Our Approach
The Elite OrthoSport Team specializes in orthopedic and sports physical therapy and delivers a level of care sought after by the best. Our approach is to address more than just your symptoms by getting to the root of the problem. We not only identify areas that are problematic now, but aim to identify areas of weakness, muscle imbalance and movement dysfunction that may predispose you to injury in the future.
