At Functional Transformation Mobile Rehab, our goal in Occupational Therapy is to restore your ability to perform daily tasks as independently as possible. These tasks include basic activities essential to daily living, as well as the instrumental activities of daily living.

You may think that a Physical Therapist and Occupational Therapist both perform the same tasks, but there are actually some clear differences between the two.
Lymphedema appears as swelling in the arms or legs, and is caused by blockage in your lymphatic system. The lymphatic system is part of your immune and circulatory systems, and lymphedema usually pops up after there has been damage to this system, or if your lymph nodes have been removed. This condition is most commonly seen in post cancer treatment patients.
In addition to swelling, lymphedema can present itself as pain and discomfort in the areas that are swollen. The most common treatments for this condition include exercise, wrapping, massages, and compression.
The National Lymphedema Network is a great resource for more information about lymphedema, including how to prevent and manage this condition. Whether you are a patient, health professional, or simply would like to know more about this condition and what you can do to help, the National Lymphedema Network has the tools you need to get started.

Functional Transformation Mobile Rehab is now certified in PWR – Parkinson’s Wellness Recovery. This program allows us to work with patients living with Parkinson’s and the everyday challenges you face. PWR can help slow the progressional effects of Parkinson’s. Our certified therapist will come out and work with you to design your wellness PWR program to fit you. Want to know more about what PWR!Moves is all about?
PWR!Moves are the core of our PD-specific functional exercise and physical therapy programs. The Basic 4 PWR!Moves are designed to each target a skill known to deteriorate in people with Parkinson disease, which often lead to loss of mobility and function. The PWR!Moves can be practiced in multiple positions, made progressively more physically and cognitively challenging, and be used differently to target each person’s unique symptoms individually.
PWR!Moves help you mitigate symptoms and rebuild functionality, no matter how you incorporate them into your life. They’re beneficial in stand-alone group exercise classes, integrated into your daily activities and routines (such as activities of daily living, recreation, sports, and hobbies), in physical and exercise therapy settings.
