Sports Medicine

Whether you need to run faster, jump higher, get stronger, or recover from an injury – our sports therapy services can help you get back in the game! When injuries do occur, our therapists can offer expert management of joint, muscle, bone, and other problems. We can help enhance athletic performance and physical fitness, prevent acute and chronic injuries, and extend athletic careers.

Sports therapy services include but are not limited to the following:

  • Hydrostatic Strengthening – Controlled strengthening through the entire joint range of motion in order to improve body mechanics in preparation for return to play and decrease risk of re-injury.
  • Manual Joint Mobilizations – Manual techniques used to stretch a joint in order to improve range of motion, neuromuscular control of that joint, reduce muscle spasm and decrease pain.
  • Therapeutic Exercise – Used to increase strength and/or range of motion of a joint or large muscle groups.
  • Passive Range of Motion/Manual Stretching – Used when a patient is unable to move a joint through its full range of motion.
  • Balance Training – Training use to improve an athletes static balance (sitting, standing still, or holding a certain position) and dynamic balance (keeping your balance while moving).
  • Soft Tissue Mobilization – Targets the soft tissues in order to improve tissue extensibility, increase circulation, reduce muscle spasm and decrease pain.
  • Myofascial Trigger Point Release – Targets the hypersensitive nodules, which can be a source of pain, and using manual techniques to release the nodules in order to improve tissue extensibility, increase circulation, reduce muscle spasm and decrease pain.
  • Kinesio® Taping – Used to facilitate the body’s natural healing process while allowing support and stability to muscles and joints without restricting the body’s range of motion.
  • Therapeutic Cupping – Used to target fascial adhesions in order to allow full range of motion without restrictive soft tissue limitations.
  • Dry Needling - Targets hypersensitive nodules in muscle in order to improve tissue extensibility, increase circulation, reduce muscle spasm and decrease pain.
