🏅 Sports Rehab: Get Back in the Game Stronger Than Before

Athletes don’t just need recovery — they need smart recovery. Whether you’re dealing with a sprain, strain, overuse injury, or post-surgical rehab, sports-focused physical therapy helps you return to play safely, efficiently, and at your peak.

💥 In sports rehab we focus on:
• Restoring strength, power, and mobility
• Correcting movement patterns to prevent re-injury
• Sport-specific drills that mimic real game demands
• Improving agility, endurance, and reaction time

You bring the dedication.
We bring the science.
Together, we get you back to doing what you love.

⚡️ Acute vs. Chronic Pain: What’s the Difference?

Not all pain is the same — and understanding the difference helps you know how physical therapy can help! 👇

Acute Pain
🕒 Short-term pain that comes on suddenly — like after an injury, surgery, or strain.
💡 It’s your body’s way of saying “something needs attention.”
➡️ PT helps by reducing inflammation, restoring movement, and preventing future injury.

Chronic Pain
⏳ Lasts for months or even years, often after the original injury has healed.
💭 The nervous system becomes more sensitive, and pain signals may keep firing.
➡️ PT focuses on retraining movement, improving strength, and calming the overactive pain response.

No matter what type of pain you’re experiencing, movement and education are key to taking back control and feeling better. 💪

🚭 Did you know that smoking or using to***co can slow your recovery during physical therapy?

To***co affects your body in ways that can make healing harder:
✅ Reduces blood flow, which slows tissue repair
✅ Weakens bones and muscles
✅ Increases inflammation and risk of injury
✅ Can make pain management more difficult

Whether you’re recovering from surgery, an injury, or chronic pain, avoiding to***co can help your body heal faster and get stronger.

At PPT, we support your recovery every step of the way — and that includes helping you understand how lifestyle choices impact your healing. 💪✨

💤 Sleep: The Secret Ingredient to Faster Recovery

Did you know that sleep is one of the most powerful recovery tools when you’re going through physical therapy?

During deep sleep, your body repairs tissues, builds muscle, and releases growth hormones — all essential for healing and reducing inflammation. Without enough rest, your body has to work harder to recover, and progress can slow down.

So if you’re working hard in PT, make sure you’re also prioritizing rest! 🛏️
✅ Aim for 7–9 hours of quality sleep
✅ Keep a consistent sleep schedule
✅ Avoid screens before bed

Better sleep = better healing = better results. 🌙✨

💡 Pelvic Floor PT: Not Just for Moms!

Pelvic floor therapy isn’t just for postpartum recovery — it’s for anyone with a pelvic floor (that’s everybody!). 👏

Men, athletes, people with chronic pain, and those navigating perimenopause or menopause can all benefit from pelvic floor physical therapy.

If you’re experiencing leakage, pressure, or pelvic pain — you don’t have to live with it. PT can help you move and feel your best. 💪
