DR. RICK ROSA’S

PHILOSOPHY

 

Using Six Pillars of Recovery, Dr. Rosa has established recovery plans for athletes that encompass all aspects of healing:

 
 
  • Awareness of State

  • Rest

  • Play

  • Nutrition

  • Physical

  • Psychological

 

This comprehensive approach enables a more complete healing process that will prevent further injuries as well as speed up recovery between workouts. Athletes respond better when a coach is able to map out a specific workout. Similarly, doctors are able to map out and monitor specific plans that the athlete can follow. In addition, the athlete will become more aware of his/her recovery state and when he/she has fully recovered. The athlete can put that much more into his/her workouts which will ultimately improve the performance.

Dr. Rosa has worked in many situations over the past 24 plus years and has worked with lots of existing conditions from hamstring sprains to autoimmune disease and has helped athletes perform at the highest levels.
