Cutting Edge Facility Helps Athletes Prepare for Upcoming Season

Providence, RI, complex is helping athletes get back in the game quicker than ever.

Providence, RI (PRWEB) September 8, 2006

Superior fitness and injury reduction are underutilized strategies for gaining a competitive edge in non-professional sports. One state-of-the-art facility in Rhode Island is changing that.

Foundry Sports Medicine & Fitness, conveniently located in Providence, RI, is a full service “body rebuilding” facility serving not only athletes, but any injured individual. It was created around the philosophy that when it comes to rebuilding your patient’s body, every day counts. Whether it’s getting a high school quarterback back on the field in time for the playoffs or treating painful joints and everyday wear and tear, Foundry Sports Medicine & Fitness believes minimizing time lost to injuries should be prioritized by everyone -- not just professional athletes.

This premier sports medicine facility is capable of treating patients with the quality of care and speed usually reserved for professional athletes. Every facet of care that an injured patient could imagine is all under one roof. At the core is a team of top orthopedic doctors, physical therapists and athletic trainers. In addition, there is in-house diagnostic imaging, including MRI, X-ray and bone densitometer. All of these factors will result in a first class patient experience that was only available to the world’s top professional athletes, until now.

Leading the team is Dr. Michael Wiggins, Orthopedic Surgeon and Sports Medicine Specialist. Dr. Wiggins is regarded as one of New England’s premier sports medicine experts and has appeared on several television and radio shows analyzing the injury issues of many high profile sports stars. “Our goal is to provide a patient experience that is seamless and result’s in a quick, complete recovery,” comments the Yale educated physician.

In addition to having a tremendous team, Foundry Sports Medicine & Fitness also provides many other outstanding programs designed to aid overall health and recovery such as golf fitness evaluations and biomechanical video analysis, KT 2000 testing for ACL stability, VO2 Max testing for cardiovascular fitness and sports injury clinics for high school athletes.

If your goal is to return to the field, or life, pain free and quickly, this is the place to be.
