My daughter is on the ski team at her high school. I have never worried about her before, because my husband and I have taken all the kids skiing every year since they were old enough to stand on a pair of skis. The same can’t be said for the other kids on the team though. One girl was on a hill that was beyond her ability, and she plowed right into my daughter, causing a shoulder injury. Thankfully, the doctor at the hospital said she would just need physical therapy in Altamonte Springs FL after a few weeks of resting it, and the specialist we went to agreed with that assessment.
There are several different options in our region for physical therapy, so I looked at each of them in detail. I wanted one that was going to give my daughter the attention she needed to get her shoulder back in tip top shape. I did not want a generic program where she would be able to regain use but not ever recover 100 percent. It did not take me long to find the best physical therapy center for sports injuries.
I was able to get an appointment right away. I was just a tad bit concerned because our insurance can be selective, but we had no problem at all with the insurance company working with this physical therapy company to get my daughter back into perfect shape. They designed a program around her injury, and the exercises she did were designed to work her shoulder to its maximum capacity. She was in a good deal of pain during this time, but she handled it like a champ. She was in physical therapy for over two months. Today, you cannot even tell that she had limited use of her shoulder just a year ago!
