In support of local High School athletics, Performance Physical Therapy, provides athletic trainers in the following high schools:

• Luther Burbank
• John F. Kennedy
• Center
• Davis
• Elk Grove
• West Campus
• Hiram Johnson

Having an Athletic Trainer on the field is critical in assisting with the prevention, evaluation, management and rehabilitation of injuries. These contracts allow Athletic Trainers to attend home games for JV and Varsity teams as well as travel with the team for away football teams.

Our practice offers high school athletics reduced rates for their injury rehabilitation at either of our two clinics and we enjoy working in partnership with the team physician, athletic director and athletic trainer to get them back on the field.
