Football
Football is a full-contact, high-collision sport that can often take a toll on the body. Specific individualized care is required based on the demands of each position. At FX Physical Therapy, a plan of care can be tailored for each football player that requires our attention. For the all-too-common traumatic knee and ankle injuries that can affect workhorse running backs, to low back pain and shoulder injuries that bug gritty linemen, to those nagging hamstring injuries that just won’t go away for speedy receivers and defensive backs, to any shoulder or elbow injury that may be impeding quarterbacks from throwing-the PTs at FX can develop a plan for you. FX Physical Therapy also has experts in concussion rehabilitation that are up to date on the newest research and most innovative treatments. With FX Physical Therapy, you no longer have to battle through pain, we can help you get back on the field and playing pain-free as quickly as possible.
