Vineyard Complementary Medicine (VCM) is celebrating 20 years in the healing community as the only fully integrated bodywork practice on Martha’s Vineyard. Our team includes Physical Therapists, Physical Therapist Assistants, Acupuncturists, and Massage Therapists.  We are a busy, growing year-round clinic, but living in a resort community we typically experience a large increase in patient visits during the summer months.

Our team consists of expertly qualified healthcare specialists who work together, using evidence-supported treatments, on a focused complementary treatment plan. We communicate as a team to ensure each client gets optimal results and rapid pain relief.  We believe our complementary approach is the primary reason why we have a proven track record of helping clients that were previously unsuccessful with other treatments.
