Sports Medicine at Astera Health

Sports medicine professionals at Astera include: 

  • Certified athletic trainers. As highly qualified and multi-skilled healthcare professionals, athletic trainers (ATs) offer a wide range of services to their patients. Working under the direction of or in collaboration with a physician, ATs can oversee preventive care, diagnose orthopedic conditions, treat sports injuries, and provide rehabilitation services. They work closely with other healthcare providers to ensure the best outcomes for their patients and are an essential part of the healthcare team. 
  • Chiropractors. A chiropractor is a healthcare professional specializing in diagnosing and treating neuromuscular disorders through manual adjustment and manipulation of the spine and other musculoskeletal structures, often focusing on improving alignment to alleviate pain and enhance overall well-being. Our chiropractors have special training in sports medicine. They use this training to help bring health and healing to hurting athletes. 
  • Orthopedic surgeons. An orthopedic surgeon specializes in the diagnosis, treatment, prevention, and rehabilitation of disorders, injuries, and diseases of the musculoskeletal system. If a sports injury causes a break, tear, or other severe trauma that requires emergency medicine, surgery may be necessary.
