Sports Physical Therapy
At The Therapy Network, our physical therapists help athletes, weekend warriors, and active individuals recover from injuries and return safely to the activities they love. Sports physical therapy is a specialized form of rehabilitation focused on healing sports-related injuries, restoring mobility, and preventing re-injury, getting you back to your sport stronger and safer.
What Sports Physical Therapy Can Do for You
Our therapists provide personalized care to:
- Rehabilitate injuries to the muscles, joints, and connective tissues commonly affected by sports.
- Restore safe movement patterns so you can return to your sport without setbacks.
- Prevent future injuries through targeted exercises and movement guidance.
Sports physical therapy isn’t just for professional athletes—anyone with a sports-related injury or an active lifestyle can benefit. Even minor injuries can become more serious if left untreated, so early care is important for a safe return to activity.
Common Sports Injuries We Treat
Some of the injuries we see most often include:
- Sprains and strains (ankle, knee, shoulder, wrist)
- Overuse injuries (runner’s knee, tendonitis, shin splints)
- Post-surgical rehabilitation
- Joint pain and inflammation from repetitive activity
Sports Physical Therapy for Runners
Coastal Virginia offers great conditions for running, from trails to local races, but running injuries are common. In fact, many recreational runners experience an injury each year. Our sports rehab program for runners focuses on:
- Healing injuries and restoring proper mechanics
- Preventing recurring problems
- Planning safe workouts to maintain fitness during recovery
