Sentara Therapy Center – Suffolk YMCA

Sentara Therapy Center – Suffolk YMCA is located within the Suffolk YMCA. The pool and exercise equipment at the YMCA enhance our therapy options. Sentara Obici Hospital therapy and rehab patients can access the aquatic therapy program. Patients with debilitating conditions, such as arthritis and chronic back pain, are allowed pool privileges for general strengthening and conditioning with less stress on the joints. Patients also benefit from access to YMCA exercise equipment. In addition to the YMCA exercise equipment, we also have our own clinical equipment for our patients.

All our licensed physical therapists evaluate and treat a variety of patients with orthopedic and neurological conditions. We emphasize maximizing functional mobility and quality of life.
