Sports Injuries Rehabilitation

Sports injuries rehabilitation is a service for people with sports-related injuries or who are suffering from degeneration and/or muscle atrophy to the knees, shoulder, spine, hip and foot.

Physical therapists develop therapies to improve overall performance, strength and conditioning, decrease the incidence of repetitive injuries and help athletes remain active and competitive. Components of this program may include:

  • Acute injury assessment and treatment
  • Injury prevention and education
  • Performance enhancement training
  • Strengthening and conditioning
For appointments, a doctor's written prescription is needed and may be sent by fax or mail. Prior authorization by the patient's health plan or insurance carrier may also be needed. Patients will be called to arrange an initial evaluation within 24 hours of receiving the doctor's prescription.
