In case you missed it, we hosted our very first sports medicine symposium at our Sports Institute clinic in Seattle and it was a hit! 👏

We’re so grateful to be able to bring events like this to the Seattle Sports Medicine community. It’s a huge part of our mission to advance our field by providing valuable education and networking to students, athletic trainers, and physical therapists alike.

We’re excited to make this an annual event - see you at GameDay 2027! 👀

We were thrilled to participate in the University of Puget Sound Physical Therapy/Occupational Therapy Job Fair last month. It’s always inspiring to connect with students and provide resources and insight to the next generation of healthcare workers (and hopefully future IRG teammates!).

We love meeting these bright individuals who bring so much passion and vigor to the field. Thank you to our amazing team in the South Sound who made this day of connection possible!

An ACL tear doesn't just take you off the field. It reshapes your daily life, your identity, and your relationship with the sport you love — for up to a year or more. That kind of journey deserves more than a generic protocol.

Did you know we offer free injury prevention workshops? We tailor presentations and hands-on demonstrations to fit your business’s specific needs.

Are you a…

💈Hair stylist? Cutting, curling, and styling demand a lot of hand and wrist strength. Your team could benefit from ergonomic adjustments to help prevent lower extremity strain.

🍽Caterer? Long hours and heavy lifting can lead to aches and pains that slow your team down. Our therapists can demonstrate warm-ups and techniques to relieve tension and keep you moving.

🍕Restaurant owner? In a fast-paced environment where lifting kegs, cases, and heavy trays is the norm, the toll on the body adds up quickly. Learn about recommended footwear, bracing, and quick fixes for sore backs, shoulders, and wrists to help keep your team going strong.

No matter what your team does, chances are you’d benefit from speaking with a professional about injury prevention and smart habits that support a pain-free workday. Our therapists will work around your schedule and tailor each session to your needs.
