When should you see an Athletic Therapist?
STAY IN THE GAME – TIMELY TREATMENT
Long waiting times for health care may cause challenges when timely treatment is crucial to recovery. Athletic Therapists offer prevention and care when it’s needed. Often this occurs at the time of injury or immediately afterward; encouraging the healing process right away so the body can take advantage of curative lead time.
The longer an injury takes to heal the longer a person is out of commission. This equates to millions of dollars in lost employer revenue and a serious inflation of insurance costs.
