Over my many years of treating ACL injuries, I have found that many athletes fear that surgery is the only option when it comes to an ACL Injury. But that is not always the case! More often than not it can be treated with therapy that specifically looks at having their whole leg work together! That is what my expert team and I have spent our years perfecting, so you can get back into the game in a much more reasonable amount of time.
The anterior cruciate ligament, ACL, is a strong band of tissues that helps connect your thigh bone to your tibia.
An ACL injury occurs when there is a tear or sprain of the ligament. It’s most commonly obtained during sports that involve sudden stops and changes in direction as well as jumping and landing – such as football, basketball, and soccer.
While some ACL injuries may require surgery and a year on the sidelines, with my years of expert experience I have been able to assist hundreds of athletes in naturally recovering from their ACL injuries and back into the game!
ACL injuries are often encountered during sports or fitness activities that naturally put stress on the knee due to the movements involved. There are several movements that can be more likely to cause an ACL injury. These include: Suddenly slowing down or stopping, sudden changes of direction, pivoting on your standing foot, landing awkwardly from a jump, and receiving a direct blow or collision to the knee.
While we can’t predict when an ACL injury is going to happen, we can do our best to prevent it by correctly training and exercising the leg muscles as a whole.
That is where I, the leading ACL injury expert in Rockland, NY, can help you! By using my expert knowledge we can rehabilitate the original injury naturally as well as make a plan to manage the area appropriately afterward to reduce the chances of further injury.
While major ACL injuries don’t go unnoticed, we have seen countless patients over the years who have suffered an ACL injury that has just shown itself as some discomfort and pain in the knee.
Because there doesn’t need to be contact for an ACL injury most people assume that this discomfort is nothing serious and continue to play on through the pain.
But by doing this what may have started out as a sprain can quickly become a tear! As the leading ACL injury expert in Rockland County, NY, not only am I able to help your recovery from any current ACL injuries but also put in place a training plan that will help avoid any future ACL injuries.
