Sports Therapy

Specialised sports physical therapy for acute, chronic, and repetitive injuries — from prevention to performance enhancement.

About this service

Sports therapy is a specialised area of physical therapy dealing with both acute, chronic, and repetitive injuries in professional, collegiate, high school, and recreational athletes. At Prana, our sports therapists provide thorough evaluation and treatment for sports-related injuries using manual therapy, therapeutic exercise (from basic to advanced resistance protocols), heat, ice, taping, and electrical stimulation, functional retraining specific to individual sports' movement patterns, and dynamic strength and endurance conditioning. We also offer post-surgical rehabilitation to restore strength and range of motion, sport-specific mechanics retraining (pitching, cutting, jumping, shooting), injury prevention programmes including pre-participation evaluations, and performance enhancement training tailored to specific sporting demands.
