Closed But Not Gone!

   Wednesday, April 15, 2020

   Competitive Edge

As many of you know, both Competitive Edge Locations have been closed since March 16th due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Since the very begin, we wanted to do our part to limit the spread of the virus and closing the clinics was the most responsible choice. BUT that doesn’t mean that we are gone! Far from that, the Competitive Edge team is here and working harder than ever to align you with the resources you need during this time!

We know that just because we are closed, does not mean your pain has gone away. And that’s why we have a few different resources we would like to offer you to help you through this period of social distancing.

1.) Instagram and Facebook

If you haven’t done so already, you need to follow us on one of these social media platforms. We are posting even more frequently right now to give you tips and tricks of things you can do from home in order to help decrease your pain. We also just want to stay in touch with you, say hi, show you what our therapists are up to, and to help you out with anything you need. So click below and follow us on instagram, facebook , or both!

2.) Telehealth / Virtual Athletic Therapy

A little secret that you probably didn’t know is that our therapists have 2 secret weapons. The first is their ability to ask you precisely the right questions and to interpret your answers in a way that not only tells them what your injury is and what is going on in your body, but also what you need to do in order to be able to resolve it!

Their second secret weapon is their eyes! Our therapists see things that you would never even notice. Whether it be the way you are sitting, standing or moving, or the way you perform an exercise they ask you to do. They see it all and this gives them so much information about how to help you!

The brilliant thing is that they can still use both of these secret weapons to help you virtually! Once you schedule your appointment , you will receive a confirmation email with a link to access the video call. At your Virtual Appointment, you will discuss your injury and how you are feeling, perform some simple movements to allow the therapist to determine what need to be done to help you feel better AND… this is the best part… they will teach YOU how to resolve your own pain! This might be a hands on self release where you recreate what your therapist would normally do for you or some exercises that you can complete with your therapist and also later on your own!

We have had great feedback from our Virtual Athletic Therapy clients to date and are so happy that they are beginning to feel better without ever having to leave the safety of their home!

3.) Membership and Virtual Classes!

If you’re struggling with the motivation to keep up with boring exercises from home on your own ( … I’m only saying what I know you’re thinking!) then the membership site is for you.

Your membership will give you access to weekly LIVE Virtual Classes with a Competitive Edge Therapist, video recordings of previous classes, and other resources from all of the therapists at Competitive Edge to help you feel better from home!

Sign up for a free 30 day trial. No pressure, no commitment, no competition during the classes. Just a way to make doing your exercises and feeling better FUN!

Not sure which option is best for you? Apply to speak with one of our therapists and we would be happy to give you more guidance!

Stay safe everyone and remember, we are here for you either now or when you need us!
