What is Physical Therapy,
Sports & Performance?
Physical therapy services are often provided to people who are dealing with injuries related to sports or other activities. Physical therapists are licensed professionals who have acquired their master's degree or a clinical doctorate degree.
How Does PT help?
Physical therapy treatment can relieve many different types of injuries that occur from sports or any other activities that require physical exertion. The idea behind PT is to fix an injury as quickly and effectively as possible, in order to prevent further injuries or increased pain.
Physical therapists are also trained to treat strokes, fractures, spinal cord injuries, carpal tunnel syndrome, amputations, arthritis, and more.

What to Expect During Treatment?
Physical therapists are trained to use different tactics in order to relieve pain or stiffness, and increase range of motion, strength and mobility. These treatments include heat, ice, ultrasound, electrical stimulation, therapeutic exercise, and more.
Does the Treatment Hurt?
The injuries related to sports injuries or other injuries may cause mild to extreme pain to your body, however, physical therapy treatment for these injuries is meant to help relieve the pain. Treatment after such injuries doesn’t make the pain worse, it helps reduce it, and over time it may totally stop the pain.
How long Does it Take to See Results?
The timing of the treatment really depends on the type of injury that is being treated. Generally speaking, treatment can last as little as 2 weeks or as long as 12 weeks. However every person will be different. There is no one size fits all.
Physical therapists are trained to evaluate the injuries presented and decide how to quickly and effectively treat them.

For most patients, there are no negative side effects after receiving PT treatment. However, if a patient suffers from severe osteoporosis, an increased risk of stroke, cancer in the spine, numbness, tingling, or loss of strength in your arm, it is advised that you do not receive PT treatment.
