Injury Prevention & Sports Rehab

Looking for a sports performance program to help you stay healthy?

Many people think that stretching is enough to minimize injury and keep you healthy however there are essential things to do off the field to ensure they are playing to the best of their ability. Injury prevention training is the best way to stay off the injury list and not miss any games.

Here at Supreme Physical Therapy we will create a strength, agility, and endurance training program centered on the demands of your particular sport. Prior to the start of our injury prevention program, a full body assessment will be completed to identify any limitations as we prepare a sports rehab program designed specifically for you. Nobody wants to be on the sideline, let our physical therapists help you stay at the top of your game!

All sports have a risk of injury. Fortunately for the vast majority of youth, the benefits of sports participation outweigh the risks. Most injuries in young athletes are due to overuse or improper landing mechanics. Our injury prevention program will reduce this risk by improving balance, speed, coordination, and movement patterns.

The most frequent types of sports injuries are sprains (injuries to ligaments), strains (injuries to muscles), and stress fractures (injuries to bones). Injury occurs when excessive stress is placed on tendons, joints, bones, and muscle. In a growing child, point tenderness over a bone should be evaluated further by a medical provider even if there is minimal swelling or limitation in motion. Contact your pediatrician if you have additional questions or concerns.
