On the first visit my therapist went all out and we were able to target exactly what was the culprit of my pain. From then forward we added new stretches and exercises to strengthen my core and alleviate the pain. I will mention that doing the exercises and stretches at home are imperative to a successful therapy. My therapist was also kind enough to answer and help with other issues in my neck and hamstring. The best part of my physical therapy experience was the friendly staff, ASTYM, and stem sessions. Now after a month I have no pain and am able to bend in every direction, almost to my toes.” -KD Patient Success Story “Now after a month I have no pain and am able to bend in every direction, almost to my toes.”
TIPS FOR AVOIDING SPORTS INJURIES
5. Make sure they are eating a well-balanced diet. Even when following tips and guidelines to the letter, injuries can unfortunately still occur. Be sure to tell your young athlete that the old saying “no pain, no gain” doesn’t apply when it comes to actual injuries. Playing through pain can lead to further damage and a longer healing time, so it is important to address any nagging pains or acute injuries before they turn into something more serious. Your physical therapy team at Regional PT can help create a plan to treat and prevent injuries by promoting strength training and proper form.

Here is a collection of tips that can help keep your kids playing the game they love rather than watching from the sidelines: 1. Get a preseason physical.
2. Emphasize the importance of warm-ups. 3. Make sure they are getting enough rest. 4. Make sure they are hydrating!
