FOX Therapy - Stronger Living

At FOX, we believe in our patients and their ability to achieve what they once thought impossible—optimal function to rehabilitate their lives. FOX is a physical and occupational therapy and speech-language pathology private practice, specializing in house calls for older adults. Our goal is to help the aging population live stronger, longer lives— enjoying their communities, families, and friends with as much comfort and independence as possible.

Unlike any therapy out there

FOX works the body, encourages the spirit, and honors the person. Our tools are clinical expertise, passion, empathy, engagement, responsiveness, listening, and laughter. We believe for one to have lasting improved health, one must heal completely, in their own time. Our clinicians are experienced in helping treat impairments relating to almost any ailment or diagnosis common in older adults including: cardiac, neurologic, orthopedic, pulmonary, and oncologic. Additionally, we can help with general diagnoses of weakness, atrophy, difficulty walking, or other debilitations. The good news is, a large number of our older adult patients can significantly improve their current functional status with a short duration of care.

FOX Therapy is part of our Memory Care neighborhood too!

Because muscles don’t get dementia, residents in the Memory Care Neighborhood also participate.

Fox Exercise Physiology

Wellness Beyond Therapy

FOX exercise physiologists take functional wellness to the next level. These health professionals administer exercise stress tests to evaluate our patients’ overall health, with special attention to cardiovascular function and metabolism. Based on results, they develop individualized exercise prescriptions to increase physical strength, endurance, flexibility, and balance. These programs help patients with heart disease and other chronic conditions, like diabetes, pulmonary (lung) disease, peripheral vascular disease, and hypertension, to regain their health. Wellness services can be provided individually in the home or in a community- based group setting.

  • Endurance
  • Strength
