CJW Follow-Up - ELITETRACK

Last Thursday through Saturday I did one of my follow-up visits to CJW Sports Medicine in Richmond Virginia. They are one of the founding members of the GAIN Network. Last spring I did my “Following the Functional Path” seminar there. It has been really neat to see how the Physical Therapists have changed their approach since then they get it. There is a terrific uplifting atmosphere in this clinic. In fact it seems more like a gym than a clinic. They are always thinking big picture with a complete awareness of the continuum of care. They have twelve trainers assigned to schools. The Therapists and ATC’s work close with David Koon who is the Director of the Athletic Enhancement programs. This is a real team approach where the patient/athlete will have every chance to get better. Every time I visit this group I leave inspired and enthusiastic about the future.
