What is a Sports Physical?

A sports physical, or pre-participation physical exam (PPE), is a necessary step for athletes at any level. This exam identifies potential health concerns, assesses overall physical readiness, and provides tailored guidance to support safe and effective participation in physical activities.

Why Choose Lifecare Primary Medical?

At Lifecare Primary Medical, our physicians are committed to helping athletes maintain their health and prevent injuries. We focus on thorough assessments and personalized recommendations to give each athlete the best foundation for a safe and successful season.

Step 1: Comprehensive Evaluation

The sports physical begins with a detailed evaluation. We review the athlete’s medical history, previous injuries, and any concerns that could affect their ability to compete safely.

Step 2: Physical Examination

Next, our physicians perform a complete physical exam, including checks on heart and lung function, flexibility, and joint stability. This evaluation helps identify any risks and ensures the athlete’s body is prepared for the demands of their sport.

Step 3: Personalized Guidance for Athletes

Our doctors provide individualized advice based on the results of the evaluation. This includes tips on conditioning, strength training, and specific exercises to prevent injuries, tailored to the athlete’s sport and fitness level.

Ongoing Health and Safety Support

We recognize that athletic needs can change over time. Lifecare Primary Medical offers follow-up appointments to monitor health and provide ongoing support, especially for athletes managing demanding training schedules or recovering from previous injuries.

Guidelines from the American Medical Society for Sports Medicine (AMSSM)

The AMSSM outlines key components for an effective sports physical:

  • Comprehensive Medical Review: Reviewing the athlete’s medical history, family health risks, and any past injuries or symptoms experienced during exercise.
  • Thorough Physical Examination: Evaluating cardiovascular health, lung capacity, and musculoskeletal strength to ensure the athlete is fit for competition.
  • Injury Prevention Strategies: Personalized advice on stretching, conditioning, and strengthening exercises to prevent common sports-related injuries.
  • Nutrition and Mental Health Support: Offering guidance on maintaining balanced nutrition and mental well-being to support optimal performance.

These guidelines ensure a well-rounded evaluation, but each athlete’s exam is tailored to their unique health profile under a healthcare provider’s expertise.

The Lifecare Primary Medical Difference

At Lifecare Primary Medical, we don’t just provide a sports physical; we offer a full spectrum of care to keep athletes in peak condition. Our physicians take a holistic approach, providing personalized attention to meet the specific needs of each individual so they can confidently compete at their best.
