Goodbye repetitive low back injuries and hip and leg pain and hello health. Using balance balls, wobble boards, and various other in-office exercises, we will help you get the four regions of your core strength firing once again.

Home Exercise Programs

With every hyperathlete’s treatment plan comes home care and special attention to detail while away from our office. Giving you the tools to succeed while away from our care, we offer solutions from simple exercises to difficult and tricky balancing drills to maintain your health without losing the fun.

Medical Running-Specific Video Gait Analysis

With 1000 foot impacts per mile, we can speed you up by smoothing out your technique errors. We use full body video gait analysis from various angles to medically custom tailor a treatment plan of drills and gait changes from your hand motion to your foot placement to help you improve your 5k/marathon speeds and keep you injury free.

Shoe & Orthotic Analysis & Prescription

Let us examine you with and without your orthotics during movement and functional testing to ensure that you have the best fit for your feet. Bring in your favorite pair of shoes and we can evaluate if they are doing what you want them to.

Complete Sport-Specific Physiotherapy Programs

When a hyperathlete gets injured and need to get back out there fast, these are the steps to the end goal. A pre-surgical patient wanting to reach their goals before surgery or a post surgical patient wanting to be back in competitions in 12+weeks will need soft tissue care, inflammation control, tissue and capsular stretching and re-education, muscular strengthening, and finally explosive drills and the final sports specific finishing touches to get you to your optimum.

Programs usually include 2-3 visits per week for 8-15 weeks depending on the injury and the hyperathlete’s goal.  Care is dependent on health, goals, and health history.

GameReady® Cryocompression

A Cutting-edge recovery solution to help you get back out there fast. For accelerated recovery after a long race, as a treatment for chronic joint swelling, or if you require an orthopedic surgery. GameReady®  uniquely combines adjustable cold and intermittent compression to deliver the two most difficult-to-manage aspects of RICE in one easy-to-use treatment system that makes it the choice of the Pros.

Proprioceptive Taping

The new “it” on the market, proprioceptive tape helps speed up patient rehabilitation and prevents re-injury. Studies show that this form of taping decreases pain and increases reaction time, position sense, postural stability and awareness, aids blood circulation to the area, and re-educates muscular length to allow our favorite hyperathlete to get their kick back fast.

Troubleshoot potential injuries and ensure a successful season for those on their way to the top. Our physicals are designed to ensure the safety of a child who plays sports and help avoid potential sport-specific risks.
