Move Better. Train Smarter. Play Longer.

Tennis & pickleball care from someone who plays.

Dr. Carolyn Baek is a competitive tennis player and a Doctor of Physical Therapy, so return-to-play isn’t theoretical — it’s personal. Whether you’re hurt, coming back, or want to keep playing for decades, care bridges rehab and on-court performance.

Tennis and pickleball return-to-play and performance care

Why racquet-sport rehab is different

Tennis and pickleball load the body in fast, rotational, stop-and-start ways that generic rehab rarely prepares you for. Care here is built around the real demands of the sport — so you don’t just heal, you get back to playing well.

Injury evaluation & return-to-play rehabilitation

A thorough tennis or pickleball injury evaluation, a progressive return-to-play plan, and on-court and off-court rehab where appropriate — so your comeback is confident and durable.
