Targeted Injury Treatment & Performance Care for Pickleball Players in Wichita, KS

Pickleball has exploded in popularity across Kansas, attracting players of all ages and skill levels. While it’s a fun and fast-paced sport, its quick pivots, lunges, and repetitive swings can lead to injuries; especially in the shoulders, knees, hips, and elbows. At Wichita Physical Therapy Group, we offer specialized rehab and recovery programs designed to get pickleball players back on the court safely and performing at their best.

Common Pickleball Injuries We Treat

Our therapists are experienced in addressing the most frequent injuries associated with pickleball, including:

  • Pickleball elbow (similar to tennis elbow)
  • Rotator cuff strains and shoulder impingements
  • Knee pain, meniscus injuries, and ligament sprains
  • Achilles tendonitis and plantar fasciitis
  • Lower back pain from twisting and bending motions
  • Muscle strains from sudden starts and stops

We begin with a comprehensive movement assessment to determine the root cause of the pain, then create a personalized recovery plan.

Rehab With a Performance Edge

Our goal isn’t just to heal your injury—it’s to help you play longer, stronger, and without fear of re-injury. We focus on:

  • Restoring full range of motion for swinging and lunging
  • Strengthening muscles for stability and injury prevention
  • Enhancing balance and agility for quick court movements
  • Improving joint resilience for repetitive impact play
  • Teaching proper movement mechanics to avoid future strain

We combine evidence-based rehab techniques such as manual therapy, targeted exercise, mobility work, and advanced recovery modalities to speed up healing.
