🎤 Honored and excited to be presenting at this month’s Twisted Thursday with our Athletico Vestibular & Concussion Clinical Program team!

Each month, our therapists come together to collaborate, learn, and share clinical insights — and this time, I’ll be joining two other amazing clinicians to present case studies.

I’ll be discussing a concussion case complicated by BPPV, a challenging but rewarding case that offered great learning opportunities for managing multi-system vestibular presentations.

Always grateful to be part of a team that values growth, collaboration, and evidence-based care! 💙🌀

🌟 Back pain shouldn’t keep you from flipping, tumbling, or stunting your best!  
 
🩷 I love helping athletes of all levels—cheerleaders and gymnasts alike—recover from common injuries like spondylolysis, and other sports-related conditions.

1️⃣ 𝘚𝘱𝘰𝘯𝘥𝘺𝘭𝘰𝘭𝘺𝘴𝘪𝘴 / 𝘚𝘵𝘳𝘦𝘴𝘴 𝘍𝘳𝘢𝘤𝘵𝘶𝘳𝘦𝘴 
Up to 47% of athletes with low back pain have this overuse injury from back bending skills. Early PT prevents season-ending setbacks. 
 
2️⃣ 𝘌𝘹𝘵𝘦𝘯𝘴𝘪𝘰𝘯-𝘚𝘦𝘯𝘴𝘪𝘵𝘪𝘷𝘦 𝘉𝘢𝘤𝘬 𝘗𝘢𝘪𝘯 
Bridges, walkovers, tumbling, and handsprings overload the spine. PT builds core + hip strength for safe return. 
 
3️⃣ 𝘔𝘶𝘴𝘤𝘭𝘦 𝘚𝘵𝘳𝘢𝘪𝘯𝘴 
A top cheer/gym injury—PT restores strength + flexibility to heal and prevent re-injury. 
 
4️⃣ 𝘚𝘐 𝘑𝘰𝘪𝘯𝘵 𝘋𝘺𝘴𝘧𝘶𝘯𝘤𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯 
Landing, twisting, or stunts can irritate the SI joint. PT targets stability, glutes, and landing mechanics. 
 
✨ Common, but NOT normal. Early PT = faster recovery + safer return to sport.

Helping patients find relief from vertigo, dizziness, and concussions is at the heart of what I do as a Doctor of Physical Therapy. Whether it’s restoring balance, improving confidence, or eliminating that constant “spinning” feeling—specialized vestibular rehab can change lives.   
   
If you or someone you know struggles with dizziness, I’m here to help you get steady again. 💫

💥 Elbow injuries are one of the most common hurdles in gymnastics & cheer — but they don’t have to stop your progress! 💪 Whether it’s hyperextension, overuse, or instability, understanding why your elbows hurt is the first step to getting back on the mat.

✨ Early intervention, smart training, and proper technique keep you in the gym and feeling strong!
