Too often, athletes resort to painkillers to treat their discomfort. Coaches partner with our healthcare providers to encourage athletes to treat time-honored healthcare options that treat and relieve pain, rather than masking the symptoms. We offer ultrasounds, flexion distraction, stretching, core-strengthening, deep muscle stimulators, nutrition counseling, supplement therapy, acupuncture, sports injury massage, and a variety of other treatments that work to improve and maintain the athlete’s whole-body health.

Rather than focusing exclusively on the injured area, we treat your health as a whole. Oftentimes, an injury may be a result of a weakness in another area of the body, so we treat the injury and help discover the other vulnerable areas. This helps prevent recurring injury.
