PREHAB

Taking on a proactive approach before surgery is highly recommended. Establishing a solid foundation prior to the operation can significantly impact your overall performance/timeline of recovery.

We are here to help you build this foundation. With a complete picture of your recovery timeline in front of us, we can create a comprehensive rehabilitation plan for you pre- and post-surgery to lead to the best possible outcome.

POST-OP

Once you’ve undergone surgery, we will execute a personalized treatment plan to get you back to competing.

Our therapists have experience working with an array of post-operative patients. Some examples include reconstruction/repair operations of SLAP, UCL, ACL, PCL, MPFL, Achilles, tendon ruptures and bone fractures.

Throughout your course of rehab, we will guide you through each crucial step along the way, including:

Single limb control
Sport specific movements
Plyometric and agility activity
Progressive strength training and increase workload capacity
Regaining range of motion and early pain/swelling management
