Tennis elbow, rotator cuff injury, heel injuries, lower back problems and frequent knee pain because of the many sports based on running—all of these injuries impact the careers of professional athletes and cause discomfort for “weekend warriors” as well.

Associates in Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation physicians treat all kinds of sports injuries and work with athletes in rehabilitating those injuries. We often design strength and conditioning programs to enhance performance and prevent injuries. Treatment of injuries may include physical therapy, exercise, braces or orthotics, and, sometimes, selective nerve injections.
