Sports Medicine / Orthopedics

Orthopedics is rehabilitation of musculoskeletal injuries either conservatively or post operatively. Restoration of joint movement and strength is vital for full recovery of any injury. Focus on balance, stability, and return to activity is key. Your recovery is specifically focused on individual and lifestyle goals. Common post-operative rehabilitation procedures include: 

Shoulder

  • Shoulder decompression (SAD)
  • Rotator cuff repairs
  • Labrum repairs
  • Bankart repairs
  • Total shoulder replacement

Knee

  • Knee scope
  • Total and partial knee replacements
  • ACL reconstruction
  • Meniscus repair
  • Chondroplasty, micro fractured, cartilage repair

Hip

  • Total hip replacements
  • Labrum repairs

 

Having a good understanding of sports rehabilitation means breaking down the biomechanics of the sport. Sports injuries can be managed conservatively while some require surgery. Many sport injuries are a result of overuse. The goal is to rehabilitate the athlete to his or her optimal level following an injury. Some common non operative diagnoses we treat are: 

Common non operative diagnosis 

  • Shoulder impingement
  • Bursitis (shoulder, knee, hip)
  • Tendonitis (shoulder, knee, hip)
  • Patella femoral pain/knee tracking pain
  • Plantar fasciitis
  • IT band pain (runners knee)
