🚨 You just tore your ACL… now what? 🚨

An ACL tear can feel like everything stops—but this is where the comeback actually begins.

1️⃣ Get an accurate diagnosis
See a sports medicine physician and get clear answers.

2️⃣ Choose the RIGHT rehab provider
You need a PT who understands your sport and can safely guide you through a true 9–12+ month return-to-sport process—not just basic exercises.

3️⃣ Begin early rehab
Prehab matters. Reduce swelling, restore motion, and rebuild strength before surgery.

💙 ACL rehab isn’t about rushing back—it’s about coming back stronger.

ACL Comeback Story: Sahara McNeal 💪🏐

Huge congratulations to Sahara McNeal on officially being fully cleared by her surgeon in Pittsburgh for return to sport 🎉

When Sahara first came to us 7 months post-op from another PT clinic, she was facing some major challenges:
• Lacking full knee extension
• Minimal quad strength and muscle mass
• Unable to jog without a significant limp
• Unable to hop on her left leg at all

Rehab was far from easy. There were highs, lows, setbacks, and breakthroughs—but through it all, Sahara showed up. Her work ethic, consistency, and commitment never wavered. She trusted the process, put in the work day after day, and stayed focused on safe, progressive loading rather than rushing a timeline.

This is a great reminder that ACL rehab doesn’t always follow a perfect schedule. What matters most is returning to sport by earning it through objective testing, strength, control, and confidence—not just the calendar 📊✅

Sahara is now well on her way as she continues preparing for her goal of playing college volleyball, and we couldn’t be more proud of the athlete and person she is becoming.

Way to keep showing up, Sahara. The best is still ahead 💙🔥

At Warrior Sports PT, communication isn’t just part of what we do — it’s the foundation of every life-changing outcome. 💬💪
Whether it’s checking in during a warm-up, talking through goals, or listening to concerns, intentional communication builds trust, strengthens connections, and helps our patients feel truly supported on their healing journey.

We also prioritize open, honest communication within our team — because when we grow together, we deliver the best patient care. 🤝🔥

At Warrior Sports, we believe caring for others goes far beyond the gym.
That’s why we’re honored to sponsor a child through Compassion International.

Sponsoring a child means providing access to food, education, medical care, and spiritual guidance through a local church in their community. Compassion’s mission is rooted in the Gospel, sharing the love of Jesus while helping children break the cycle of poverty in a sustainable, Christ-centered way.

We are currently taking donations for our sponsored child, Robert, and Warrior Sports will match 100% of every dollar donated toward his support.

Thank you for helping us love, serve, and give with purpose 🤍

🎉 What an awesome morning at Warrior Sports PT! 🎉

Yesterday we had the privilege of hosting 15 amazing students from the Entrepreneurship Class at Arrows Christian Academy here in Altoona, PA. They spent two full hours with us learning about what physical therapy is, how to become a PT, the intra- and interpersonal skills it takes to truly help people, and the real challenges and real rewards of running a physical therapy business.

We’re so thankful they chose to spend part of their day with us, and we hope they walked away with something valuable…
(and let’s be honest — we also hope they enjoyed the donuts 😄🍩).

A huge shoutout to our incredible patients who happened to be in the clinic during the visit — thank you for being so kind, welcoming, and willing to share space with the next generation of young leaders.

At Warrior Sports Physical Therapy, we love being invested in the Blair County community and look forward to continuing to support, encourage, and pour into the future leaders right here at home. 💙
