How can you help me improve my sports performance?


In addition to treating injuries, your provider at Manhattan Physical Therapy helps you prevent future issues and promote your day-to-day wellness. To promote sports performance, your provider may combine several tools:

3D movement scan


Your provider may start your assessment by utilizing the 3D movement scan. This innovative technology identifies areas of weakness or imbalance so your provider can tailor a strengthening regimen to your needs.
This helps you address pain at its source and avoid worse injuries down the road.

Acupuncture


This treatment aims to clear your body of areas of tightness so you can begin effective healing. The team takes an orthopedic approach to acupuncture, looking for these trigger points so they can release tension where your body needs it the most.

Suspension therapy


Redcord® suspension therapy is suitable for patients with a variety of conditions all over your body. Among other things, it can address:

  • Neck pain

  • Back pain

  • Tendonitis

  • Shin splints

  • Ankle sprains

  • Rotator cuff injuries

  • Herniated and slipped discs

This treatment offers fast and effective pain relief, often after only one visit. Patients can return for a free follow-up visit if they didn’t quite achieve their desired results after one session. This medication-free and noninvasive treatment is suitable for most patients.
