6 Reasons Why Athletes Come to One80 Physical Therapy®

Being an athlete isn’t easy. Participating in intensive in-season programs, off-season programs, regular practice, specialty practice all on top of their actual competition, takes a toll on the body. While these activities are crucial for athletes to perform, they can also lead to issues that limit the ability to compete.

The doctors at One80 Physical Therapy® are dedicated to the prevention and treatment of sports-related injuries like tendonitis, fractures, dislocations, sprains/strains, hypermobility, overtraining syndromes and pain in general. On top of injury-related issues, these specialists can also help athletes improve their performance levels.

Here are the top reasons athletes should be treated with the patent-pending One80 System®.

1. Customized Care:

The doctors at One80 give every patient an extensive functional evaluation to determine the root cause of their specific issue. During the course of treatment, patients are seen for one on one manual therapy treatments and progressed through customized reinforcement exercises.

2. Science-based thought process and treatment strategies:

Rather than relying on symptom modification gimmicks used by conventional PTs, chiropractors, massage therapist, etc., One80 attacks the cause of the symptoms. This unique thinking gets athletes quick and lasting results.

3. Performance maximization and injury prevention:

One80 Physical Therapy® provides athletes with maximized MoStreBility. This is the combination of motion, strength, and stability and is what increases performance levels while decreasing the risk of injury. Athletes are also given expert advice on how to prepare for practice and play to reduce the likelihood of re-injury.

4. Return to play

Our goal at One80 is to help you restore normal function and return to play as soon as possible. Because our System is able to restore normal nerve-muscle communication, our patients recover quickly, and rarely spend time on the sideline.

5. Non-Surgical Treatment:

When possible, the doctors at One80 try to avoid surgery in favor of non-invasive methods like manual therapy, neuromuscular re-education, exercise prescription and patient education. With this line of treatment, many athletes are able to either avoid surgery or put it off until after their season is over.

In the case that surgery is warranted, One80 Physical Therapy®  is able to refer athletes to the surgeon best suited for their condition.

6. Education

The best tool we can give a patient is the knowledge they need in order to understand why an injury occurred, what we did to solve the problem and what to do in order to prevent future issues. Because what we do at One80 Physical Therapy is the opposite of conventional thinking, patient education paramount.
