Sports injury questions, answered
Do you only treat competitive athletes?
No. Care is built for athletes of every age and level, from youth and high school players to weekend warriors and adults staying active. If a sport or workout left you hurting, you belong here.
How does shockwave therapy help a sports injury?
Shockwave therapy uses focused acoustic waves to stimulate circulation and tissue repair in stubborn tendon and soft tissue injuries. It is a strong option for the nagging tendon problems that do not settle with rest alone.
Can I keep training while I recover?
Often, with adjustments. After the exam, Dr. Filippini gives honest guidance on what to keep doing, what to scale back, and how taping or rehab exercise can let you stay active while the injury heals.
What is Dr. Filippini's background with athletes?
He was a scholarship wrestler at Illinois State University, served as team chiropractor on the medical staff of a professional indoor football team, and has worked closely with local high school and youth sports teams since 2008.
