Helping Athletes With Acute Injuries: Key Rehab Strategies with Dan Pope
Hey all!
You may have heard that we recently opened up enrollment for the next cohort of the Champion PT Mentorship with myself, Mike Reinold, and Dan Pope which you can see here

One of the most common topics we got questions on during the first cohort was how to deal with the super acute phase of an injury when there is lots of pain, swelling, strength loss, and limited function.
So, I thought ahead of cohort 2 it would be good to chat about managing the acute phase of PT with Dan. In this podcast episode we discuss
- Why the acute care of PT is so intimidating
- What exercises and hands on techniques we use for pain, swelling, and strength early on
- When athlets are safe to progress off crutches and braces
- When athletes can think about returning to sport
We hope you enjoy!
