We Help Motivated Athletes & Active Adults Get Rid Of Pain And Back To Doing What They Love 

Picture
The Charlotte Athlete was founded on the idea that the client comes first. Healthcare quality is at an all time low. Many people pay for healthcare not just with their money, but also with their time. Time is the most valuable resource we all have.

Our goal is to help our clients live a high performance, pain-free life. If you like to do CrossFit, we'll help you stay healthy while you train. If you love tennis, we'll get you back on the court and keep you there so you enjoy quality time with your friends/team. If you're a runner and have aspirations of doing your first half marathon, we'll help you accomplish that goal! 

We want our patients to know that we have their best interests at heart. We also want to be a resource for our community, coaches, athletes, and trainers around the world. We constantly put up new videos, social media tips and tricks, and blog posts to help our community stay healthy and perform at their highest level.

Who We Treat.

ATHLETES
From CrossFit to tennis to triathlons, although the sport of choice may vary, the frustration and agony of limited mobility, injury, and pain are the same. As athletes ourselves, we understand and are committed to getting you back to your peak performance as soon and as safely as possible. Using cutting-edge therapy, collaboration with local gyms/boxes, and individualized plans, we work towards stronger more resilient bodies.
ACTIVE ADULTS
Adults want to keep their bodies healthy by eating right, staying active, and avoiding daily aches and pains. Ya'll are the perfect match for us. We work with active adults who want to be fit and ready for their weekly run club night, next round of golf, or pickup game with their friends over the weekend. Or maybe you might just use exercise for stress relief and simply want to be as active as possible in the gym, Pilates studio, or home with your kids. We help them not only heal from new or chronic injuries and pain, but maintain a high-level lifestyle for years to come.
YOUTH ATHLETES
Kids today train hard. There's no doubt that the physical demands put on youth athletes today is rigorous. And as youth athletes go through their athletic development, they need a coach and medical practitioner that understands what they are going through. They need someone who understands how to reduce the risk of injury and start building resilience and strength so they can perform at their best and recover like a professional athletes.
BUSY PROFESSIONALS
You may not necessarily identify with being an athlete per say, but you are active! At least you were before limited mobility or injury slowed you down. Whether it’s taking the dogs for their evening walk, keeping up with kiddos, going to the gym, or getting in a round of golf on the weekends, you deserve to do them pain-free. You were made to move, and we are here to help you get back to that active lifestyle you love.
