"As an Olympian, I've seen many physical therapists and trainers over the years. What I like about ImPackt is their personalized approach and attention to detail. They don't just treat the injury, they help you understand your body and build lasting strength so you can get back to competing with confidence." — Rebekah
Sports injuries are an unfortunate reality for anyone who participates in organized sports, CrossFit, running triathlons, and competitions. Coming back after an injury requires the right treatment plan, along with plenty of commitment and patience.
Nerve pain (sciatica)
The goal of physical therapy is to help you heal from a sports injury as quickly as possible. Proper PT also helps you regain strength and movement in muscles, joints, tendons, and ligaments so your return to sports is faster and safer, with lower risk of reaggravating your injury.
When an injury sidelines you, don’t wait to get the treatment you need. Some sports injuries require just a little rest and recovery, while others will need strength and mobility training to recover health without losing range of motion. The only way to discover the right treatment plan is to start with a proper diagnosis.
Sports Injury Treatment and Goals
Sports injuries can take many forms. The term “sports injury” is all-encompassing to include everything from minor sprains or strains to major injuries that require extensive medical treatment and recovery. You can incur a sports injury on a treadmill or lifting weights at your local gym or out on the competition field as a high school, collegiate, or professional athlete.
At Impackt Physical Therapy we work with patients post-injury to create a treatment plan that helps you get back on the field as quickly as possible. The duration and specifics of each plan are based on your injury diagnosis, and future sports and fitness goals. How long it takes to recover can depend on many factors, including the need for surgery, health history, and injury history.
