Sports Medicine and Exercise Programs
If you could have only one health professional travel with you throughout the year, who would it be? Dr Oughtred has modelled himself to become that person. He can manage your diet, exercise program, nutritional supplements and he can provide multiple physical modalities including joint mobilization and manipulation. Dr Oughtred's vision for the future includes more physicians that specialize in health and performance as opposed to disease care.
Prehabilitation: Pro-Active Therapeutic Exercise
"Prehab" applies the principles of rehabilitative medicine to the healthy athlete in order to prevent injury and enhance performance. Why wait until you are injured to improve your posture, flexiblity or enhance the way you squat, lunge, jump, run, push, pull or lift? Just as you would do in the rehab setting, Dr. O emphasizes the importance of clearing each of the following stages before moving the next stage in a healthy athlete:
Reduce Pain and Inflammation
Proper Joint Function and Stability
Efficient Movement and Posture
Fitness and Athletic Performance
Sport-Specific Fitness
