Sports Injury Rehabilitation
SSPT's sports injury rehabilitation physical therapy services ensure that you are performing at your optimal level—in terms of strength, balance, and control—without creating muscle imbalances. Having worked closely with professional and Olympic athletes, we have a unique understanding of the demands of your sport and how to assess and treat your injury effectively.
Getting you back into the game
Unlike some physical therapy clinics, our evaluation of your sports injury is comprehensive and includes a full biomechanical analysis of your sport performance, linking it to your whole body. This approach allows us to effectively diagnose and treat your pain and—more importantly—its underlying causes, with the goal of returning you to full function and preventing re-injury. A key component of your sports rehabilitation program is also learning strategies to help you avoid injuries in the future.
Working closely with your referring physician, your SSPT therapist will develop an individualized treatment plan based on your specific goals for returning to your pre-injured state. We also provide your physician with regular updates regarding your progress, so problems are identified and addressed quickly. This allows us to help you successfully recover from your injury with a minimum number of treatments and progress to an independent program much sooner.
As an athlete seeking treatment at SSPT, your therapy may include the following elements:
- Biomechanical assessment
- Strengthening exercises
- Technique correction
- Soft tissue mobilization
- Stretching
- Joint mobilization
- Sports strapping and bracing
