How does the rehabilitation component of our programs work?
Each of our sport-specific programs provides rehabilitation care for athletes who suffer an injury. Unlike traditional rehabilitation, we offer sports-specific rehabilitation by experts who are familiar with (and often play) your sport and can identify the needs that are critical to your recovery.
We provide:
- Comprehensive injury assessment to investigate the cause of injury (such as trauma, poor mechanics, overuse), review past medical history and discuss personal training goals
- Development of an evidence based therapy program that includes exercises to restore function, improve mobility, relieve pain and prevent or limit physical disabilities
- Coordination of your in-depth therapy sessions with any of your other training activities to avoid overtraining and reduce the risk of re-injury
- Monitoring and adjusting of your personalized plan, as needed, to meet your performance goals

- Level and type of injury
- Cause of injury
- Type and degree of any resulting impairments
- Wound healing and pain management
