Our Sports Medicine Services
Sports Medicine
Our in-clinic sports medicine physician works with you to identify the root cause of your pain. From there, we’ll create a comprehensive treatment plan to help you make a full recovery, achieve your goals, and get back to the activities you love.
Chiropractic
Our chiropractic treatments and manual therapies include adjustments, joint manipulation, active release techniques (ART), acupuncture, shockwave therapy, and more.
Physiotherapy
With physiotherapy, we will use our expertise in the areas of biomechanics, movement assessment, exercise prescription, soft tissue techniques, and joint mobilization to effectively assess and treat a variety of conditions.
Massage Therapy
Our in-clinic Registered Massage Therapist will use their hands-on approach to work on your issues. In addition, they’ll remain coordinated with the LSM team and any other therapists who might be working with you to provide the most impactful and integrated care for you.
Injection Therapy
Managed by our Sports Medicine Doctor, Injections are used to help with any pain you are experiencing, specifically relieving pain and inflammation into areas such as ankles, elbows, hips, knees, shoulders, spine or wrists.
Active Release Therapy
ART provides a way to diagnose and treat the underlying causes of cumulative trauma disorders that result in symptoms of numbness, tingling, burning and aching. ART is a type of manual hands-on therapy that corrects muscular and soft tissue problems caused by adhesion formation as a result of injury, overuse or cumulative trauma.
Dry Needling & Medical Acupuncture
Medical acupuncture is an effective treatment approach aimed at reducing pain, improving function and increasing muscle activation. During this treatment, a thin, single use needle is carefully guided into the skin and specific tissues. The needle stimulates the release of the body’s own painkillers, such as endorphins.
Shockwave Therapy
Shockwave Therapy uses cutting edge acoustic wave technology which carries high energy to painful spots and tissues.
Custom Knee Bracing
Custom knee bracing can aid with improving function, decreasing pain and allowing return to play following an injury. People who suffer from knee osteoarthritis often achieve great results with custom unloader braces. Bracing can also speed up healing following an acute injury or surgery.
