Athletic therapy is a profession that takes a whole body approach to the prevention, assessment and rehabilitation of orthopedic injuries. It is built around achieving a "rapid return to work and play" through aggressive but safe treatment protocols.

 

Don't let the name fool you, however - athletic therapy is not just for athletes. Anyone with

an orthopedic injury can benefit from the services provided by a certified athletic therapist.

Using their knowledge, an athletic therapist will start with an initial assessment to

determine the root cause of the symptoms you are experiencing. Treating symptoms will

help with short term relief, but it is solving the problem that will help you on your road to

recovery. Through a combination of manual therapy and exercise prescription, athletic

therapists work with you during the entire recovery process.

 

Not only will athletic therapy help you recover from your injury, but it will help strengthen

your body as a whole. We take you that one step further in your rehabilitation process.

Once you are feeling more confident in yourself and your body's ability, we will take you

through functional training to get you back to your healthy, active lifestyle, no matter your

level of activity.
