Unique Value Points of Myo-Fit: Chapter One

Each company or product should have a “something” to set it apart. We call them Unique Value Points and we have several of them! Over time, we will post about them. So, read on to learn about our first one!

Triage. One reason athletic trainers(ATs) exist are to triage injuries or conditions. Traditionally, if an athlete goes down on the field of play, the athletic trainer is there as their first line of defense. We have to determine the level of injury in order to keep the athlete safe and then if they can continue to play or the most appropriate steps. Sometimes that is a physician visit that may lead to a procedure, but the majority of the time, it is an injury that can be treated and rehabilitated under the guidance of the AT. In these cases, the AT becomes the guide and liaison of the healing process, working with the physician and coach as needed. As the healing progresses, the AT transitions to the preventative role so injuries do not occur.
In the Myo-Fit setting, we work with our clients to triage and provide guidance to safely heal and continue in their desired activity(ies) to allow for healing and progression to full participation. As the client transitions into what we call the Excel Phase of healing, we work with them to prevent future injuries, maintain their current level of being pain-free and recover from intense exercise through our use of manual therapy skills and knowledge.

We offer Injury Evaluations at Myo-Fit if you are in pain and aren’t sure what’s going on and would like some guidance on what to do. We also have New Client Consultations for those of you who want an evaluation, treatment and treatment plan! Visit us today at www.myofittherapy.com to find a location near you!
