POST-OP REHAB, SURGERY TO SPORT.

Rehab after surgery is one continuous project: protect the repair, restore motion, rebuild strength, then prove readiness against objective return-to-sport criteria. Most athletes end up splitting that project across providers. A clinic for the early phase, then whatever they can piece together for the return. We run the whole arc under one roof, from your first post-op week to your first game back.

ATHLETES JOIN US AT EVERY STAGE.

  • Surgery is scheduled and you want one plan (and one provider) that runs from the op report to return to play.
  • You're a few weeks out and want your rehab built around your sport from the start, not adapted to it at the end.
  • You're mid-rehab and your visits are running out before the return-to-sport phase even starts.
  • You were discharged at "walking fine": but your season needs running, cutting, lifting, or throwing.

HOW WE FINISH THE JOB.

ONE PLAN, THE WHOLE ARC

There are excellent clinicians in insurance-based settings, but the model caps visits and reimburses to functional milestones, so care usually ends well before sport-level capacity is built. Our model has no visit cap and no reimbursement clock: the same DPT runs your early-phase work and your return-to-sport testing, whether you start with us at week one or join partway through.

OBJECTIVE RETURN CRITERIA

Strength symmetry, hop testing, jump mechanics, and agility get measured and re-measured across the program. Progression decisions come from those numbers, and you see them at every stage, so "am I ready?" has an actual answer.

PROGRESSIVE LOADING

Post-surgical tissue adapts to what you ask of it. We reintroduce load early, progress it carefully, and eventually train you heavy: because the graft, the repair, or the joint has to meet the forces of your sport before you do.

SPORT-SPECIFIC REINTEGRATION

The last third of the program looks like practice: running gait, deceleration, change of direction, throwing volume. By the time you return, game demands are something you've already done for weeks.


QUICK ANSWERS.

Can I start with you right after surgery?

Yes, that's the ideal scenario. We take athletes from the first post-op week: early-phase protection and range of motion per your surgeon's protocol, with strength and sport-specific work layered in as the tissue allows. Starting early means one continuous plan instead of a handoff mid-rehab.

What if I'm already months out from surgery?

Also fine, it is often not too late. We see athletes at 6, 8, even 12 months post-op whose progress has plateaued, and many still have room to improve with progressive loading and sport-specific work.

Can you work with my surgeon's protocol?

Yes. We read the op report, respect the timeline, and communicate with your surgeon if needed. The protocol provides guardrails. Once the tissue is ready, we build toward the demands that matter to your return.

Why go cash-pay when insurance would cover PT?

Cash-pay care gives us room to match the service to the recovery. General athletes can use a 6 Week Hybrid Plan with an evaluation, an individualized program, and the right block of PT visits. Baseball players with a serious injury and at least 12 weeks ahead can use the Rehab Advantage Plan for weekly PT, strength programming, return to throw, and daily Driveline facility access. We provide superbills for every eligible PT visit.
