💬 At our conference, someone asked: “How often do unneeded surgeries happen across the country because of quick decisions after a brief ortho exam?” Dr. Jaron Sullivan responded with the hard truth—it’s more common than people think when rehab is skipped and complexity gets overlooked.

Dr. Jason followed up by explaining one of the most underrated benefits of working with a sports chiropractor: time. At Active Sports Therapy, seeing a patient 2–3 times per week gives us a unique advantage—patterns emerge, inflammation settles, and the real picture becomes clear.

Surgery is sometimes necessary. But rushing into it without proper rehab and repeated assessment? That’s what your healthcare providers should help prevent.

If you want to pitch in college, arm care means full body care.

When basic shoulder plyos aren’t cutting it, we change the tension along the kinetic chain — like adding rolling patterns to challenge the cuff from new angles.

Perfect drill for the day after throwing. Building capacity = building resilience.

Whitney is one of the most dedicated patients we’ve worked with.

After significant complications year post-ACL repair, she had limited use of her leg vs her expectations — but neuromodulation has been a game-changer. It’s helped her recruit the right muscles, regain strength, and finally see that progress click.

Watching her rebuild function like this is exactly why we do what we do.

🎓 In this clip, Dr. Jaron Sullivan shares key insights on managing ACL injuries in pediatric athletes, specifically around how graft selection plays a critical role in long-term success.

We wish we could give you the full two hours of his expertise—but even in one minute, you’ll see why we’re so thankful for his participation in this year’s conference. 🙌 These are the conversations that move the profession forward.

Ever had dry needling or acupuncture for your shoulder?

Here’s Carter — a pitcher who threw yesterday and came in tight. With neuromuscular stim on the needles, we’re targeting pain relief, restoring range, and reducing muscle guarding fast.

Whether you believe in Eastern or Western models doesn’t matter to us — results do.

Check out our other clips of Carter in the rehab bay. Shoulder motion came back beautifully, with almost no stretching needed.

🚨 Bet you didn’t know this… When surgeons operate arthroscopically, it’s not like looking straight into the joint. It’s more like building a ship in a bottle—while peering through the lens of an old-timey submarine. 🛳️🔬 The camera is angled, not head-on, making the skill required absolutely incredible.

Just another reason to respect the unbelievable talent of skilled sports medicine surgeons—and a reminder: choose your provider wisely. 🧠

🙏 Thank you, Dr. Jaron Sullivan, for speaking at this year’s conference and sharing insights that help all of us deliver better care.

Here’s Carter right after dry needling and an upper back adjustment — and you can see the difference in shoulder range.

Laying down, the scapula shifts, so it limits range. He started around 80 degrees… got to over 100 after treatment.

Standing? He went from 90 degrees to 130. That’s exactly the kind of post-throw recovery we want to see — especially for athletes coming off a painful shoulder phase where extra guarding sticks around.

Carter responded great. Got up, got moving, and headed right to the rehab bay.

🩺 In this clip, Dr. Wilson shares how his background in osteopathic medicine gave him hands-on training in many of the same techniques we use daily at Active Sports Therapy—like spinal manipulations (adjustments), soft tissue therapy, rehab, and strengthening.

But what stands out most is his mindset: every intervention should prioritize the patient’s long-term health and well-being. Not just short-term relief—real solutions.

We’re incredibly thankful for the kind words from Dr. Wilson—and proud to work alongside professionals who truly understand that knowing your limits is just as important as knowing your strengths. 💡 That’s the thread running through every clip we’ve shared from this year’s conference: humility, collaboration, and putting patients first.

Here’s Carter talking about dry needling for his shoulder —
“The weirdest part is the twitch response.”

He says it feels way different than the regular stim he gets from his athletic trainer. Maybe it’s the needles. Maybe it’s the combo. Either way, it’s effective.

Have you had dry needling before? What did you think?

Active Sports Therapy can help patients with diabetic neuropathy did you know that!? We do it all the time with a comprehensive plan including focused shockwave therapy, 40 watt class iv laser, and neuromodulation with strength training therapy. At Active Sports Therapy's Sports Medicine Conference, Dr. Wilson shared a compelling case of a patient with severe diabetic neuropathy who received a spinal cord stimulator. One of the most surprising and exciting outcomes? The patient reported actually feeling the ground better—which gave them more confidence walking and significantly reduced their fall risk.

Dr. Wilson emphasized how today’s updated spinal cord stimulator technology is vastly improved compared to older versions, and this case is just one example of how it's changing lives. Grateful to have leaders like Dr. Wilson in our local network bringing next-level care to the greater Nashville area.

Here’s Dr. Joel working with JC, one of our college pitchers.

After a night of throwing, it’s super common to see tight lats and reduced shoulder range. That’s why we always start the day restoring motion before we load anything.

Good warm-up = better outcomes. Every time.

Nothing’s spookier than waking up and the room is spinning.
Vertigo, dizziness, and balance loss can hit hard — especially after a concussion.
But with the right rehab plan, your brain and body can get back in sync.

Whether it’s post-concussion syndrome or something like BPPV (benign paroxysmal positional vertigo), the key to recovery is finding your edge — the exact point where your symptoms begin — and rebuilding from there. That’s what our team at Active Sports Therapy trains to do.

Here’s a behind-the-scenes look at our clinical team training with student doctors and therapy assistants, sharpening skills and progressing balance rehab exercises for those dealing with dizziness or unsteadiness.

Because nothing is more frightening than feeling out of control in your own body — and nothing is more powerful than taking that control back.
