Our providers assess your overall health and identify any potential risks before you begin or continue athletic participation.
What Is a Sports Physical Exam?
A sports physical exam, also known as a pre-participation physical, helps determine whether it is safe for you to take part in physical activities. It focuses on identifying conditions that could increase your risk of injury or illness during exercise.
- Review of medical history
- Assessment of heart and lung health
- Evaluation of joints, strength, and flexibility
- Check of vital signs
- Discussion of any past injuries or concerns
Why Sports Physicals Are Important
A sports physical exam helps prevent injuries and ensures that you can safely participate in athletic activities. It also gives you the opportunity to discuss any concerns about training, performance, or previous injuries with a healthcare provider.
In addition, many schools and sports organizations require a completed physical exam before participation.
