Athletic Training

Athletic training through physical therapy treatments can help you reach your peak performance, whether you’re recovering from an injury or trying to strengthen your skills. A physical therapist is dedicated to helping you reach your goals – and developing new ones!

With athletic training programs, your peak performance is something that you and your physical therapist will define, and something that can be grown upon throughout the course of your sessions.

Your physical therapist will be right there with you, every step of the way, until you are able to reach your end goal. If you are interested in reaching your peak performance and learning more about athletic training, call our office at Breckenridge Physical Therapy today!

How can physical therapy help me achieve my athletic goals?

People most commonly turn to physical therapy after sustaining an injury. You’re in pain, looking for relief and recovery, and trying to find the motivation to push yourself to get there.

Physical therapists are trained to help you bounce back from your injury, with just as much strength (if not more!) than you had before the injury. They are dedicated to always helping you reach your peak, whatever that may be.

Athletic training, defined

Athletes, by nature, generally desire to push themselves to accomplish new goals. Sometimes an athlete may master one sport, only to take on the challenge of mastering a new one. Olympic sprinters take on the slopes at the winter games, and college athletes win national titles in multiple sports for this exact reason.

With athletic training, your goals never have to be definite. A physical therapist can help you reach the peak of your performance in one sport and then help you tackle the summit of another.

How can athletic training benefit me?

  • Overcoming injuries. Physical therapy treatments are some of the best ways to overcome an injury and find relief for your pain. Each treatment is designed specifically to the needs of each individual and the condition of their injury, consisting of exercises and strength-building activities that are unique to their recovery.
  • Refocusing strengths. A physical therapist can help you focus on improving your strength in areas that you may not have considered. Many parts of the body influence each other, and strengthening one can help with the function of another. Rather than jumping directly into a new form of activity, it makes sense to train your body to react to the new form of stimulation by improving your muscular strength and range of motion.
  • Developing healthy habits. While a physical therapist can help you reach physical goals, they can also help you work on general wellness goals, as well. For example, regular exercise, a healthy diet, and a strong focus on hydration are fundamental in improving your physical fitness level. A physical therapist is a great resource to have when focusing on increasing strength and muscular functionality, as they can help you improve in all aspects of health and wellness.
