Sports Injury Care at CLS Health

Helping You Heal and Get Back to the Activities You Love

An injury can take you out of the game and away from the moments that make life fulfilling. We understand how important it is to stay active, whether you're a competitive athlete, a weekend warrior, or simply moving for your health and well-being.

When a sports injury happens, our orthopedic and sports medicine specialists are here to help you heal fully, recover safely, and get back to doing what you love most.

We offer personalized care plans tailored to your injury, your goals, and your timeline, combining expert diagnosis, leading-edge treatments, and compassionate support at every step.

Common Sports Injuries We Treat

Sports injuries can affect nearly any part of the body. Our specialists diagnose and treat a wide range of conditions, including:

Upper Body Injuries

  • Shoulder injuries (rotator cuff tears, labral tears, dislocations)
  • Elbow injuries (tennis elbow, golfer’s elbow, ligament sprains)
  • Wrist and hand injuries (sprains, fractures, tendonitis)

Lower Body Injuries

  • Knee injuries (ACL tears, meniscus tears, patellar tendonitis, runner’s knee)

  • Ankle injuries (sprains, fractures, Achilles tendonitis)

Head and Neck Injuries

No matter how complex or minor your injury may seem, early evaluation and the right care can make all the difference in your recovery.

Signs You Should See a Specialist

Injuries aren’t always obvious — and pushing through pain can make things worse. If you’re experiencing any of the following, it’s time to seek care:

  • Persistent pain or swelling after activity
  • Joint instability or a feeling that something is “giving out”
  • Difficulty bearing weight, walking, or performing everyday activities
  • Loss of normal strength or range of motion
  • Symptoms of a possible concussion (headache, dizziness, confusion, sensitivity to light)

Addressing these issues early can prevent worsening symptoms and reduce downtime.

How We Diagnose Sports Injuries

We take a comprehensive approach to diagnosis, ensuring we understand the full extent of your injury and your goals for recovery. Your evaluation may include:

  • Physical Examination: Checking swelling, tenderness, strength, stability, and range of motion.
  • Functional Tests: Assessing movement patterns and joint function under stress.
  • Imaging: X-rays to detect fractures and MRI scans to visualize soft tissue damage.

A thorough diagnosis helps us choose the most effective next steps for your recovery.

Treatment and Recovery Options

Every patient and every injury deserves a tailored plan. Your personalized treatment may include:

  • Non-Surgical Care: Rest, targeted physical therapy, bracing, injections such as corticosteroids or platelet-rich plasma (PRP).
  • Surgical Solutions: Minimally invasive procedures for ligament repairs, tendon reconstructions, and cartilage restoration when necessary.
  • Rehabilitation and Return-to-Play Programs: Custom therapy plans to rebuild strength, improve flexibility, and lower the risk of re-injury.

We are committed to helping you heal fully and return safely to the activities you love — stronger and more resilient than before.
