Whether it’s an ACL tear, meniscal injury, patellar tendinopathy, or ligament sprain, these injuries can seriously disrupt an athlete’s performance and confidence. At Bethesda Physiocare, we specialize in knee rehab for athletes—helping them not only recover but return stronger, faster, and safer.

The Bethesda Physiocare Difference: Rehab Designed for Athletes
What sets us apart from a typical rehab clinic is our deep understanding of sport biomechanics and the unique demands athletes face. Our team includes highly trained orthopedic physical therapists who have worked extensively with college and professional athletes across multiple sports. We understand that an elite runner has different movement patterns and rehab needs than a soccer forward or a basketball guard—and we design every program accordingly.
We don’t just treat the injury; we train for the sport.
A Full Continuum of Care: From Initial Rehab to Return-to-Sport Testing
At Bethesda Physiocare, we guide athletes through the entire rehabilitation process. That includes:
- Acute injury management and pain reduction
- Progressive strengthening and neuromuscular re-education
- Sport-specific movement retraining
- Objective return-to-sport testing
Our goal is to make sure you’re truly ready before you step back on the field or court. We use evidence-based return-to-sport protocols that assess key variables like strength symmetry, power output, movement quality, and confidence—so we’re not guessing when it’s safe for you to return.
Advanced Technology That Sets Us Apart
Our state-of-the-art gym is equipped with cutting-edge technology that gives our athletes a clear edge in their recovery:
- Proteus Motion: One of the only machines of its kind on the East Coast, Proteus allows us to assess and train athletes in 3D movement patterns that mimic real sports actions. We can gather detailed force, speed, and power data across a full range of motion to ensure balanced development and identify potential deficits before they lead to reinjury.
- Oxefit: This advanced platform combines resistance training and force plate technology, allowing us to measure force production in real time. It’s ideal for sport-specific strength training and offers critical data for return-to-play decision-making.
- Dry needling: can be a helpful treatment for certain types of knee injuries, especially when muscle tightness, trigger points, or soft tissue dysfunction are contributing factors.
These tools allow us to create individualized, sport-specific rehab programs and perform objective testing to make sure you’re ready to go—not just symptom-free.
Reducing Injury Risk, Maximizing Performance
Returning to your sport after a knee injury is more than just feeling “okay.” It’s about knowing your body can perform—cutting, jumping, sprinting—without hesitation or increased risk. At Bethesda Physiocare, we combine our clinical expertise, advanced technology, and athlete-focused training to help you return to play with confidence.
Whether you’re a high school athlete, a college standout, or a professional competitor, we’re here to help you rebuild, recondition, and return better than ever.
