We are located at 225 McWhorter Street Newark, inside the 14,000sq ft state of the art Evolution Fitness Gym.  Here our patients have access to HOIST Equipment. HOIST Fitness Systems is a San Diego, California based company which have developed the best rehabilitation equipment using ride oriented exercise (ROX).  HOIST enables our patients to strengthen certain muscle groups with proper body alignment avoiding straining other body parts.  This is especially crucial to our post surgical patients.
