Where to receive sports therapy in Swansboro, NC

Participating in sports is one of the best ways we can enjoy being alive. This allows us to put our bodies to the test and see how far we can push ourselves in competition or to reach personal goals. However, participating in sports is also risky because it makes you more prone to injury.

Fortunately, the physical therapists at Peak Performance Sports and Physical Therapy in Swansboro, North Carolina can help if you’re an athlete who’s been injured. Our treatments are designed to help reduce your need for surgery and improve your strength and flexibility.

How does sports therapy help athletes with injuries?

Each type of sport comes with its own risks and common injury types. The physical therapists at Peak Performance Physical Therapy are skilled and experienced in working with all kinds of these injuries.

Here are a few major sports and their common types of injuries that we treat:

• Football — Football is first on the list because it is a contact sport. The tackles, blocks and hits can lead to all kinds of injuries, including sprains, fractures and ACL tears.
• Basketball — Basketball players run and jump a lot in training and during games. These activities can often result in injuries like sprains and pulled muscles.
• Baseball — Baseball players suffer from pulled muscles frequently because they sprint so fast from one base to another. Pitchers don’t spend much time sprinting, but they’re at risk for injury too. Throwing a ball at such high speeds can result in tendonitis.
• Tennis — Tennis players are prone to tendonitis due to swinging a racket so much. Plus, they have been known to suffer from sprains after cutting back and forth along the court.
• Golf — Like tennis players, golfers can suffer from tendonitis after swinging a club all day.
