Available Services
Injury Evaluation Session
We will complete a full health history, evaluation of both acute and chronic musculoskeletal injuries, and a full body movement screening in order to provide the best treatment plan to return you to the activities you love as quickly and safely as possible. During this session we will discuss your goals for returning to sport as well as athlete development, future injury prevention and strength training.
Injury Rehabilitation Session
Injuries are an inherent risk within athletics. Our goal is to return you to your sport or activity as quickly and safely as possible. Using our evaluation of the injury and your full body movement screening, our certified athletic trainers will work to decrease pain as well as improve mobility and strength to ensure a timely return.
Strength & Conditioning Session
Athlete development is an absolute necessity when it comes to improving sports performance. Our NSCA certified strength and conditioning coach will help you set performance goals, optimize body movement mechanics, and efficiently manage progress to get you to that next level and beyond.
Dry Needling
Dry needling is a treatment modality used to decrease pain, improve range of motion and overall promote healing through local, segmental, and systemic effects. Our certified athletic trainers use small, monofilament needles to disrupt muscle tension and trigger point activity to assist in creating the optimal environment for your body to heal and return to activity.
Normatec Recovery Session
Normatec compression therapy is a recovery modality designed to greatly improve recovery time and keep you performing at your highest level. The Normatec compression boots help move the extra fluid in the legs from heavy training sessions or competition back up through the circulatory system to be redistributed throughout the body and allowing fresh blood, oxygen and other nutrients to facilitate healing in your muscles.
Mobility Treatment Session
Our mobility sessions are designed to reduce pain, improve range of motion, and promote injury prevention. These sessions will typically involve cupping, soft-tissue mobilization, myofascial release, and/or stretching.
