About Sports Center

We’re pleased that you’ve found us. Sports Center is a physical therapy practice in Austin, Texas that helps you regain an active lifestyle.

Our methods are non-invasive, systematic and measurable. And we accurately identify your specific injury and design a systematic rebuilding program just for you.

Has an injury robbed you of your vitality?

Maybe you can’t exercise, garden, cycle, run, enjoy the outdoors, or play golf like you once did. Pain, aching, stiffness and swelling keeps you from enjoying life. If this describes your situation, we can help.

Sports Center is devoted to:

• Teaching you why you have symptoms, what the symptoms mean and what to do about them.
• Returning you to your former active, athletic self as quickly as possible while addressing the root causes of your symptoms. In other words, we treat your injury, NOT just your symptoms. We don’t believe in band-aid treatments that temporarily mask the discomfort and pain.
• Providing you with a lifetime plan to maintain your active lifestyle and prevent future injuries.

Our Rationale

Several scientific studies have shown that one of the main reasons people do not exercise is because the exercise routine hurts. This leads to a sedentary lifestyle, a gradual acceleration of the aging process and a decline in overall quality of life.

Sports Center’s fundamental concept is simple: If you cannot exercise, you cannot stay healthy. If you cannot stay healthy, you age faster.

Our Methods and Techniques

There are a lot of things that can reduce pain and symptoms but our methods and techniques go beyond this to make you healthier, stronger, and more fit. Discover how we do it.

Your rebuilding program will be designed by a designated member of our clinical team thoroughly trained in the Sports Center methods and techniques. And as a Sports Center client, you’ll also have access to the input of our entire team. Rest assured, you’re in capable, expert hands.

Physical Therapists Who Coach

When you become a Sports Center client, you’ll enjoy working with a group of expert, licensed physical therapists who are also gifted coaches. They’ll teach you how to identify and move past your barriers, and take you from one level of ability to the next. And, just as it is in sports, working with the same coach is critical to your success. That’s why at Sports Center, you’ll work with the same physical therapist throughout your rebuilding program. And your Sports Center physical therapist will always give you:

• Education. We’ll give you clear, fundamental information to help you make better choices about your body.
• Measurable progress. We’ll set physical markers and measure your improvement every step of the way.
• Training. We’ll customize a rebuilding program built to help you achieve your unique goals.
• Motivation. You’ll enjoy friendly, focused sessions that will inspire you to work hard, have fun and reach your goals.

Why The Name Sports Center?

You might think that with a name like Sports Center, we would only see serious, competitive “athletes.” Not true.

While we do treat competitive athletes, many of our clients are mothers and fathers, accountants and construction workers — just everyday people — who want to regain an active, athletic lifestyle.

The intention of sports, dating back to the early Greeks, was to participate in an activity for the sake of the activity itself, and to perform to the best of your ability. Running, for example, was not a means of transportation, but a time to simply run the best you can. Sports served as a vehicle for not only developing a healthy body, but also a healthy mind: learning how to handle success and failure, set goals and maintain focus. Sports made you better – mind and body.

To get better means, “to advance to a more desirable, valuable or excellent state.” And the only way you can get better is by being challenged to do your best; perform at the top of your ability.

That’s why we’re here. Let us help you regain an active lifestyle.
