Getting you back in the gym

Is an injury slowing you down, keeping you out of practice, or threatening your season?

Have you been to the doctor but told to rest instead of how to practice?

You don't have to choose between taking care of your health and keeping up with your gymnastics. There's a better way.

At Walker Sports Therapy we help you recover from your injuries while you stay in the gym, level up your skills, and maximize your gymnastics career

Being injured is always tough, but it can be even worse for a gymnast. You don't get any days off, and you can't afford to fall behind in your skills. So while you want to get as much done as possible to get ready to compete, you also don't want to risk injuring yourself more, which could lead to more time off or affect your future career.

Unfortunately, most doctors and therapists don't et gymnasts. They mean well, but they aren't used to seeing such specialized and dedicated athletes, so they often tell them to rest or get surgery. They tell you what you can't do, but you need to know what you can do.

Do you worry that...

If the pain doesn't get better, you're going to have to sit out completely?

You might not be practicing in a safe way?

Your body may never get back to how it felt before, much less full strength and flexibility?

If you don't get back to full practice soon, you'll miss this competition season?

If you answered “Yes” to any of these questions, don’t worry.

You’re in the right place!

Talk to a PT

Maybe you've heard that...

"Maybe you should take it easy in practice or it's inevitable you'll get injured more."

"The only options are rest or surgery."

"There's nothing you can do to avoid surgery."

"You may never get back to the way you were before."

At Walker Sports PT, we hear this story every day, but you don't have to accept these answers.

We know how frustrating it can be to not know what you should be doing during practice or how you can get stay involved without risking more injuries.

That’s why you need someone who's experienced in treating gymnasts like you. You need someone who knows how to help you recover from your injury sooner and also how important it is to keep you practicing and advancing as much as possible.

We work with your coaches to modify your practice and routines to maximize what you can do. Then we develop a custom program to strengthen weak or injured part so you come back sooner and stronger than ever.

What gymnasts in Charlotte, NC are saying:

Christine was the best! My daughter had an elbow injury that the doctor said would require surgery. He told us to sit out for 6 weeks, but Christine helped her figure out the skills she could keep working on. Now, 6 weeks later, she's feeling better, doesn't need surgery, and is getting ready for the season! Thank you!

Samantha

When my back started hurting after practice one day, Dr. Walker saw me for free and taught me what I was doing wrong to put strain on my back. Now it feels so much better, I don't think I need to see the surgeon anymore. I'm working with her instead!
