Most commonly, people think about physical therapy after an injury. This reactionary thought process has a lot to do with the structure of our healthcare system - insurance only covers physical therapy services when there is a problem.

While injury is sometimes inevitable, there are so many conditions we can take proactive steps towards reducing the risk of developing. Whether you are a young athlete trying to reduce your risk of ACL injury or an active adult working to maintain mobility and strength for that next run, consider the long-term benefits of maintaining movement health to prevent injury.

So, instead of reacting to injuries after they occur and cause missed time from sport and activity, try proactively managing movement health by working with a movement expert to reduce the risk of developing injury.

Running injuries may be preventable with load management. 50% of ACL tears are preventable with injury prevention programs. We just need to set the habit.
