Sports rehabilitation and physical therapy share many similarities. Both focus on improving movement, reducing pain and aiding recovery. Sports rehabilitation is tailored for athletes and active people who want to return to peak athletic performance. It helps prevent sports-related injuries, improves performance and addresses biomechanical imbalances that could hinder athletic ability.
