Specialized rehab for gymnasts, from wrists and backs to ankles, with growth-aware care and a progressive return to skills.
Recreational to elite, we speak gymnastics.
Gymnastics loads growing bodies like almost no other sport, and its culture teaches kids to hide pain. Wrists, spines, and heels quietly absorb thousands of impacts, and small problems become big ones when nobody's watching.
We watch. Our therapists understand skills, progressions, and growth plates, and we build plans that respect both the sport and the growing athlete, keeping them in the gym safely wherever possible.
How we care for gymnasts.
Focused treatment for the wrists, back, knees, and heels that take the sport's biggest loads.
Care that accounts for growth plates and development, in and out of growth spurts.
Returning to skills step by step, from basics to full difficulty, in gym-friendly language.
Targeted strength that supports flexibility with control, the foundation of safe gymnastics.
In Illinois you can start physical therapy without a doctor's referral, so there's nothing standing between you and relief. We accept most major plans and offer self-pay options. Not sure about your coverage? We'll check it for you before your first visit.
Here's exactly what your first visit looks like.
We start with your history, your symptoms, and the goals that matter to you.
We look at how your whole body moves to find what's driving your pain, not just where it hurts.
A hands-on treatment plan built around your body and your life, and a therapist who stays with you the whole way.
Every therapist on our team is trained in the entirety of the kinetic chain. That means we look at how your whole body moves, not just the part that hurts, and treat the cause instead of the symptom. You get that same care at all 10 of our clinics.
The same hands-on, whole-body approach guides every plan we build.
Every clinic is held to the same standard, set by therapists with advanced training in how the body moves.
You'll see the same faces at your home clinic, people who know your name and your goals.
"…Thank you also to Joe, Rachel, Annie, and Zaneta, for being nice to me, working with me patiently, watching my form, and being great cheerleaders in general. I cannot recommend Sports and Ortho enough. And I do, to all my friends."
"Prior to starting PT with Tina, I felt like my back would never get better. I injured my back as a gymnast in 2019, I had seen several doctors, chiropractors, and PTs, I had injections, acupuncture, e-stim, every treatment you could think of."
