IRG Physical & Hand Therapy - Sports Institute

The IRG Sports Institute is the performance division of Integrated Rehabilitation Group; offering orthopedics, sports rehabilitation and sports performance training all under one roof.

We use our experienced and expert performance team – comprised of physical therapists, athletic trainers, strength and conditioning coaches and sport coaches – to support athletes and everyday active people. We strive to help all of our athletes enjoy the discoveries they make on the path towards success. No matter what the performance goal or reason for participation in sport may be, each training session leads us to learning bigger lessons than the original intended destination.

Injury Prevention

Injury prevention is the driving force behind all of our programming. We pride ourselves in helping our student-athletes avoid injury, training roadblocks, and make up for time lost during injury.

We actively take precautions that include prescreening, communication with members of the rehabilitative and orthopedic teams, and documenting ongoing progress.

Functional Training

Activities in life and sport occur by multi-joint and multi-planar movements and patterns. We replicate this same idea in all of our training programs to better facilitate the everyday demands and needs of performing to the best of your ability. Programming modifications are based on personal needs and demands of the individual – from “prehab,” movement training, strength, and recovery needs.

Ground Based Movements

A further extension of functional training, most fundamental movements skills are initiated by applying force into the ground by the feet. All of our performance, movement (speed, agility and related), and strength development programs focus on enhancing this ability to maintain and/or increase this important element that is so often replicated in the activities of daily living.

Recovery

Training is only a part of the equation of performing your best. The educational component of recovery is emphasized every session for continued development of flexibility, mobility, stability, improved tissue quality, proper rest and nutrition. Ongoing education about the most important aspects of recovery often falls by the wayside of even the most active individuals. With our certified and registered staff, we will implement realistic and practical tools to help all athletes understand how to deal with the most complicated roadblocks.
