Sports Injury Rehabilitation

What is Sports Injury Rehabilitation?

People of all ages with musculoskeletal pain, injury, or illness can benefit from sports rehabilitation. Recovering from a sports injury requires strength and conditioning work. as well as the right mindset. In addition to helping you recover from injury and reduce pain, sports rehabilitation utilizes exercises, movements, and therapeutic interventions to help you get back in the game.

UR Medicine's Approach

UR Medicine’s Sports and Spine Rehabilitation Center is staffed with highly trained physical therapists, certified athletic trainers, and other specialists.

A full physical exam will evaluate your strength, function, range of motion, and level of pain. We use advanced diagnostic procedures to find the full extent of your injury. With this information, we can decide which treatment approach will have the best outcome for you.

Building Your "Return-To Play" Plan

Your therapist will work with you to create a personalized plan for recovery, focusing on the kinds of movements you make routinely in your sport to help minimize your risk for re-injury. We track your progress and provide useful feedback, so you always know exactly where you are in your recovery and what kind of effort will be required to keep you on track. Your therapist will recommend exercises and assistive devices that will help you, as well as activities to avoid while you recover.

We also teach our patients to enhance their rehabilitation at home or school, keeping visits to a minimum while maximizing progress.
