Professional Treatment For All Sports Injuries
Sports injuries are as diverse as sports themselves. The term refers to injuries that happened while playing sports, although we treat injuries you may incur in the gym, as well, as gym injuries tend to share many similarities with sports injuries (soft tissue damage, overuse injuries, etc.). Some sports injuries also cause head trauma, like skating, gymnastics, and football, but our facility does not treat concussive head injuries. Instead, we focus on the physical and rehabilitative therapy you need to recover from the injury and any medical procedures (like surgery) that you require to treat it.
Our doctors, nurses, and physical therapists don’t just treat elite athletes. Anyone can suffer a sports-related injury, and our goal is to ensure that you receive the high-quality medical care to get you back on your feet and back to your sport.
We also help with preventative treatments. Any sports-related injury may be caused by a lack of preparation, from inadequate warm-ups to poor stretching or trying to do too much too soon. Or, perhaps, you’re using poor equipment, which could yield a devastating injury. We take a holistic approach to quality physical therapy.
We Treat All Major And Minor Sports Injuries
The most common types of sports injuries involve the musculoskeletal system or the skeleton and muscles. We can help you recover from:
- Shin splints
- Knee injuries, including IT band injuries
- Fractures
- Tennis elbow
- Rotator cuff tear
- Sprains and strains
- Joint dislocation
- Strains
We tailor your treatment program to your specific needs, gender, age, and medical history. Some clients may need to begin by recovering basic abilities, like walking or comfortably transitioning from seated to standing or vice versa. Other clients may be focused on returning to peak performance and competing in their preferred sport. We focus on your goals and needs and then develop the best combination of therapies to meet them.
We start with an independent physical exam to determine the extent of the injury, often using imaging tests as well as a physical evaluation. Then, we develop your treatment program. We start with the least-invasive approaches and then consider a more aggressive approach as needed.
Are you ready to return to the sport you love? Don’t let a sports injury sideline you forever. Contact Austin Physical Therapy for a personalized treatment evaluation with our Lakeway sports physical therapist.
