Berkana’s Story

Berkana is the vision of local rehabilitation professionals and community members that recognize the importance of using evidence-based practice in physical rehabilitation and in treating individuals using a whole-body approach.

At Berkana we believe that all individuals should have access to high quality rehabilitation services. Therefore, Berkana will reach out to the communities it serves through fund-raising events to ensure that those without insurance or who are facing rehabilitation needs that are not covered fully by their insurance will have access to the services we provide.

Our Name and Logo

Berkana is a Celtic word meaning “the transformation of beings into their new form.” This name is especially fitting since our first objective at Berkana is to transform the life of each individual by helping them reach their highest potential.

The three birch leaves in our logo are also rooted in Celtic symbolism. The adaptability of the birch demonstrates remarkable sustainability in harsh conditions as well as the ability to adapt and thrive in new conditions. At Berkana, we believe that the human spirit is remarkable and demonstrates the same natural attributes as the birch tree. Our purpose at Berkana is to help individuals thrive and grow despite the new challenges they face.

The selection of three leaves, graphically rooted in the rehabilitation institute, is used to represent the clinical, research and educational components of Berkana. The grouping of the three leaves together also represents community. This concept of community was important in the design of the logo since Berkana is being built for the community by the community.
