About Us
Peak Rehab was created in 2024 with the intention to provide onsite therapy services primarily in assisted living communities. As people age, there are declines in strength, balance, and mobility which can lead to increased assistance from caregivers. Peak Rehab implements skilled therapy services to improve function and prevent declines in mobility.
