Return to Sport Analysis

Getting Back to the Activities You Love—Safely and Confidently

Returning to sports after an injury, surgery, or period of inactivity requires more than simply feeling better. A physical therapist can perform a comprehensive Return to Sport analysis to determine whether your body is ready for the demands of your sport.

What Is Return to Sport Analysis?

A Return to Sport analysis evaluates your strength, mobility, balance, coordination, and functional movement to identify any remaining limitations or injury risks.

Your physical therapist will assess how well your body can handle sport-specific movements before you return to full participation.
