Denver's Best Sports Physical Therapy
Is your body holding back your horse from performing at their best? Our performance physical therapists are here to help!
Have you been experiencing pain while riding in a lesson or on competition day?
Your own muscle imbalances and mobility restrictions may be contributing to your horse’s imbalances and compensations.
Dr. Sarah Shyu PT, DPT, an equestrian herself,
truly understands how to help riders:
Our performance physical therapy team is designed to help equestrian athletes not only get out of pain, but truly improve your riding ability by improving your foundational core strength and flexibility to reduce your risk of going through the same injury all over again.
Your horseback riding technique is being limited by riding related injuries (falls, chronic pain while riding, dismounting injuries) | Your horseback riding technique is being limited by non-riding related injuries (ex: old sports injuries, poor posture and/or mobility from sitting at your 9-5 desk job) | You often “lose steam” at the end of your lesson or round in competition causing faults or pain post-competition |
You have tried traditional physical therapy in the past for pain while riding but didn’t get great results (or your pain has returned!). | You have tried traditional physical therapy in the past for pain while riding but you never got into a sport-specific strengthening routine. | Your horse frequently needs rehab tools (chiropractic, acupuncture, massage) to make up for your own imbalances and compensations. |
If any of these scenarios sound like you – you are in the right place!
Unlike most other traditional physical therapy clinics, UNITE.rehab.perform helps equestrians overcome injuries because we actually understand your sport!Whether you are dealing with an acute traumatic injury, chronic overuse injury, or recovering from a surgery, the team at UNITE.rehab.perform is well equipped to lead the way in your recovery journey!
