As a key member of today’s dynamic health care team, we prescribe a goal-oriented program of evaluation, treatment, and prevention for our patient’s specific needs.
Conditions we treat include but are not limited to:
Falls and fear of falling in our senior population are recognized public health crises.
According to the CDC, falls are the leading cause of injury-related deaths in older adults by a wide margin. Each year, more than two million seniors experience a fall severe enough to necessitate emergency medical treatment. This number along with the associated personal and societal costs of falling is expected to rise as our population ages. Despite these grim statistics, many falls are preventable with professional interventions that address the causes of falling in older adults.
Our expert clinicians are trained in evidence-based interventions that are proven by controlled clinical trials to effectively reduce the number of falls in older adults.
There are other factors that also contribute to falls. Neurological conditions such as Parkinson’s Disease, stroke, multiple sclerosis, brain injury, vestibular disorders, and neuropathy also increase fall risk. Our therapy team is well equipped to address the problems of falling and the fear of falling in individuals living with these conditions.
We work with employers and employees toward preventing work-related injuries, helping to save valuable dollars, lost time, and a lot of pain for both.
Our therapists utilize some of the top testing programs available today, to evaluate potential employees’ physical capabilities of doing their jobs as well as assess ergonomics and provide functional capacity evaluations (FCEs) using the renowned programs including the WorkSTEPS ® Program.
Work hardening, Work Capacity Testing & WorkSTEPS are designed to provide employers with an objective employment testing program that reduces work-place injury incidence and injury costs reduces lost time, and creates accountability for employees and the providers who treat them.
We focus on an active injury prevention approach to helping you:
• We will educate your employees on how to maintain safe work habits. • We will evaluate employees and their environments to ensure safety.
If you’re an employer or any employee who is concerned about work injury please ask any member of our team about our programs that can make a difference for your company’s bottom line.
We provide quality, comprehensive injury plans for every athlete to prevent injuries or suffering from any type of movement or function disorder.
Our movement specialists identify if the way your body moves or your strength levels are contributing to pain, putting you at an increased risk for suffering a shoulder injury, running injury or even a torn ACL that can hold you back from your highest level of athletic performance.
Conditions we treat include but are not limited to:
ACL-Tear Prevention
Shoulder Injury
Runner’s Injury
Runner’s Injury Prevention:
When it comes to running, that starts with a running analysis.
Our advanced technology gives incredible insight into how your body runs. We measure every movement your lower body makes when running, from your ankle all the way up to your hip.
This allows us to break down every aspect of your technique to determine what is holding you back from being your best, fastest, and most pain-free competitor. After that, we prescribe exercises to strengthen your running.
The end result is you become a faster, safer runner, prolonging your running career and getting you better results along the way.
Whether you’re a cross country athlete, an adult competitive runner, or a weekend warrior, if you want to run faster or with less pain, you are in the right place.
Shoulder Injury Prevention:
If you’re an overhead athlete who has ever worried about a shoulder injury like a rotator cuff or labrum tear, a Tommy John injury (which is almost always caused by a bad shoulder), or nerve damage like thoracic outlet syndrome that causes numbness and tingling pain down your arm and hand, and you want to do everything you can to make sure you have a long, injury-free career, you are in the right place.
Physical therapists are movement specialists that have doctorate-level training in assessing, analyzing, and treating movement disorders using the power of your own body.
By knowing exactly what to look for, and how to fix the problems found, pain and injury can be avoided altogether.
ACL Tear Prevention:
There are four key predictors for ACL-tears: strength and power, strength symmetry, and body control.
Strength and power are critical for both athletic performance and injury prevention.
Strength and power symmetry refers to how similar your strength and power levels are between legs. Nobody is 100% the same on both sides, but if one of your legs is significantly stronger or more powerful than the other, your body compensates in ways that put you at increased risk for getting hurt.
Body control is the most well known of these risk factors. Knees that cave in when you run, jump, and make cuts increase the likelihood of injury.
Testing each of these factors gives you a clear idea of your strengths and weaknesses and highlights exactly what you need to work on to remove as much ACL-tear risk as possible.
If you want to know the truth about how your body works, and if you want to prevent a devastating, life-changing injury, this ACL-tear risk assessment is for you.

Initially, I thought I was going to be a spectacle whilst working alongside others at Silver Creek. My trepidation was removed after working with the staff and found kindred spirits around me with the same focus - to feel better. That is exactly what happened. I have been to both the older building and now the newer facility, and all is clean, organized and most of all, efficient. When I throw something out and injure myself, the last thing I need is an interruption of my schedule. But I always walked out of there feeling so much better. Don't be afraid to ask questions, make suggestions, etc. They are knowledgeable in the function of muscles and bone.

I went for PT after shoulder surgery and received excellent care. I loved my therapist, and everyone there was friendly and helpful. My shoulder is back to 100% - no pain, and complete range of motion. I highly recommend Silver Creek and would definitely go back if I ever need more PT.

I highly recommended Silver Creek Fitness to anyone for physical therapy service. I went to Silver Creek Fitness for two different occasions. After received a total knee replacement , I went there for knee therapy service and Dr. Usha was my physical therapist who is very knowledgeable, caring and professional.
With Usha’s treatment and assistance, I was able to reach my doctor’s goal expectation as I was able to bend my injured knee to 120 degrees with no pain and with no problems.
The second time I went back to Silver Creek Fitness for my hand therapy service.
I received a trigger finger surgery and asked my doctor for a referral to Silver Creek Fitness.
I also asked for Dr. Usha for the hand therapy service at Silver Creek Fitness . After the PT treatment, I am able to bend my fingers smoothly without any pains.
Besides thanking Dr. Usha, I also want to thank her assistance, Eric , for his instruction on the numerous machines and exercises.
Lastly, I like to thank Meredith, the front desk staff, who is very friendly and professional as she always returned my calls in a timely manner.
Many, many thanks again.

I had a course of eight physical therapy appointments at Silver Creek Fitness and Physical Therapy in Newark following knee replacement surgery in February, 2020. I worked with physical therapists, Usha and Ray, with aides, Eric and Gabby, and with receptionist, Meredith. Each one of them treated me politely, professionally, and compassionately. They trained me to do the many exercises that restored my function. I credit them with helping me achieve an excellent post-operative result.
UPDATE:
I needed the OTHER knee replaced at the end of September, 2021. I had such a good experience at Silver Creek Fitness and Physical Therapy following my first knee replacement in 2020 that I returned for rehab of the second knee. I was happy to see that both Usha and Ray are still there, and I received from them the same great care I got the first time around. The support staff has changed since my first rehab. The aides, Jonathan, Connie, and Reggie, and the receptionist, Tanya, treated me with the same professional, respectful, warm, and friendly help that I got in 2020. I will not miss rehab, but I WILL miss seeing these nice people regularly.
