Sports Medicine Q & A

What is sports medicine?

A specialized branch of medicine, sports medicine involves combining preventive solutions, injury treatment, and rehabilitation to help athletes get back in the game as quickly as possible. Sports medicine treatment plans are designed to help you:

Build strength and flexibility
Recover from sports-related pain
Heal after injury or overuse
Prevent re-injury

Just as no two athletes are alike, no two sports medicine treatment plans are the same. Your sports medicine team works together to provide integrative care tailored to your needs and of course, your unique sport.

When should I see a sports medicine specialist?

Jersey Integrative Health and Wellness is home to a team of sports medicine specialists, including physical therapists and physicians, who collaborate together to help you heal. The team encourages you to book a sports medicine evaluation as soon as possible if you:

Notice bruising, swelling, or redness
Find it difficult to bear weight on a limb
Experience limited range of motion
Feel pain during or after exercise

You should also come into Jersey Integrative Health and Wellness for a sports medicine evaluation if your symptoms are worsening or not improving within a few days. With on-site diagnostic solutions and imaging available, your practitioner can get to the root of your condition quickly and help you get started on treatment.

Which treatments does a sports medicine doctor provide?

Jersey Integrative Health and Wellness provides the most up-to-date sports medicine treatments for athletes of all levels, from weekend warriors to collegiate and professional athletes.

Osteopathic manipulation therapy (OMT)
