HOW TO KNOW IF YOU ARE READY?

Whether you've been recovering from an ACL injury or another sports injury, you've likely spent weeks, sometimes months, working through rehabilitation. You're eager to get back to your sport — but how do you know when you're actually ready?

​

Returning to sport requires more than restoring your range of motion and isolated strength. It's about how your entire body moves, produces and absorbs force, and responds to the demands of sport — changes in direction, acceleration, deceleration, changes in speed and reacting to your environment and other players. Being able to perform an exercise in the clinic doesn't necessarily mean you're ready to perform on the field, court or ice.

​

Using strength testing technology, video analysis and sport-specific movement assessments, I look at the physical qualities and movement demands required for your return to sport. From there, I develop an individualized strength and conditioning program that progresses beyond traditional rehabilitation to include jumping, landing, agility, acceleration, deceleration and change-of-direction drills. The goal is to identify remaining limitations, build your capacity and help you make a more informed decision about your readiness to return. You shouldn't have to guess.

​

If you're in the later stages of ACL rehabilitation, a clinic with a set of 10 lb dumbbells and limited space may not be equipped to meet your sporting needs. I intentionally chose facilities with the space, equipment and training environment needed to deliver a comprehensive return-to-sport program.

Let's bridge the gap between finishing rehab and getting back to doing what you love.
