Excelerate Sports Therapy

This is why I love my job...
"Oh, you're a trainer?" "NO! I'm an Athletic Therapist, not a trainer" "Oh, that's cool, I wanted to do that. What do you make?" "WHAT DO I MAKE?" "I make an ankle sprain that some say should take four weeks to get your child back on the field, playable in a week. I can devise your rehab program after a total knee replacement so you can run......in that marathon you've always dreamed of. I can tape an ankle before your kid misses 2 minutes of play. I can make saving your child's life easier by explaining "getting your bell rung" isn't normal, it can be deadly. I can help you, and your child, survive a heart attack. I can look at a wrestler's p*e and tell them how much water to drink. I can make an athlete bigger, faster, stronger. I can translate "doctorese" from "torn anterior talofibular ligament" into ankle sprain. I went to college to EARN A DEGREE in more than just "water providing" but also injury prevention, evaluation, rehabilitation, administration, and overall problem listening. And I do it because I love my athletes, and I love my profession. Today, I might ice your knee, tomorrow I might save your life. I hope I make a difference, what do you make?" RE-POST if you are an Athletic Therapist or you love an Athletic Therapist.
