Sports Rehab

Return to Peak Performance

What Is Sports Rehab?

Sports rehabilitation is a structured approach to recovering from injury and rebuilding the strength, stability, and movement patterns you need to perform at your best. It goes beyond pain relief. The focus is on why the injury happened and how to prevent it from coming back.

Dr. Melnick combines clinical sports medicine expertise with functional movement training. Whether you are a competitive athlete, a weekend warrior, or someone getting back into fitness, rehab is designed around your sport, schedule, and timeline for return to activity.

Who Can Benefit?

• Runners dealing with knee, hip, or Achilles overuse injuries
• Golfers and tennis players with shoulder, elbow, or rotational strain
• CrossFit, HIIT, and gym athletes recovering from sprains or tendon issues
• Post-surgical patients cleared for active rehabilitation
• Anyone sidelined by an injury who wants a clear path back to training

What to Expect

Each session starts with an assessment of how you move, where compensation patterns show up, and what tissues need attention. Treatment may include adjustments, soft tissue work, dry needling, or cupping, paired with corrective exercises you can practice between visits.

Progress is measured in function, not just pain levels. You will know when it is safe to load, sprint, lift, or compete again. In-home visits mean rehab happens where you actually train and live, making it easier to stay consistent.
