From Surgery to the Court: Jasmine’s ACL + Meniscus Recovery with Athlete Physical Therapy in Tigard, Oregon
At APEX PWR in Tigard, Oregon, we specialize in athlete physical therapy that’s built around sports-specific recovery. One of our standout stories comes from Jasmine Broberg, captain of the volleyball team at Clackamas Community College and a proud graduate of Southridge High School. Ten months ago, Jasmine faced a tough challenge: recovering from ACL and meniscus surgery while wanting to get back to the high level of athleticism demanded by competitive volleyball.
Building Confidence After Surgery
Jasmine admits she worried about whether physical therapy would be “intense enough” for her goals as a collegiate athlete. Her fear was that traditional PT might not push her body to the point where she could safely return to high-level volleyball. But with APEX PWR, she found exactly what she needed: a PT team that knows how to challenge athletes while protecting their long-term health & meeting their short term goals. 10 months later, Jasmine found Dr. Dustin Zink, DPT, sports physical therapist and ACL post-operative specialist, the perfect fit for her needs.
Her review says it all:
Sports-Specific PT for Volleyball, Basketball, and Soccer Athletes
Athletes from volleyball, basketball, and soccer face unique demands on their knees. Explosive movements, sudden pivots, and jumping all place massive stress on the ACL and meniscus. At APEX PWR, our physical therapists design rehab programs that go beyond basic mobility, they rebuild strength, power, and agility so athletes can confidently return to their sport.
- Volleyball players: Focus on landing mechanics, vertical jump strength, and lateral agility.
- Basketball athletes: Emphasis on acceleration, deceleration, and pivot control.
- Soccer athletes: Balance training, cutting drills, and hamstring strengthening to protect the knee during constant direction changes.
