You’re Invited to Participate in Innovative Healthcare Centers ACL Prevention Program

Did you know ACL tears are one of the most common injuries requiring surgery in the athletic population? Not only are female athletes at a greater risk for ACL tears, but there is a 25% chance of re-tearing a torn ACL in the future. 

Innovative Healthcare Centers has created an ACL Prevention Program to assist you and your athletes in reducing risk for knee injuries. Our program is designed to:

• Provide your team or athlete with an interactive team workout run by one of our therapists, it is simple yet challenging, allows for team bonding, and remains fit during our current at home limitations. 

• Prepare athletes to return to a high level of play, while reducing their risk of injury.

• Give athletes the fundamentals in strength training to help prevent ACL injuries as well as other common lower extremity injuries.

The training sessions will be led by a Physical Therapist, to ensure each client is performing with correct biomechanics and is able to safely perform each exercise. We will be able to give adjustments if we see compensations as well as progressions if the exercise does not challenge the individual. 

In addition to our weekly programs, we are also providing each athlete with an individual screening. Through a series of unique screening tests, we can help determine your athlete’s risk for injury and create a more individualized program to meet your child’s specific needs.
