Athletic Performance Rehabilitation & Training

Athletic Performance Rehabilitation & Training

At Medical Grade Physiotherapy & Wellness in Burlington, we work with athletes of all levels—from weekend runners to competitive athletes—who want to recover from injuries, improve performance, and train safely. Our Athletic Performance Rehabilitation & Training program is designed to help you move better, compete stronger, and reduce the risk of future injuries.

What Is Athletic Performance Rehabilitation?

Athletic performance rehabilitation focuses on identifying the root cause of pain or dysfunction and rebuilding your strength, mobility, and movement patterns. We look beyond the injured area and assess the whole body, including biomechanics, muscle imbalances, joint restrictions, and sport-specific demands.

Common Conditions We Treat

Athletes often come to us for help with:

• Muscle strains and ligament sprains

• Tendon injuries (Achilles, patellar, rotator cuff, etc.)

• Overuse injuries such as shin splints or IT band syndrome

• Joint pain in the shoulders, hips, knees, or ankles

• Post-surgical rehabilitation

• Chronic tightness, stiffness, or recurring pain
