ACL Post Surgical Rehabilitation

The Anterior Cruciate Ligament is the most common surgically repaired ligament in the body. Nevada Physical Therapy is the only physical therapy clinic in Reno that has re-written the protocol for this devastating injury, which has garnered recognition on a national platform by some of the top physical therapists and physicians in the country. We pride ourselves on actively trying to push the rehab conversation forward on this injury by creating the most up-to-date evidence-based protocol in the industry.

What makes our protocol unique? First, it is essential to understand the current limitations of conventional ACL rehab protocols. Did you know, 87% of return-to-sport criteria use only time from surgery and patient's self-report as the primary determination if an individual is ready to return to regular activity? We offer a multi-tiered return-to-sport assessment to create a complete picture of an athlete (or weekend warrior!) before clearing them for sport. Of patients who have elected to pursue surgical reconstruction of their ACL, >90% believe surgery will return them to their pre-injury levels yet only 66% achieve this goal. Having experienced clinicians who understand the nuanced rehabilitation of this injury may be the key to a successful return to your prior level of activity. You can read our protocol in depth here, as well as this blog post on the current state of ACL post-surgical rehabilitation.

Nick was so attentive to my needs and he structured his schedule to fit mine. My therapy was focused on my strengths and weaknesses; therefore, my recovery time was much shorter than expected. I highly recommend Nevada Physical Therapy for any lingering pain you may be experiencing.

I cannot say enough positive things about this place. Came in with an ACL injury. I spent a few weeks working with jonathan. His evidence-based approach and motivational ability was really really inspiring. He helped me get back to normal and then some!

DAKOTA EZELL is at the top of MY list as a highly skilled, intuitive, present professional who values and treats me as a whole person, not just someone to fill a time slot

The best Physical Therapy place I have ever visited. Rare to see an emphasis on finding the best method to improve injury instead of giving everyone the same plan. But the best part about this place is it's approach to well being during and after PT.

I was referred to Brian Fearnley by someone with significant credibility. I consider working with Brian a huge stroke of luck. This specific 'PT' is increasing my recovery potential a hundred fold. Brian knows his stuff. He is well versed in PT. He has athletic history at UNR and is active in our local community. He is clearly in this profession to help people recover and get under their own power.

After two plus years of hip pain, three other physical therapists, quarterly injections and no relief, Crista made the pain go away! If I could give her and this practice 10 stars I'd do it!

As a professional athlete, injuries can make or break a career. Luckily, in my case, I had Nevada Physical Therapy on my side. Not only did they physically help me recover from a meniscus surgery, but they provided the best emotional support you could ask for in such a difficult time.

Phenomenal. I had some brutal injuries that resulted in four surgeries and seriously disrupted my life. There can be no doubt that the quality of life I enjoy today was a direct result of working with Nevada Physical Therapy.

I attended Nevada Physical Therapy for my post surgery physical therapy and have nothing but great things to say. For any of you reading this, this place is by far the best physical therapy place I have ever attended with exceptional staff. I had the pleasure to work with Dakota who is extremely knowledgeable, patient and would go above and beyond to make sure you're taken care of.
