Common Sports Injuries Treated with Physical Therapy 

Physical therapy is effective in treating a wide range of sports injuries, including: 

  • Sprains and Strains: Common in ankles, wrists, and knees due to overstretching or tearing of ligaments and muscles. 
  • ACL and Meniscus Tears: Often requiring surgery, followed by an extensive rehabilitation process. 
  • Tendonitis: Inflammation of tendons, commonly seen in runners, swimmers, and tennis players. 
  • Fractures and Dislocations: Physical therapy helps regain strength and movement after the bones heal. 
  • Rotator Cuff Injuries: Shoulder injuries that require targeted exercises to restore strength and mobility.
