Return to the Sport You Love with Physical Therapy

Discover How our PT Treatments can Help You Get Back in the Game

Any injury sustained during physical activity can be categorized as a sports injury – and at Austin Manual Therapy Associates, we’re here to get you off the sidelines and back in the game! Whether you’re a professional athlete or a weekend warrior, it is important to stay safe while performing your sport.

Don’t simply wait around for your injury to heal – get back to the sport you love quicker with the help of one of our dedicated Austin, TX physical therapists.

What sports injury do I have?

There are a number of different injuries that can occur while performing an athletic activity; however, the most common forms of sports injury include:

Shin splints

The medical term for shin splints is “medial tibial stress syndrome,” referring to pain that is felt in the shin bones. This pain is typically caused by stress placed on the shinbone and the connective tissues surrounding it. Shin splints are painful and often debilitating; however, they can be avoided by wearing proper footwear, warming up before exercise, and strengthening your core and leg muscles.

Knee injuries

Your knee is the most complex joint in your body and is, therefore, one of the most commonly injured body parts. Knee injuries may include dull aches that run from your hip to your knee, repetitive use injuries making it difficult to move the knee, or more severe injuries such as an ACL tear.

Strain or “pulled muscle”

A strain also referred to as a “pulled muscle,” occurs when a tendon connecting your muscle to bone is stretched beyond its limits. Once the tendon is overstretched, it is more likely that it will be strained once again.

Sprain

A sprain occurs when a ligament connecting one bone to another is stretched beyond its limits. Once a sprain occurs and a ligament is overstretched, it is more likely that it’ll occur again.

What caused my injury to develop?

The term “sports injury” is all-encompassing, including any type of injury that occurs while performing an athletic activity. It can happen just the same by lifting heavy weights at the gym or running in ill-fitted shoes, as it can by swinging a bat too aggressively or rolling your ankle on the soccer field.

One of the most important aspects of rehabilitating a sports injury is treating it as soon as possible. Your treatment plan and duration of recovery will vary depending on how severe the injury is, your health history, and whether or not the injury requires surgical intervention.

How will physical therapy help my sports injury?

Have you recently sustained a sports injury? If so, don’t hesitate to request an appointment at Austin Manual Therapy Associates. Our Austin, TX physical therapists are movement experts who can help you reach your physical goals.

They will prescribe an individualized treatment plan for you based on your specific needs, in order to help get you back in the game as quickly as possible. This will be done after first performing a diagnostic exam, and your physical therapist may also review diagnostic tests, such as X-rays, MRI, or ultrasound. Treatment plans will take into account the nature of your injury, your fitness level, and your lifestyle.

Your plan will likely include manual therapy to increase your range of motion and reduce scar tissue, stretches to improve balance and mobility, and strengthening exercises to enhance the injured area, as well as its surrounding areas. These are all done to help you recover after your sports injury and to prevent further injuries from occurring in the future.
