Athletic Training In School Districts

Our certified athletic trainers work closely with local school districts and student athletes in the prevention of, and for the initial treatment of, sports related injuries.

What is the Athletic Training Program?

Our certified athletic trainers work closely with local school districts and student athletes in the prevention of, and for the initial treatment of, sports related injuries. Our trained therapists can provide the student or adult athlete with a more specialized treatment. We will help you recognize the physical limitations resulting from sports injuries and get you back in the game as soon as possible. We perform baseline concussion testing and preseason injury prevention screenings to help identify any problems or conditions that can affect participation or play. WESTARM Physical Therapy offers a structured concussion management program utilizing best practices and state-of-the-art equipment to help answer the question, “Can this athlete return to play?”.
