Akron Children's offers the only pediatric-focused sports rehabilitation program in northeast Ohio. We treat children ages 12 and up, as well as young adults who have injuries affecting their participation in sports and exercise.

Using evidence-based practice, our team of experienced professionals provides comprehensive rehab services and individualized treatment plans for each athlete. We work closely with our sports medicine physicians and orthopedic surgeons in the care of our patients.

Our team includes athletic trainers, physical therapists, nurse practitioners and dietitians, who offer the only pediatric-focused sports rehab program in northeast Ohio. We work with our sports medicine doctors in diagnosing and treating sports and activity-related injuries, including counseling patients on proper nutrition and training practices to prevent injury. We also work closely with our orthopedic surgeons when sports rehab isn't enough.

Our services include:

  • Comprehensive evaluations
  • Customized, sport-specific treatment plans
  • Biomechanical analysis of sport-specific activities or movements
  • Sports performance and training analysis with 3-D technology
  • Gait and running analysis/retraining and custom orthotic fabrication
  • Force plate analysis to measure the effects of running, walking or jumping on the lower body
  • Rehabilitation following concussion
  • Pilates mat and reformer instruction, training and treatment
  • Manual therapy including mobilizations and Graston Technique® and Active Release Technique®
  • Trigger point dry needling
  • Ongoing consultation with athletes, parents, physicians and coaches

As an affiliate organization with the American Society for Sports Medicine (AOSSM), we are dedicated to educating athletes, parents, athletic trainers, coaches and healthcare providers about the rapid increase in youth sports injuries, the necessary steps to help reverse the trend, and the need to keep young athletes healthy.
