A major portion of our
practice is devoted to Sports Medicine. Having been an
athlete both in high school and college, understanding
the athlete’s complaints is crucial. The most common sports
related injuries include
Achilles tendon
plantar fascia
injuries
stress fractures
ankle sprains
tendonitis
overuse injuries
The most critical aspect of accurately
treating sports related injuries is a timely diagnosis.
The most difficult aspect of treating the injury is making
the athlete understand that listening to their bodies is
crucial and that rest is the key component to the treatment.
Most sports injuries also require require PT and we tailor
the therapy to meet the individual injury.
Our practice focuses on getting the athlete back on their
feet and we rely heavily on customized sports orthotics to
help reduce recurrences.
