Ever wondered what a typical day looks like for an ATC in the clinic? ?? As an ATC (Certified Athletic Trainer), no two days are ever the same! Our morning usually starts with assessing athletes' injuries, whether they're recovering from a sprain, strain, or something more serious.

Throughout the day, I’m constantly educating athletes on injury prevention and working with them to ensure long-term recovery. It's rewarding to see athletes progress, knowing that my work helps them perform their best—whether on the field or in everyday life! ??
