Typical Symptoms:
Common Causes:
Our therapy protocol includes controlled loading exercises, bracing or taping if needed, and joint stabilization routines. By retraining proper mechanics, we help prevent recurrent ligament injuries. In Palm Beach County, from Boynton Beach’s athletes to Boca Raton’s active retirees, ligament damage is common in knees, ankles, wrists, and more. Early interventions usually involve protecting the joint and minimizing swelling. As you progress, we focus on dynamic stability exercises—balance drills, plyometric progressions, or sport-specific movements—depending on your goals. For example, if it’s an ankle sprain, we’d incorporate wobble boards; for a knee ligament injury, we’d implement targeted quadriceps/hamstring work. Our aim is to return you to your desired activities with confidence in your joint stability.

Key Benefits:
Minor sprains can heal in 2–4 weeks, whereas major tears or post-surgical cases may require several months of dedicated rehab. Our therapists will regularly assess your range of motion, strength, and joint stability, progressing you through stages of healing. By adhering to your home exercise program and following any bracing instructions, you’ll optimize your recovery timeline and minimize the chances of re-injury down the road.
Should I wear a brace during sports?
Braces or supportive taping can help in the short term, but strengthening is critical for long-term stability.
Will a torn ligament heal on its own?
Partial tears may heal with conservative management. Complete tears often need surgical repair, followed by rehab.
Is your pain keeping you from fully enjoying your day?
Do you wish it would just disappear, but it continues to trouble you?
If you answered “yes” to any of these questions, we understand how frustrating and overwhelming persistent pain can be. That’s why we’re here to help. Our caring team of physical therapists will listen to your concerns, create a custom treatment plan just for you, and work by your side every step of the way—so you can get back to living life on your terms.
