Tennis & Racquet Sports Physical Therapy
Tennis, racquetball, pickleball, and squash combine explosive power, rapid direction changes, and repetitive overhead movements. These demands place unique stress on shoulders, elbows, knees, and the back, creating injury patterns that require specialized understanding. At Ares Physical Therapy in Elm Grove, we provide expert treatment for racquet sport athletes who want to stay active, competitive, and pain-free on the court.
Common Racquet Sport Injuries We Treat:
Why Racquet Sport Athletes Need Specialized Care:
The explosive movements, overhead serves, and repetitive strokes of racquet sports create specific biomechanical demands. A shoulder injury in tennis isn’t the same as a shoulder injury from swimming. The rotational forces, deceleration patterns, and court surface impacts all require expert assessment. At Ares Physical Therapy, we understand these nuances and tailor treatment to the specific demands of your sport.
Our Racquet Sport Approach:
We treat players who value their time on the court and want efficient, effective rehabilitation. Our approach addresses not just the injured tissue, but the movement dysfunction, strength imbalance, or technical flaw that led to injury. We work to restore pain-free play while optimizing performance and preventing recurrence.
What Your Treatment May Include:
Maintaining Your Game:
We understand that racquet sports are often a lifestyle, not just exercise. Whether you play regularly at your club, compete in leagues, or simply enjoy matches with friends, staying on the court matters. Our treatment plans respect your schedule and goals, working efficiently to restore function and keep you playing.
Performance Enhancement:
Many players benefit from our services even without injury. We provide movement assessments, power development programs, and mobility work to improve serve speed, court coverage, and endurance while reducing injury risk.
