Sports Rehabilitation

At Alpine Physical Therapy, we are committed to maximizing the performance of athletes of all ages and skill levels. Alpine PT employs therapists who are Certified Sports and Conditioning Specialists, advanced degree Exercise Physiologists, and others who have spent their careers seeking advanced training to assist in providing high level sports rehabilitation.

Starting with your first visit, we conduct a thorough assessment that includes your individual anatomical structure, physical movement patterns (biomechanics), precise joint mobility, and soft tissue status.

Treatment

For treatment, your physical therapist will combine advanced manual therapy, specialized treatments such as functional dry needling and IASTM, and movement retraining, that may include Pilates-based training and advanced technology such as force plate and video biofeedback training into a complete treatment package. Manual guidance and specialized soft tissue treatments are utilized to help build specific joint and muscle balance thereby optimizing your movement and minimizing tissue stress that could result in injury. We will continuously analyze your movement and provide you with the appropriate exercises to address strength, flexibility, and biomechanical training to speed your recovery and return to sport.

Along with our broad work in the area of sports rehabilitation, we also provide specialized expertise in the following areas
  • Court sports
  • Cycling
  • Mountain sports
  • Running
  • Team sports
Rehabilitative Model
We incorporate a four-step rehabilitative model for returning to sport:
  • Symptom management
  • Develop baseline strength and stability, restore joint mobility and range of motion
  • Functional strength and stability to prepare for return to sport training
  • Return to sport training
This step involves sport specific training and often incorporates force plate and video analysis. In this way, your training will dovetail with the demands of your activity or sport. This includes running, cutting, jumping, throwing, hitting, kicking, and pretty much anything we can recreate to make sure that you can transfer your improved strength, stability, and overall movement precision into your sport. After you have completed this phase, we aim to work closely with your coaches and trainers to aid you in your transition. Or we can build an individualized training program that you can incorporate into your workouts to fully enable you to reintegrate to your sport safely and at peak capability.

Our goal is to obtain a complete understanding of the demands of your activity or sport, including seasonal variations of your training demands, sport nutrition, and individual goals. We make it a priority to address not only the site of injury but the entire kinetic chain involved as our passion is to understand and optimize human movement related to your sport. Knowing this, we are able to help you return to your desired performance level effectively and efficiently. You can ask any of our patient care coordinators to place you with one of our talented physical therapists who specialize in orthopedic sports rehabilitation and start your path to enhancing your sport performance today.

We are proud sponsors of the Missoula Marathon, Peak and Griz Triathlons, the Missoula Strikers Soccer Club, Missoula Indoor Soccer Association, Missoula Freestyle Ski Team, Five Valleys CrossFit, and many local adult league recreational teams. Alpine Physical Therapy is dedicated to serving the sporting community of Missoula at all levels.
