If you’re an athlete or enjoy playing sports, injuries are, unfortunately, a common occurrence. Fortunately, our Reddy- Care physical therapists can help you recover after an injury and avoid the need for surgery in many cases. Our team can help guide you through the preventive steps you can take to minimize your risk of sports injuries. If you sustain an injury, we’ll identify all the factors related to your injury and address them one by one. Through our specialized programs, we can help you recover and improve your physical capabilities. We’ll take a holistic approach that fortifies your overall health and improves the skills necessary to maximize your athletic performance. If you’re an athlete looking to recover after an injury, prevent surgery, and get an edge on the field, court, or weight room, we can help. Our therapist-led programs are designed to help athletes withstand the physical demands of sports more effectively, minimizing the incidence of an injury and the need for surgery. THE ROLE PHYSICAL THERAPY PLAYS IN PREVENTING SURGERY FOR SPORTS- RELATED INJURIES
Tailored Plans After an Injury If you are trying to avoid surgery and wonder if physical therapy can prevent or delay it, the simple answer is yes! Most orthopedic-type surgeries are not urgent or emergencies. Although traumatic situations can be emergencies, most times, there is a significant period of time between diagnosis and surgery. Far too often, people mistake their symptoms for signs to rest or avoid the activities causing them pain. Even more frequent is the number of people who ignore aches and pains, thinking they will go away on their own, only to discover those early warning signs were the body’s signals to get help. Unfortunately, rest, avoidance, and trying to ignore or push through pain only lead to a bigger, often more complex, problem. At Reddy-Care, our physical therapists will weed through your symptoms and identify the root cause of your particular situation. We will give you the tools to prevent, delay, or prepare yourself for surgery. We’ll guide you through a gradual progression to make sure you are ready to return without any limitations or impairments standing in your way. This cautious approach ensures a safer and more effective recovery process. Rather than a “one-size-fits-all approach,” we believe every patient is unique and deserves a program tailored to their specific situation and goals. You are not merely treated but are guided towards a pathway of enhanced performance and overall well-being!

OUR APPROACH TO ASSESSMENT AND TREATMENT
Rehabilitation should start immediately following most injuries to ensure the fastest recovery possible. One of our physical therapists with sports rehab experience will thoroughly evaluate the athlete to determine the injury’s severity and identify any other weaknesses or limitations that may affect the athlete’s recovery, stability, or strength. Next, your therapist will create a targeted, individualized plan of care for you to promote accelerated recovery and future injury prevention. Our goal is to minimize the risk of needing surgery, so you get back to training and competing in the sport you love. For example, your physical therapist will start with pain management and restoring mobility to the injured area. Next, we will focus on progressing your strength and dynamic stability exercises to restore function and prevent injuries. We will also incorporate balance and coordination exercises to stimulate the nervous system and help ensure you can run, jump, and cut to change direction, land in the correct position, and avoid future injuries. Physical therapy at Reddy-Care will provide the foundation for successful training while reducing future injuries and avoiding surgery! Considering Physical Therapy? Get Started Today! Navigating the road to recovery and returning to the sports activities you love can be tricky. Fortunately, our seasoned physical therapists are here to guide you every step of the way.

“I came to Reddy Care after my shoulder surgery for a torn labrum, rotator cuff, and bicep. From the onset, everyone at Reddy Care made me feel completely comfortable with their level of knowledge and care. From my first visit, Valentina made me feel as if I was her top priority and her only patient. And that feeling had not let up a single iota. When I went back to work and had to change my visits to evening hours, Anusha was a seamless transition and a fantastic addition to my care. Whether it’s Yildaliz at the front desk or Manny or the rest of the caregivers, everyone is such a pleasure to work with. Reddy Care has exceeded my expectations in ways I never thought possible. Their knowledge, attention to detail, and incredibly pleasant and easy demeanor has made my recovery an absolute joy. I wish everyone the same experience.” -P.B.
