Sports Medicine

Sports Medicine focuses on the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of non-operative sports-related injuries. These  injuries to the brain, bone, muscle, or ligaments can result from an acute injury, or “wear and tear” on the body over time.

Being active and playing sports are so good for you, both physically and mentally. But there is an inherent risk of injury.

When you injure yourself during exercise or while playing a sport, you want to get back to your routine and athletic pursuits as soon as you can. Sports medicine physicians have specialized training to help you do just that. 
Dr. Lake is also experienced in preventing injury in active kids and adults, and people who have physically demanding jobs.
Dr. Lake offers a very unique approach to both prevention and treatment of musculoskeletal injuries by using both osteopathic treatment techniques and sports medicine modalites, including exercise prescriptions, stretching, and injections. 
There are many treatments available for both acute and chronic conditions. Whether your injury happened yesterday or many years ago, Dr. Lake's approach may be exactly what you need to get back in the game.
