GOALS OF SPORTS RECONDITIONING

  • Restore overall strength, mobility, and flexibility

  • Improve muscular endurance and cardiovascular fitness

  • Rebuild functional movement patterns for daily activities or sport

  • Return to prior level of function safely and efficiently

  • Reduce risk of re-injury through proper mechanics and conditioning

  • Correct compensations or weaknesses that developed during inactivity

  • Enhance balance, coordination, and stability

  • Promote long-term physical resilience and performance

WHAT  TO EXPECT IN YOUR SESSIONS

Your reconditioning sessions are fully individualized, based on your current functional status, goals, and any previous injuries or surgeries. Every patient begins with an initial evaluation, where your Doctor of Physical Therapy assesses strength, mobility, balance, and movement patterns. This evaluation also serves as the start of your treatment plan, so you begin progressing safely from day one.


Typical sessions may include:
✔  Guided mobility and flexibility work to restore proper range of motion

✔  Strength training tailored to your current ability and goals

✔  Neuromuscular re-education and movement retraining to correct compensations

✔  Hands-on manual therapy as needed for joint or soft tissue restrictions

✔  Functional conditioning exercises to rebuild endurance and movement efficiency

✔  Home program updates to support faster progress

✔  Ongoing milestone-based testing to track strength, mobility, and function

✔  Education on safe activity progression and injury prevention

Every session is 1:1, ensuring focused attention, proper progressions, and modifications based on your performance and recovery.
