WHAT IS AN ATHLETIC THERAPIST?
You can find an Athletic Therapist at your local high school basketball game, on the sidelines of the Olympics, or in a clinic. No matter where you find them, Athletic Therapists all have one objective: to help you safely return to a healthy, pre-injury life – whether that means playing competitive sports or walking to the mailbox and back.
Consider your Athletic Therapist as a part of your team, but instead of specializing in slap shots or penalty kicks, we specialize in injuries affecting the bones, muscles, and joints. In our world, the perfect hat-trick is when we can help you with injury prevention strategies, assessments, and rehabilitation.
