehab program for you, then monitors your progress. We conduct tests and evaluations to determine when it's safe for you to get back on the field or the court. And our facility features everything from Olympic-standard lifting equipment to a turf track for strength, agility, mobility and speed training.We offer a special sports group. Are you a high-level weekend warrior? College athlete? Or do you have a physically demanding job, like construction? You're comfortable being part of a team and thrive on friendly competition. Join our return-to-sport group and you'll get all that and more as you build up your endurance. Classes are two hours and meet twice a week.

Low-Dose Radiation Therapy for Musculoskeletal Conditions
Radiation therapy isn’t only for cancer. It can treat a number of non-cancerous conditions, too. At Luminis Health, our low-dose radiation therapy (LDRT) program for benign conditions offers a non-invasive treatment option that’s safe and effective.
"Low-dose radiation therapy is a noninvasive option that targets the affected tissues in these benign conditions. It helps reduce cell growth, inflammation, and pain while promoting healing and preventing recurrence."
-- Dr. Amar Rewari, Chief of Radiation Oncology and Medical Director of the LDRT Program at Luminis Health.
What is Low-Dose Radiation Therapy (LDRT)?
Lose-dose radiation therapy, or low-dose radiotherapy, helps reduce pain and stiffness caused by inflammatory and degenerative conditions of the tendons, joints and other soft tissues. It uses targeted X-rays to turn on the body’s anti-inflammatory response, which helps relieve symptoms and restore movement.
Benefits of LDRT
LDRT can be a good option for people with mild, early-stage inflammatory and degenerative conditions who haven’t been helped by conservative treatments and want to avoid surgery. Treatment with low-dose radiotherapy is painless and performed quickly. Each session lasts about 10 minutes, and sessions are typically performed two to three times a week. Choosing to have low-dose radiation therapy also doesn’t eliminate surgery or other treatment options for you down the road.
