Sports Injury Care in Jacksonville
Nagging pain or a sidelining tweak doesn’t have to derail your season. With over 25 years of experience, Dr. Phil Scheets provides athlete-focused care that helps you move better and return to play with confidence. We look beyond symptoms to address the underlying cause—often an imbalanced spine that forces other joints to overwork—and correct it so your body can recover naturally.
How We Help Athletes Heal and Prevent Overuse
Our approach centers on spinal balancing, using precise adjustments to restore motion, reduce joint stress, and improve overall mechanics. Kinesio taping is often used to support muscles, limit swelling, and keep you moving more comfortably between visits.
To complete the process, we focus on tight muscles and weak links through targeted stretching and strengthening. Dr. Scheets demonstrates each exercise and provides simple take-home cues so progress continues outside the office.
Quick, Flexible Access to Care
Conditions We See Every Week
Athletes of all ages and levels come in with many of the same concerns. If any of these sound familiar, we’re ready to help:
- Neck pain or stiffness from impact or repetitive strain
- Shoulder discomfort and restricted movement
- Knee pain, runner’s knee, or tracking problems
- Overuse injuries in wrists, elbows, hips, or ankles
- Strains, tightness, or posture-related issues that limit performance
What to Expect at Your Visit
Your first appointment includes a focused exam, a review of any past imaging, and clear goal setting. Additional therapies may be recommended as needed. Intersegmental traction with heat gently mobilizes and relaxes the spine before adjustment. Electrical stimulation calms spasms and eases pain.
Flexion-distraction therapy uses controlled table-assisted movement to relieve pressure without forceful twisting. With free parking, online booking, and walk-in options when possible, fitting care into your training schedule is simple.
