Keeping You In the Game & At Your Best!
Over the last several decades, the hyper-organization of sports participation at every age and level of skill has resulted in billions of dollars being spent on lessons and equipment.
Interestingly, sports and activity-related injuries comprise a large percentage of emergency department and urgent care visits, though the vast majority of these injuries are preventible. Additionally, following injury, the evidence is clear that recovery duration is shorter and recovery outcomes are better when care is coordinated by clinicians and other health and performance professionals who have specialized training in sports-related care.
Despite the incredible amount of money invested in sports participation, very little is invested (beyond acute injury/illness care and post-injury recovery & rehabilitation) in comprehensive and preventive care in such areas as: diet/nutrition, hydration, sleep dynamics, training/recovery intervals, sport-life 'balance' & other self-care practices. Additionally, those with pre-existing medical conditions such as hypertension, diabetes & asthma may benefit from closer engagement with a health and wellness team that is able to effectively integrate prevention, management & treatment strategies within the framework of their chronic medical condition(s).
