Sports Medicine/Training
Sports medicine involves a comprehensive team of health care professionals including physicians, exercise physiologists, athletic trainers, biomechanists, nutritionists, and physical therapists.
Sports physical therapy at Progressive PT emphasizes the prevention, identification, assessment, minimization, and correction of pain and disability associated with athletic injuries. The goal of treatment is to maximize participation and performance.
Our team may use a variety of the following interventions to prevent and treat sports related injuries:

- Taping and bracing
- Sports specific ergonomic and training regimens
- Manual physical therapy
- Orthopedic physical therapy
In addition to prevention and recovery, the road to maximum performance includes a focus on improving speed, agility, explosiveness, balance and coordination.
Any athlete, amateur to professional, can benefit tremendously from our sports training program no matter their sport. Our sports training clients range from football and basketball players to golfers to performance artists and bow-hunters.
