Athletes aren't the only ones suffering from sports injuries. Sports injuries occur when anyone (man or woman, young or old) sustains an injury during any organized sporting event, competition, training session, or any other sports-related activity.
Sports injuries such as fractures, strains, and sprains can be caused by a single event, where the injury occurs instantaneously. They can also result from repetitive motion or overuse as is often the case with stress fractures and injuries such as tendinitis.
Our licensed physical therapists, including athletic trainers, provide sports-specific treatment of sports-related injuries, thereby promoting the speedy and effective recovery of professional players, seasoned athletes, and weekend warriors alike.
We also offer Pre-Sports Screening to evaluate the strength, agility, and flexibility of the athlete, to identify muscular and postural imbalance, and to offer injury prevention measures.
If you or your child is engaging in sporting events and sports activities, we strongly recommend a solid warm-up session before the big game.
To avoid sports-related injuries, be sure to warm up before the big game! See our runners stretches to learn some simple exercises you should be doing before engaging in running or jogging activities. They're great general-purpose leg warm ups that can be done prior to playing nearly any sport.
Give us a call at (302) 478-5240 or (302) 655-5877 to discuss our sports injury therapy services. We'll be more than happy to answer any questions you may have or schedule an appointment with one of our physical therapists.
