Children’s Hospital Colorado’s Sports Medicine Center and Incline Gymnastics formed a partnership to promote the health and wellness of the entire organization.
Children’s Hospital Colorado is Incline Gymnastics Preferred Healthcare Provider. At Children’s Hospital Colorado, our board-certified sports medicine experts only see young athletes. Because our team is specially trained in pediatrics, we understand how an injury may impact growth, or how growth might impact rehabilitation. We also offer supportive care in areas like sports nutrition and sports psychology. In partnership with other top specialists at Children’s Hospital Colorado, we are always developing new programs for sports-related conditions.
Through our partnership we also will have a full-time athletic trainer supporting Incline Gymnastics athletes. She will be onsite to cover trainings and meets throughout the year.
