    VitalStim® - A Revolutionary Therapy for Re-Educating Swallowing Muscles


    VitalStim® Therapy uses small
    electrical currents to stimulate
    swallowing muscles while trained
    specialists help patients re-educate
    their muscles through therapy
    with a licensed Speech Therapist.
    VitalStim Therapy is a safe and truly revolutionary new therapy that uses small electrical currents to stimulate the muscles responsible for swallowing. VitalStim Therapy is FDA approved and utilized with other methods of swallowing therapy to "re-educate" the swallowing muscles. VitalStim Therapy can only be administered by a trained and certified VitalStim Therapy Provider. Patients who are unable to swallow very well or unable to swallow at all can now relearn an important function most of us take for granted.

    In today’s society, losing the ability to drive can be devastating. CJW offers a program to help many patients regain their driving skills and independence.

    Assessment & Education Program
    Our DMV-approved, in-depth evaluations and driver training programs are taught by registered occupational therapists who have studied the social, emotional and physiological implications of illness and injury. They evaluate each patient’s medical history and driving record, and assess their physical, cognitive, and sensory motor skills.They can determine whether participants need adaptive equipment and can help people find the appropriate equipment for their personal vehicles.

    Wound Care

    Wound Care

    The Physical Therapy department on the Chippenham campus offers inpatient and outpatient wound care services. We treat a variety of wound diagnoses including but not limited to diabetic foot ulcers, arterial/venous ulcers, pressure ulcers and wounds caused by traumatic injury. We have staff that are nationally certified in wound care. All treatment plans are individualized and take into consideration the patient’s medical history and daily life activities. We treat patients Monday through Saturday.

    For patients suffering from organic or functional voice disorders, we offer specialized assessment and therapeutic strategies. We also treat patients with neurological voice disorders, such as Spasmodic Dysphonia, and offer the Spasmodic Dysphonia Support Group as an extension of this service. We are also licensed to provide the LSVT technique (Lee Silverman Voice Treatment) for the treatment of voice disorders in Parkinson’s patients.
