Manual Therapy

Manual Therapy is defined as a clinical approach utilizing skilled, specific hands-on techniques, including but not limited to manipulation and joint mobilization. Manually trained physical therapists diagnose and treat soft tissues and joint structures for the purpose of modulating pain; increasing range of motion (ROM); reducing or eliminating soft tissue restrictions and to facilitate movement and improve function.


With all therapists either completing or having completed advanced manual certification, Evolution Sports is one of the most respected centers for manual therapy in the Baltimore area. The scheduling of patients to allow for appropriate time for manual treatment sets Evolution apart from other clinics throughout Maryland. Manual therapy is taken to new levels at Evolution Sports.

Rehab of Spinal Disorders

The spine is by far one of the most complex structures of the human body. All humans are born with 33 distinct vertebrae. By adulthood, the 9 lower segments fuse, leaving us with 24 articulating vertebrae. Within the adult spine there are then 50 facet joints, 23 inter-vertebral discs, 33 pairs of spinal nerves, and a multitude of joint capsules, ligaments, muscles and tendentious attachments. All of these contribute to the function, mobility, and stability of the spine. With all of these structures to consider, and the limitations of even the most modern diagnostic tests and imaging, it is often difficult to pin-point the culprit in spinal disorders.


Instead of postulating about guilty structures and treating based on unreliable bio-mechanical theory, the therapists at Evolution Sports rely on symptom provocation which is reliable and observable. Systematic testing allows us to determine the nature, and the cause of your pain. We can thereby determine the most effective treatments for your condition based on careful assessment and analytical reasoning.


Trust your spine to therapists with the highest levels of understanding, know-how and experience. Therapists who will dedicate appropriate time to diagnose and complete the full rehabilitation process in a 1 on 1 focused fashion.


Every Spine is different, and so every patient is treated differently. All with the common goal of relieving pain and restoring full function. Call Evolution today to experience the best Baltimore has to offer.

Foot / Ankle Rehab

There are 26 bones that comprise the foot and ankle complex. A thorough working knowledge and understanding of each joint and their interplay is essential to properly rehabilitate the lower limb. At Evolution Sports, therapists possess detailed continuing education and expertise in foot and ankle joint kinematics, mobilization and rehabilitation. This knowledge base allows therapists to treat everything from plantar fasciitis to ankle sprains. A large aspect of foot and ankle rehab comes in the form of proprioceptive retraining. These therapeutic exercises are designed to prevent recurrence of lower limb injury and expedite the heeling process.


Every patient receives an individualized program to meet their specific needs and goals.

Hand / Wrist Rehab

Special care and experience is necessitated to properly treat the complex hand and wrist regions. The therapists at Evolution Sports Physiotherapy possess specific clinical expertise to allow for such care. Joint mobilization, custom splint fabrication, as well as therapeutic exercises of the hand and wrist have all been studied and mastered by the therapists on staff.


Patients of Evolution Sports can be confident that the therapy they receive for pathologies of the hand and wrist are well researched in the current literature. It is this attribute that sets Evolution Sports apart in their care of the hand and wrist in the Baltimore area.

Vestibular Rehabilitation

The vestibular system, which controls balance and proprioception (knowing where you body is in space) can be a source of significant pathology across many patient populations. Whether one’s vestibular dysfunction is centrally mediated (coming from a lack of control from the brain) or peripherally involved (inner ear related) the therapists at Evolution Sports are trained to help.

One of the most common causes of dizziness is Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo (BPPV). In BPPV, patients experience severe dizziness and some times even loss of balance due to a problem of the inner ear.


The therapists at Evolution Sports have nearly 20 years experience treating such pathologies. In some instances vertigo symptoms can be resolved in just 1-2 office treatments.

Chronic Pain and Headaches

Chronic Pain is a multi-factor disorder. Symptoms may stem from chronic inflammatory conditions, pathophysiological changes in localized structures/tissues or an over sensitization of the central nervous system. Psycho-emotional factors and functional disabilities also play a role in prognosis and treatment. Because chronic pain is no longer “just an injury”, assessment of specific contributing factors can prove difficult. The therapists at Evolution Sports assess the individual as a whole and understand how differential diagnosis plays a role in identifying key components of an individual’s pain.


Headaches, like chronic pain, are often mysterious entities. There are many different sources of headaches including dysfunctions of all or one of the cervical spine, sinus, vestibular or arterial systems or possibly the TMJ. The therapists at Evolution Sports will thoroughly assess the individual for the potential sources of their headache and rule out offending structures or pathology. By properly evaluating all structures, a host of technical manual therapies can be utilized to decrease symptoms and restore full function.Every patient at Evolution Sports in Cockeysville, MD will receive an individualized exercise program to meet their specific needs and goals.

Ergonomic Evaluation

Ergonomics is the science of designing proper user interaction with equipment and workplaces to fit the user. Proper ergonomic design is necessary to prevent repetitive strain injuries, which can develop over time and can lead to long-term disability.


Often ergonomics are overlooked when planning a workspace. Allow the therapists at Evolution Sports to keep your best interests in mind when helping you plan your work environment. A work station with well planned ergonomics allows for proper postures while at work and can lead to increased productivity and less missed work time due to injury.

Evaluation and Fabrication of Custom Orthotics

The foot is arguably the most important structure in the human body. It is our only contact with the ground and is equal parts mobile and rigid. The foot can be a source of many problems as forces from the ground travel up the kinetic chain affecting our knees, hips, and low back. With few people possessing the perfect foot, frequently, creating the perfect orthotic can remedy abnormal biomechanics of the foot and reduce pain or dysfunction of the legs and low back.


The Therapists at Evolution Sports are trained to correctly assess all aspects of the anatomy of the lower limb and evaluate the appropriateness for a custom orthotic. Specificity is achieved by creating an exact replica of the foot using a slipper casting technique from which your custom orthotic is fabricated. Call Evolution Sports of Cockeysville today for your custom orthotic evaluation and fabrication.

Sport Specific Strength and Conditioning

Evolution Sports prides itself on the integration of strength and conditioning into the therapeutic rehabilitation process.
