Athletes often have to withstand intense forces to very specific areas of the body. Think of a pitcher, throwing hundreds of throws that put torque on the elbow and shoulders. Or a breaststroke swimmer, repeatedly moving their legs in ways that push the knees laterally. These types of repetitive motions often lead to overuse injuries. To prevent this, strengthening and stretching exercises aimed at specific movements are important.
Sports medicine is used to restore motion, strength, and ability after injuries. Physical therapists often treat injuries similar to sports injuries, and this expertise, when combined with a sports rehabilitation certification and specialty, can offer many advantages for patients.

Why choose sports physical therapy?
There are many benefits of choosing sports rehabilitation, whether to treat an injury, prevent an injury, or gain general strength and flexibility. Some benefits of sports physical therapy include:
Functional Testing
When you begin sports therapy, one of our trained experts will perform a series of tests that are similar to the motions necessary for your sport. This will determine pain points as well as your strengths and weaknesses to allow our experts to develop a plan specifically for you and the unique needs of your sport. This helps to build strength and mobility in the right areas.
Injury Prevention
Sports medicine can help to prevent injuries within your sport. By mimicking specific motions and building a training or rehabilitation plan around your position in your sport, we can minimize the chances of overuse injuries and the injuries that result from poor form when fitness levels are low.
Injury Treatment
Functional testing information is used by our skilled professionals to help develop a treatment plan that is tailored to the needs of the sport. This helps ensure that when you return to sports, your body is not just healed, but can withstand the needs of the activity.
