Athletix Rehab and Recovery Davie

Yes, our Davie clinicians help to relieve knee pain and restore function. Knee pain typically occurs across our active patients who participate in high impact sports that require repetitive jumping and running (basketball, volleyball, tennis, track and field, etc.) It can also be a key indicator of imbalances in the body that can be identified with a physical therapy evaluation. We use a combination of manual therapy and corrective exercise to restore normal mechanics and progressively load to strengthen and improve overall function of the knee.

Yes, our Davie Physical Therapists can help alleviate symptoms of low back pain and restore function. Mobility, flexibility, strength, and stability are important in both the low back and hips, they have to work both together and independently from one another to achieve proper body mechanics with static and dynamic activity! Hip pain can be associated with repetitive squatting, running, or jumping with insufficient glute or quadricep strength and motor control. Treatment goals are to alleviate tight tissues pulling on the spine and pelvis, as well as restoration of normal body mechanics with corrective exercise. Progressively overloading these movements will help strengthen the hips and spine to return to activities of daily living without pain.

Yes, physical therapy has proven successful in relieving long-term symptoms in patients experiencing both acute and chronic neck pain. Manual, or “hands-on” treatments consist of special techniques designed to reduce the stiffness in the neck and improve range of motion. Targeted exercises focus on the root of the pain, to strengthen, build, and improve the muscles and tissues in the neck. Treatments will focus on improving posture to aid in the recovery of the neck muscles, as well as avoiding re-injury in the future. Additional treatment services may also be included as your physical therapist deems fit, based on the nature of your condition.
