Change Sports Physical Therapy

We are looking for 20 people to pilot our brand new DIY Knee Rehab Self-Help Health Course! If you or someone you know has knee pain and wants to learn how to get rid of it themselves, then this is the course for you! I've created a phase by phase progression in getting out of pain and back to doing what you love. We are offering this for FREE to the first 20 people who want to pilot the program for us. In exchange all we ask is some feedback on the course. ... This is a great resource for someone who is active and knows about exercising, but has some knee pain keeping them back. Check out the link in the post. ***IF you want to sign up for the FREE pilot program, then click on the link in the comments More info on the courses: https://sportschange.com/self-help-health/

So.... unfortunately there is a very large difference between what is done in some physical therapy clinics vs others. Some people say, I tried PT. It didn’t help. However, when we ask a few more questions we find out what they mean is I was given a sheet of exercises and told to go do them, then they did that heat pack and electrical stimulation TENS thing. I’m our approach there are 5 Main components to GOOD physical therapy. 1) Evaluation: finding not only the symp...toms but the movement issues which cause the symptoms 2) Patient Education: Empower you to take care of your body 3) Corrective Exercise Prescription: A continually changing set of exercises as you progress through your healing phases 4) Manual Therapy: An array of different manual techniques and lastly 5) Modalities: heat, ice, ultrasound, electrical stimulation, etc... If you aren’t getting all these, you aren’t getting PHYSICAL THERAPY #physicaltherapy #physiotherapy #physicaltherapist #physio #fitness #rehab #health #physiotherapist #pt #rehabilitation #fisioterapia #exercise #wellness #dpt #occupationaltherapy #backpain #mobility #sportsmedicine #chiropractic #pain #chiropractor #workout #therapy #injuryprevention #injury #recovery #yoga #choosept #dptstudent #bhfyp See more

Had a great time this week with @fcpremier97hb! Taking these amazing girls through FMS testing, speed and agility, endurance and power testing. All part of the VIEW ANALYSIS to give coaches and players an inside view of their athletic heath and fitness. These screens are amazing at pulling out information which players and coaches can use to prevent injury and thrive in their sport. It’s a pleasure to work with this club- they invest in the well being of their athletes.

Sometimes what your tissue really needs is a good scrape! . Ok, it’s not as bad as it seems. At least the way we do it here. (Some patients might have another story - haha). This photo shows my first tool I purchased. The technique is called Instrument Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilization (IASTM). We break down the small adhesions between the tissue layers which could be causing some problems. Works great in combination with other things for tendinitis issues. This morning... I used it on a patient with our deadly combo: ultrasound, IASTM, percussion gun with movement, and some nerve glides. Works great when we pair that with some postural exercise. Have a diagnosis of tennis elbow or patellar tendinitis? This might be the solution for you! #iastm #huntingtonbeachphysicaltherapy #hb #orangecounty #surfcity #oc #physicaltherapy #physiotherapy #physio #rehab #mobility #anatomy #pt #athlete #tendonitis #Healthyathlete #injuryfree See more
