Advancing care through hands-on learning 💙

At the Lake Tahoe Sports Medicine Primary Care Symposium, the Barton PT team helped lead hands-on lab sessions, with stations focused on hip, shoulder, knee, foot, and concussion care.

A great opportunity to collaborate, share expertise, and help educate fellow providers in our community.

Mountain biking is an exciting sport with a variety of physical and psychological demands. On Tahoe’s world class trails, riders maneuver their bikes at fast speeds, corner within inches of obstacles like trees and boulders, drop off elevated pitches, and rumble through rock gardens. It’s a sport that requires technical skills, quick decision making, cardio fitness, power, total body strength, and confidence.
