Sports Injuries
Get back to peak performance with evidence-based sports injury rehabilitation and prevention.
Overview
Sports injuries range from acute traumas (sprains, strains, fractures) to chronic overuse conditions (tendinopathies, stress fractures, IT band syndrome). Proper diagnosis and a structured return-to-sport protocol are essential for safe, lasting recovery and injury prevention.
Common Causes
- Muscle or ligament tears
- Tendinopathy (overuse tendon injury)
- Stress fractures
- Joint sprains
- Improper training load or technique
- Inadequate warm-up or recovery
- Biomechanical imbalances
Symptoms
- Pain during or after activity
- Swelling and bruising
- Joint instability
- Reduced strength or flexibility
- Pain with specific movements
- Tenderness at injury site
Our Approach
Dr. Entezami uses a phased return-to-sport model. Acute injuries are managed with low-level laser and electrotherapy for pain and swelling. Shockwave therapy may support healing in chronic tendinopathies. Manual therapy and IASTM restore tissue quality. Sport-specific rehabilitation exercises and biomechanical coaching complete the program.
