ACL tears are devastating injuries and rehab is complex. There’s a reason re-tear rate is so high.

The steps you take BEFORE and AFTER ACL surgery (IF you get surgery) will make the difference between a successful recovery and frustrating re-injury.

This is why most people don’t get back to 100% after an ACL tear:

They’re told their extension is “good enough”
They’re seen by non-ACL specialized providers
They’re given low level exercises and stretches
They aren’t given robust objective testing
They’re told their quad is “strong enough”
They’re told to return to sport way too early

They deserve better.

No matter what stage you’re in:

Considering surgery
Early post op
Returning to sport
Struggling years after surgery

Our ACL rehab specialists will help you return to doing the things you love safely & confidently after an ACL tear.

Meet Clementine! Clementine is a driven youth athlete who’s passionate about soccer, track, and pushing her limits.

When she came to us, she was feeling frustrated and worried—she thought her knee pain was something she’d have to live with forever.

She was struggling with frequent patellar dislocations and couldn’t even do stairs without pain.

Clementine had already tried modifying her activity AND traditional physical therapy and activity modification, but the pain just wouldn’t go away.

Fast forward a few months later, and Clementine is...

✅ Running pain-free
✅ Practicing high jump again
✅ Just returned from hiking Kilimanjaro
✅ Stronger and more confident than ever

Next up for Clementine? Track season! 🏃‍♀️✨

Clementine, your dedication and persistence through rehab and your commitment to your goals are truly inspiring. We’re so proud of how far you’ve come, and we can’t wait to see you continue crushing it!

Claire is an ACL REHAB ROCKSTAR ⭐️

She came to us about 6 months after her ACL surgery

She was still missing range of motion and having pain with certain movements and felt like her current clinic just wasn’t getting her where she wanted to be.

We got right to work on her strength, range of motion and desensitizing those painful movements before getting her back to pain free running, skiing and pickle ball!

She trusted the process, she got to work and she’s reaping the rewards.

We are so proud!

I love helping female athletes build strength in the gym to help reduce their risk of injury and improve performance on the field. ⚽️🏀🏐🥎
Women deserve to be taught how to lift weights in a safe and supportive environment. For most of us, competitive sport ends at some point but strength training can be a lifelong activity that promotes health and confidence forever.

Let’s talk re-tear rates 😓 About 20-25% of patients who have ACL reconstruction suffer from a re-tear

They’re a ton of contributing factors, and quality rehab plays a HUGE role in re-tear rates.

‼️Risks for a re-tear:

Lack of full ROM
Decreased strength
Failure to complete/pass robust return to sport testing
Returning to sports too early

✅ ALL of these can be improved with high quality rehab

🚩 Sometimes athletes go through ACL rehab and then experience a tear on the NON surgical side… which speaks volumes about what was missing in their rehab.

We created our ACL Performance Lab to solve this problem and to elevate the standard of ACL care.

You CAN get back to the sports and activities you love confidently and safely, with a lower risk of injury!

ACL Rehab should make you BETTER.

Better than before you got injured. 

Better than baseline.

👀 Definitely better than “your previous level of function” or “good enough” or “strong enough relative to your other leg” 

If at baseline, you were at risk for an ACL injury… 

💡Then returning you to baseline is returning you to an at-risk state. 

ACL Rehab should be about MORE than getting you back to baseline. 

✅ You should become stronger, more durable, more resilient, and more capable.

Your goals matter to us 💥

👉🏻 No matter what they are - wanting to run or workout again, playing pick up soccer, getting back to an organized sport, playing with your kids, skiing, you name it.

👏🏼 You want the best for your long term health. So do we.

Like you, we are frustrated with the system.

😞 It is frustrating to have this devastating injury that changes your whole life, only to be pushed to rehab that is insufficient and doesn’t give you what you need.

🔥 You’re motivated and dedicated and you want a rehab provider you can feel confident in.

The sad truth when it comes to ACL tears:⁠
⁠
😞 Most ACLers are failed by the healthcare system ⁠
⁠
Some are rushed into surgery when it’s actually not the best option for them ⁠
⁠
❌ They’re given subpar rehab, they’re not seen 1-on-1, they aren’t loaded enough, they don’t focus on what matters⁠
⁠
They have complications, severe detraining of both legs, not to mention the mental and physical effects of not being able to exercise or play the sport they love ⁠
⁠
😩 Told they’re “cleared” WAY too early, way underprepared⁠
⁠
They return to sport without proper guidance, progression, or preparation ⁠
⁠
🙈 This is a recipe for disaster. ⁠
⁠
This population is traditionally SO underserved, we had to do something about it. ⁠
⁠
💡Instead, you deserve ACL rehab that you can feel confident in. ⁠
⁠
Your ACL Specialist should guide you, step by step, to feel and perform like an athlete again.⁠
⁠
✅ But we don’t stop there - we help athletes become stronger, more confident, and more resilient than before. ⁠
⁠
This can be your comeback story.⁠

A message to all of our ACLers: ⁠
⁠
It is OKAY to feel frustrated.⁠
⁠
It's hard to be injured and to be kept from doing what you love.⁠
⁠
😫 It sucks to feel like your identity was stripped away in a flash.⁠
⁠
This journey takes dedication and hard work.⁠
⁠
Progress takes time.⁠
⁠
💡Focus on the STEP you're taking, not on getting to the top of the staircase.⁠
⁠
✅ We work with all of our athletes to guide them through this rocky journey - from individualized homework, 1-on-1 care, support, feedback, and guidance - we're on your side.⁠
⁠
You got this 👊🏼
