Pre-Season Injury Prevention Screening for Baseball and Softball
A pre-season functional screen can identify strength and mobility issues that could lead to overuse symptoms during the season. Identifying the propensity for these issues before the season begins allows programs to be put in place to decrease the likelihood of these symptoms as the season progresses.
Join Johnson & Hayes Physical Therapists for a free pre-season screen. We're local to the community, and we want to see our local athletes excel at a sport they love. Thus, these screens are free and open to anyone in high school or college.

I have lived in Oneonta my whole life (34 years) and love this community dearly. My husband, Nick, and I have 2 fun kids, Kellen, and Gemma. We enjoy spending quality time together such as riding down to the river, playing golf, and piling up on the couch to watch a movie!
I have been in the PT world for about 10 years altogether, starting as front desk, then PTA, and now Clinic Director for our new Oneonta Clinic. I love what I do and getting to serve the people in this community. I pray that God will continue to use me to reach those who are hurting. Without him I could do nothing.
