SPORTS PHYSICAL THERAPY

Experience sports rehab the way athlete’s deserve. Beyond helping you recover from injury, we’ll challenge you to rebuild strength, restore confidence, and unlock your highest level of performance.

your comeback starts here

You didn’t spend years in the gym, on the field, or chasing your goals just to end up on the sidelines.

When injury strikes, it affects more than your body. It disrupts your routine, challenges your confidence, and threatens the activities that make you who you are.

The fear of losing what you love can feel heavier than the injury itself.

That’s why you deserve more than a generic rehab program. You deserve a plan that protects everything you’ve worked for and guides you back to full strength.

At Souva PT & Performance, rehab doesn’t mean giving up your sport. It means learning how to move smarter, rebuilding confidence and resilience, and eliminating the fear of re-injury.

Because the goal isn’t just to get you out of pain.

The goal is to help you recover, rebuild, and return stronger than you were before the injury.

Physical Therapists at Souva PT and Performance

the comeback playbook

Your physical therapy sessions are 60 minutes of 1 on 1 care. No techs or aides, just undivided attention from a Doctor of Physical Therapy. Your PT will use a blend of hands on manual therapy and exercises methods to help build your perfect session.

Each session will build on the last, and we regress/progress your program as necessary to ensure you are on the path to success.

We believe the fastest path to results is a fully customized rehab plan because no two athletes are the same.

You’ll get access to the Souva PT & Performance app, where your personalized sports physical therapy program lives. You’ll have lifetime access to the plan we build specifically for you.

Every detail is laid out clearly. No guesswork, no confusion.

What you do outside of sessions is what makes the biggest difference, and we make sure you’re set up to win.

When you feel heard, you’re more likely to succeed. That’s why communication is a core part of our sports physical therapy process.

You’ll have direct access to your physical therapist through the Souva PT & Performance mobile app.

Questions about your program or progress? Send a message and your PT will respond within 24 hours, so you can stay on track without waiting for your next session.

This is the main reason you should choose a clinic that specializes in sports physical therapy. We love seeing you get back to excelling at the things you love to do most and will do whatever it takes to help you get there.

frequently asked questions

Our priority is to deliver premium 1 on 1 care that exceeds the expectations set by traditional physical therapy. 

Because of that, we are only in network with Blue Cross Blue Shield Michigan PPO, Medicare, and Medicare plus Blue 

With deductibles, copays and coinsurances on the rise, working with us out of network is often times comparable to working with an in-network practice. Contact us and we will discuss the costs of therapy with us to plan our best route forward.

YES! We are able to accept HSA/FSA cards as payment.

Sports physical therapy is all about helping athletes and active people recover from injuries and get back to performing at their best.

Our approach is designed specifically for athletes, combining sport-specific rehab with injury prevention strategies. Our clinic is located inside of a gym, so heavy duty strength equipment, access to turf for agility and conditioning, and state of the art testing equipment is always available.

 

60 minutes of 1 on 1 treatment with a Doctor of Physical Therapy. No aides, techs, or fluff time. We value and respect the time you dedicate to spend with us.

Your first visit is a full-body, 1 on 1 assessment. No guessing, just measurable results. We evaluate strength, mobility, movement patterns, and function from head to toe to pinpoint the root of your pain or performance limits. From this objective testing, we build a clear, data-driven plan to get you moving and training at your best, pain-free.

Every patient receives lifetime access to their custom home program inside the Souva PT mobile app.

Each program has video exercise demonstrations and custom exercise parameters to perfectly fit your needs. 

Have a question when you're doing your program? You can message your physical therapist right inside the app.

In most cases, you do not need a physician’s referral to start physical therapy.

You can schedule directly with us and begin your evaluation right away. 

Most Blue Cross Blue Shield and Medicare insurance plans do require a referral, so you will need a script prior to your first session for us to bill your insurance.

We’ll guide you through the process to make it simple.

The number of visits depends on the type of injury and complexity of your case.

At your evaluation your PT will recommend a plan of care to achieve optimal results. Every individual case is different and not every patient requires the same number of visits.

Most non-surgical sports injuries can be resolved in 10–15 sessions. Post-operative rehab, which can take 6–12 months, typically requires a longer plan. We’ll work with you to create a personalized program that fits your goals and your lifestyle.

Our clinic is located inside Umbra Strength, a state of the art gym in Shelby Township, MI.

Our address is 51220 Van Dyke Avenue, Shelby Township MI 48316
