Common Conditions Treated at iKaiser Sports Physical Therapy

At iKaiser Sports Physical Therapy, we treat a wide variety of sports-related injuries and conditions. No matter what sport you play or your fitness level, we are equipped to help you overcome your injury and return to your activities. From common aches and pains to complex post-surgical rehabilitation, we have you covered. Let's delve into some of the most frequently treated conditions.

Sprains and Strains

These are among the most common injuries in sports. Sprains involve the stretching or tearing of ligaments (the tissues that connect bones), while strains involve the stretching or tearing of muscles or tendons (the tissues that connect muscles to bones). At iKaiser, we have extensive experience in treating these injuries, helping you reduce pain, restore range of motion, and regain strength. Our treatments often include manual therapy, therapeutic exercises, and modalities like ice and heat. We also provide guidance on proper bracing and activity modification to promote healing and prevent re-injury. We work to identify the root cause of your injury and address any underlying issues like muscle imbalances or poor biomechanics. We're not just about treating the symptoms. We're about getting you back to your best.

Tendonitis and Bursitis

These conditions involve inflammation of tendons (tendonitis) or bursae (bursitis), the small, fluid-filled sacs that cushion joints. Common areas affected include the shoulder, elbow, hip, and knee. Our physical therapists use a variety of techniques to reduce inflammation and pain, including manual therapy, therapeutic exercises, and modalities like ultrasound. We also address any contributing factors, such as overuse, improper form, or muscle imbalances. We can also provide education on proper posture and body mechanics to prevent future flare-ups. Our goal is to help you manage your symptoms and return to your activities without pain or limitations.

ACL, MCL, and Meniscus Injuries

These are more serious knee injuries that often require surgery. The ACL (anterior cruciate ligament), MCL (medial collateral ligament), and meniscus are all crucial for knee stability and function. After surgery, physical therapy is essential for restoring range of motion, strength, and function. iKaiser Sports Physical Therapy provides comprehensive post-surgical rehabilitation, including exercises to regain strength and stability, and gait training to restore normal walking patterns. We also focus on functional activities, like running, jumping, and cutting, to prepare you for a safe return to sports. Our therapists work closely with your surgeon to ensure a coordinated and effective recovery plan. We strive to give you the confidence to get back in the game.

Other Common Conditions

Besides the conditions mentioned above, we also treat a wide range of other sports-related injuries, including:

Shoulder injuries: Rotator cuff tears, dislocations, impingement syndrome.
Elbow injuries: Tennis elbow, golfer's elbow.
Hip and groin injuries: Hip flexor strains, labral tears.
Ankle and foot injuries: Ankle sprains, plantar fasciitis, Achilles tendinitis.
Overuse injuries: Stress fractures, shin splints.

If you're unsure if physical therapy is right for you, don't hesitate to reach out to us. We're always happy to answer your questions and help you determine the best course of action.
