"We Help Older Adults Who Are Struggling To Stay Independent Regain Balance, Strength, and Mobility So That They Can Enjoy

A Safe and Active Life at Home and in the Community"

If you are an older adult or family or friend of an older adult, you know that deep down inside, there is the heart and soul of an active, independent person.  Their fortune of living into their "Golden Years" has left them with the misfortune of developing some "rust" on that gold. 

​

We believe that you can get better at any age.  We believe that struggling to take care of yourself is never a "natural" part of aging.  We believe that people who are considered "old" by society's standards are rarely given a chance to remain active and mobile because they are deemed fragile. 

 

Not so fast!! 

 

Achieva Rehab's In-Home Physical Therapy Program was developed by Joel Digris, physical therapist, to prove one thing - folks in their "Golden Years" can thrive no matter what they've been through.  Every human has a top-end potential, a ceiling of sorts.  The therapists with Achieva Rehab are pushing seniors to meet that potential every day, helping them ease the worry of losing independence and mobility.  My mother always said:  "Better days ahead".  No matter what your age or problem, there are better days ahead with Achieva Rehab.  You can find our amazing therapists in homes in Schuylkill County, Luzerne County, and Carbon County as well as at the best personal care homes in Nesquehoning and Tower City, PA.
