Don’t ignore anxiety and depression after ACL injury!
Our job is to BUILD, ENCOURAGE, and INSPIRE our athletes!
Environment matters. Athletes should be in a gym with other athletes their age not a clinic where they feel isolated and alone. https://t.co/mICuQ3xoiL

“I get massages two times a week, I see a chiropractor, I get all the types of treatments and dry needling. But I think the lifting component has really helped me this year to kind of stay toned up and really in shape” -yes athletes need to lift in season! https://t.co/xyy5gTzH79
“If girls aren't strong enough, the forces from dynamic actions like cutting, sprinting, and changing direction will go to the bones and joints and cause stress fractures, soft tissue injuries, and ACL tears”https://t.co/juA262OZgY via @fitsoccerqueen
This is the end goal right here! Just remember every time your patient comes in for PT this is what they dream of, playing to sport they love once again. The rehab journey is brutal but as PTs it’s our job to keep them going and never let them quit.
Coming back from ACL reconstruction is a long mental & physical journey…If you’ve been through it, you understand this pic of @obj! #NeverQuit#Gratitude
🧠Ages 0-13 is the most crucial time in a young female athlete's life -to build her body, wire her brain, and expose her to a multitude of environments. https://t.co/9zdz8SqEow via @fitsoccerqueen
As you go through your athletic journey you will start to understand that it’s not about what you accomplish or how many accolades you receive. It’s not just winning/awards. It’s all about the person you become, how many people you help & how you treat & respect those around you!
This is why you should have a team of sports professionals working together to help athletes reduce the risk of ACL injury and rehab after surgery! And never ever forget the importance of the brain 🧠 @traininthecore
