I received excellent care at Peak Potential. I had severe knee pain. Any sideways pressure caused such pain that it was extremely difficult to ride my bicycle or motorcycle. The work Trevor and his team did with me got me in good enough shape to ride my motorcycle from Memphis to the Arctic Circle and back. 10,686 miles. Thank you Peak Potential for taking such good care of me.

I’m extremely excited with my progress at this clinic. The staff is amazing and professional. I look forward to my appointments with Tyler. This is my 4th or 5th time doing physical therapy since I had my right leg amputated in August of last year. But this is my 1st time at this clinic and no one has ever actually touched my stump. But Tyler on my 1st visit touched massaged and made my life worth living again. Thank you so much for your sincere attention and care.

Top Sports Injury Occurrences & Treatment
Those counting on consistent high performance capacity quickly appreciate structured off-season regimens preventing the most prevalent athletic injuries through balanced strength, pliability and recovery.
- Ankle Sprains – Sudden sharp side-to-side cutting stresses vulnerable stabilizing ligaments. Optimal recovery includes gentle mobilization to realign joint surfaces while reestablishing balance through single-leg exercises progressing to uneven surfaces eyes closed tapping into neglected supporting reflexes off the field.
- Hamstring Strains – Repeated explosive sprint demands outpace muscular and connective tissue adaptive capacities leading to partial shearing at the bone attachment requiring therapy to carefully regenerate flexible shock absorption once scar tissue gets meticulously broken down through deep pressure treatment.
- Shoulder Dislocations – Dynamic reaching motions at speed collision contacts frequently generate massive disruptive forces overcoming the shoulder’s delicate stability. Neuromuscular control must be nurtured through incremental rotational and angle challenge retraining ensuring positioning and impact energy absorption capability sees gradual exposure preventing repeat insult.
- Knee Ligament Tears – Twisting pivots during rebounds hyperextend the knee past limits stressing ACL and supportive structures key for forward drive capacity. Advanced functional movement practice immerses clients in simulations to effectively automatically pre-activate muscular guarding using surrounding core and hip protection.

FAQs: Sports Injury & Rehab Questions
Which sport injuries tend to be most severe?
While subject to individual circumstance, collision-based contact sports like football and rugby repeatedly produce high acute injury rates with extensive rehabilitation needs given the sheer force absorbed in traumatic impacts from aggressive defensive opponents.
What does the sports injury rehab process actually involve?
Following accurate diagnosis, we map out progressive milestones for restoring mobility, strength and skills-specific conditioning needed to provide clearance for partial practice participation and eventual full competition return through modalities, manual therapy, simulated functional drills and movement pattern upgrades.
What phases make up formal sports injury rehabilitation?
There are 5 major phases spanning from acute injury management and tissue healing through gradual ramp-up to live game intensity including flexibility restoration, muscular power/stamina development and sport-specific skills rebuilding like agility, speed and balance.
Could you provide examples of formal sports rehabilitation training?
Standard techniques involve initial pain and swelling relief, gentle joint mobilizations, progressive rubber band and bodyweight exercises, sport motions simulation using resistance bands, single leg stability challenges on unstable surfaces, lateral agility drills with dual cognitive tasks and incremental sport activity-specific clearance drills.
