Our 3 Step Process:
MOBILIZE
During your sports performance assessment, our specialized providers will perform a thorough examination of your injury with the aim of getting to the ROOT CAUSE of the problem. For example: Foot injury? Might be coming from weakness in the hips. Shoulder injury? Maybe your neck is stiff. Once determined, we’ll use our manual therapy skills and prescribe corrective exercises to mobilize the restricted joints and soft tissues to restore strength and reduce pain.
OPTIMIZE
During this phase, we will evaluate functional movements such as squatting, hinging, lunging, pushing and pulling and determine any less-than-optimal movement patterns. With the foundation restored from step 1, we can now optimize these movement patterns while returning you to your activities.
REVITALIZE
Breathe new life into your movement! During this phase we will work towards loading and strengthening your newly optimized movement patterns most specific to your activities. TOGETHER we will develop a long term injury prevention solution to keep you out of pain and moving joyfully.
