ON THE FIELD

Athletic Therapists have extensive training in field emergency response, which includes CPR, splinting, airway maintenance and oxygen delivery, shock, and rapid injury assessment. None of us want to imagine a serious emergency happening during sport, but the truth is that emergencies do happen. Having an Athletic Therapist on your sideline gives you the peace of mind that in the rare event of a medical emergency, it will be handled professionally and with the best care possible.
Other benefits to having an Athletic Therapist working with your team include:
  • Comprehensive warm-up and cool-downs tailored to the demands of the sport, and to individual athletes as needed.
  • Injury Prevention education to coaches and athletes which includes training intensity, exercise recommendations, recovery strategies.
  • Immediate assessment and management of acute injuries.

In addition, our Athletic Therapist Lex is also a Registered Massage Therapist – she can also offer manual therapy such as sports, deep tissue, Swedish & pregnancy massages.
