Sports Physical Therapy & Performance Enhancement
Physical therapy at the core is designed to enhance movement. There is no better professional in the world at observing movement than a well trained physical therapist.
Empower Your Performance with Proactive Physical Therapy
Physical therapy isn't just for injuries. Athletes of all levels can benefit from proactive care to enhance their performance and prevent future issues. Here's how GOfit Physical Therapy can help you:
Move Better, Play Better: We'll analyze your movement patterns, identify limitations like tight hips or hamstrings, and work with you to improve flexibility, joint mobility, and motor control. This translates to smoother, more efficient movements in your sport.
Unlock Your Potential: Whether you're struggling with squat depth, deadlift form, or overhead lifts, we'll help you address imbalances and limitations. You'll move with greater confidence and efficiency, allowing you to reach your full potential.
Prevent Injuries Before They Start: Proactive physical therapy can identify weaknesses and imbalances that could lead to future injuries. We'll create a personalized program to address these issues, keeping you on the field or court.
Identifying Ways To Make You Move And Play Better:
Movement analysis
We can analyze the way you move, whether that be run, jump, squat, press, lift, etc. At GOfit physical therapy we have training that goes above and beyond our peers.
We are trained to assess motion symmetry, coordination, range or motion, and movement patterns. With the help of some simple videos of technique we can break down poor movement patterns and work to make them more functional.
Biomechanical assessment
Movement analysis will help us hone in and identify specific areas of your body with dysfunctional pattern.
Once those areas have been identified we can dive deeper with a biomechanical assessment of the joints in the area to determine if limited or excessive mobility is causing local break down or compensations through the kinetic chain.
If joint dysfunction is identified we can use manual therapy techniques to improve this joint motion and get you moving better again.
Myofascial assessment
Myofascial restrictions or myofascial trigger points may be limiting your mobility and strength. We can assess for this through some quick tests and reduce myofascial trigger points through manual therapy and dry needling.

Neuromuscular control
Biomechanics and myofascial tightness may not be the cause of movement asymmetry, it could be poor neuromuscular control.
We can test key muscles and functional movement patterns to determine if this is the cause of your movement problems. If it is, we have a number of ways to improve this through specific exercise and neuromuscular re-education.
Once you move better, you will play better!
