Helping Triathletes Stay in the Race In June, the Athletic Trainers and Physical Therapists united on the Latta Plantation to provide comprehensive medical care for all of the triathletes who competed in the sprint triathlons. Select Physical Therapy provided the first aid care and sports medicine expertise of the Athletic Trainers, and the skilled treatment techniques of the Physical Therapists. Equipped with two treatment tables, an unbelievable amount of first aid supplies, ice, ice cold water, and our own white tent. We want to thank all of the Triathletes and all of the triathlon organizers.
Building a home takes a family For a full day in May, the Athletic Trainers at Select Physical Therapy volunteered to frame and cap a house for Habitat for Humanity. It was a great team building experience that was fun and rewarding. We are happy to be able to give back to the Charlotte community that has supported us through out the years.
Stick with us! Stickwithus.org conducted it’s annual lacrosse tournament in South Charlotte for two weekends in June. The teams ranged from U-11 through U-18, and they provided exciting games in the heat of the summer. The Athletic Trainers of Select Physical Therapy were out in full force providing medical coverage to all of the teams. With the heat index up, we were busy keeping athletes cool and safe while they participated.
