Sports rehabilitation can help you see benefits like:
The Reduction or Elimination of Pain
No one wants to deal with an extended period of pain. Physical therapy helps your body increase blood flow to an injury by keeping the area mobile. The increased blood flow helps reduce swelling and aids in your body’s natural healing process.
When Sports rehabilitation therapy is done by a professional, it can help you reduce or eliminate your pain more quickly. It can also mean that you won’t need to take as much medication to manage pain.
A Faster Recovery
The worst thing for an athlete is to be kept on the sideline of the sport they love. Sports rehabilitation therapy can get you back on the field faster. Whether your injury required surgery or not, improving strength, mobility, and blood flow will help speed up your recovery time.
Improved Mobility
All recoveries are not the same. Just because the pain is gone and a player is back on the field, doesn’t mean they have made a total recovery. Many athletes struggle to return to their previous level after an injury. One of the major factors in this is often the loss of mobility.
Sports Rehabilitation therapy emphasizes healing through movement. This not only helps with the immediate healing process, but also with long-term results. Moriarty Physical Therapy can help you get back to full strength and even reduce your chances of a future injury.
