FAQ 

What is sports physical therapy, and who can benefit from it?

Sports physical therapy focuses on preventing, diagnosing, and treating sports-related injuries while enhancing performance. It’s not just for professional athletes—anyone involved in physical activities, from weekend joggers to high school athletes, can benefit from sports therapy.  

How does sports physical therapy differ from general physical therapy?

While both aim to improve movement and recovery, sports therapy specifically targets the needs of active individuals and athletes. It emphasizes sport-specific rehabilitation, injury prevention, and performance enhancement to help you get back to your sport stronger and safer.  

How long does sports therapy typically take?

The duration of sports therapy depends on the severity of your injury, your recovery goals, and your dedication to the rehabilitation program. While minor injuries may require just a few weeks of therapy, more complex injuries or post-surgical cases can take several months. Your therapist will create a personalized timeline based on your progress.
