Rexburg Sports Medicine

Sports physical therapy at Pick PT in Rexburg emphasizes the prevention, identification, assessment, minimization, and correction of pain and disability associated with athletic injuries. It is our goal at Pick PT to assist athletes to EXCEL in their respective sports. We do this by decreasing the amount of time it takes to recover and decreasing the risk of future injuries. We want to help athletes to perform well and pain-free while participating in the sports they are passionate about.  

Anyone, athlete or otherwise, who has ever had an injury knows the pain that can remain even years later. If an injury isn’t properly rehabilitated soon after the injury it can increase the chances of lingering pain and limited range of motion well after the injury. Both of these things can decrease the quality of life, especially for those that have a love for sports. For athletes, chronic pain and suboptimal movement will absolutely decrease performance for future activities they hope to participate in. With the help of a sports physical therapist, athletes can rest assured that their injuries are thoroughly repaired and can continue to perform their best while doing what they love.

Why Sports Physical Therapy?

Our physical therapists are trained in techniques to get you back to playing at the same competitive and high level that you were at before the injury. They will take you through a progression of interventions including sport-specific agility exercises to determine your ability to return to sport safely after an injury. With our pre-sport screenings, we will be able to determine areas of musculoskeletal impairment. With what we learn in your pre-sport screening we are able to establish programs to safely assist you in preparing for the kick-off of the season! Components of Sports Physical Therapy include, but are not limited to:

• pre-participation screening
• cardiovascular, resistance, endurance, and neuromuscular re-education exercise programs
• taping and bracing 
• sports-specific ergonomic and performance training regimens
• manual physical therapy
• orthopedic physical therapy

If you have any questions about these services, please contact our office.

When to Contact a Sports Physical Therapist

Just like with any injury, the sooner you get proper treatment the better. This decreases the risks of lingering problems on the road.  Pick PT offers screenings before a sports season even begins to see if there are any concerning weaknesses. This is highly recommended for the prevention of injury. If you do acquire an injury, do not wait to have it evaluated by a professional. Having the proper treatment and equipment implemented early on can make the physical therapy process more efficient and viable. If you have chronic pain while participating in your favorite activities, don’t hesitate to contact our office for an examination. Pick PT is passionate about you living a pain-free and elevated life on and off the field.
