Athletic Therapy

Athletic Therapists treat individuals of all ages and abilities, from professional athletes to older adults hoping to live more independently. They strive to help people reach their goals, whether that is a return to work, to sport, to prevent future injury, or to make activities of daily living pain-free. They use a blend of hands-on manual therapy and modality application, with a focus on exercise rehabilitation.
