The Flare-Up Cycle (Athlete Version)
Athletes often experience:
- Minor tightness
- Train through it
- Load increases
- Tissue capacity exceeded
- Pain forces time off
The issue is rarely just “tightness.” It’s often a mismatch between load and tissue capacity.
We work to increase capacity — not just reduce symptoms.
Return-to-Training Strategy
Instead of telling you to “rest,” we:
- Identify movement inefficiencies
- Improve joint mechanics
- Build stabilizing strength
- Integrate gradual loading
