What is Sports Medicine
Sports Medicine is a multidisciplinary field that aims to optimize the health and performance of athletes of all ages and abilities as well as treats osteoarthritis and autoimmune arthritis such as rheumatoid and psoriatic arthritis. It focuses on treating the musculoskeletal system including bones, muscles, joints, tendons, ligaments and connective tissues. Sports Medicine physicians treat injuries caused by active lifestyles for both athletes and non-athletes alike.
It encompasses not only medical treatment but also a holistic approach to wellness and injury prevention. Treatment includes an array of sports-related injuries such as sprains, strained, fractures, tendonitis, overuse injuries, concussions, and assistance with return to sport. The focus is to assist with return to activity as quickly and safely as possible as well as optimizing performance outcomes.
