Sports therapy may be beneficial for injured athletes in the Tampa, Clearwater, and St. Petersburg, Florida, area who want to return to the playing field as quickly and safely as possible. Advances in orthopedic care have made it easier than ever before to regain mobility and strength following injury. If you are an injured athlete, be sure to consult with a sports medicine expert regarding what treatments and therapies may help you get back in the game.

Tampa Orthopaedic & Sports Medicine Group (a division of Florida Medical Clinic) offers a range of conservative sports therapy treatments to promote increased range of motion and strength, including platelet rich plasma (PRP) injections, viscosupplementation, ultrasound therapy, physical therapy, cortisone injections, and more. In fact, our practice is led by two board-certified physicians – orthopedic surgeon Dr. Daniel Murphy and sports medicine specialist Dr. Arnold Ramirez – who are also trusted to care for the Tampa area’s finest athletes. Dr. Murphy is a team physician for the New York Yankees and Tampa Bay Buccaneers, and Dr. Ramirez is the head team physician for the Buccaneers.

In the event that your condition does not improve with conservative sports therapy treatment, surgery may be necessary to fully restore your health. Dr. Murphy has ample experience performing orthopedic surgeries using minimally invasive techniques, and will be happy to review your treatment options with you and help you make an informed decision.
