The goal of sports rehabilitation is to:
- Reduce pain and inflammation
- Restore range of motion and flexibility
- Build strength in the affected area
- Improve overall athletic performance
- Prevent re-injury and future complications

Dr. Mike Makher
A Specialist in Complex Conditions
Dr. Makher is well-versed in addressing many conditions beyond typical sports injuries. He has worked with countless individuals suffering from hypermobility spectrum syndromes, connective tissue disorders such as Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome and Marfan Syndrome, and athletic/sports-based rehab due to injuries from sports such as soccer, basketball, baseball, football, lacrosse, ultimate frisbee, golf, climbing, etc. These conditions present unique challenges for athletes, often requiring specialized treatment plans beyond traditional rehabilitation methods.
For people living with these conditions, we offer a holistic approach to rehabilitation that focuses on:
Pain Management
Chronic conditions often lead to persistent pain, which can hinder performance and recovery. Our rehabilitation programs include pain management strategies that help relieve discomfort while maintaining mobility.
Joint Stabilization
Many connective tissue disorders cause joint instability, which increases the risk of injury during physical activity. Our treatment plans emphasize joint stability through targeted exercises and strength training.
Customized training
Athletes with chronic conditions often need highly individualized training routines to avoid overexertion while improving strength and agility. Each rehabilitation plan is personalized to meet the needs of our clients, ensuring they progress safely and effectively.
