Skiing Physical Therapy

Physical Therapy for Skiers
Skiers mostly enter our practice as a result of a knee injury.  The most common are the rupture of the Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) or boot top fracture.  At BreakThrough Physical Therapy our physical therapists are prepared to work with you for helping develop a pre-ski training program to help with injury prevention as well as post-injury and post-surgical physical therapy care.  Successful programs have been developed and target all key muscle groups to improve strength, stability, agility and conditioning program, specifically targeted to the demands their body will require in the snow.  We have a large open gym area that is setup specifically to allow us to run various circuit training and plyometric activities as well as all the tools to help the acute or post-operative physical therapy patient.  At BreakThrough Physical Therapy, we take a comprehensive approach to address all areas of weakness or inflexibility to ensure that you are prepared for your desired level of activity (especially skiing) upon discharge.

I am ready for the season unlike ever before.  Thanks for the targeted training to help me prepare for my best ski season in years.


I thought that after my anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) rupture, I’d never return to the slopes without a big clunky brace, but I actually feel that with all the hard work I put in combined with your guidance that I may be even stronger than I have been on the slopes in a long time.
