Rehab therapy in San Diego with Sweat Society offers a cutting-edge, non-invasive approach centered around NerveOTX therapy (formerly ARPneuro, also known as ARPwave).
Quick Answer: Why Athletes Choose ARPneuro
Sports injuries like sprains, ligament tears, and muscle strains often sideline athletes for weeks or months. ARPneuro therapy accelerates recovery by retraining the nervous system, reducing inflammation, and restoring muscle function—getting athletes back to their sport faster and stronger.
“I see athletes all the time who thought they’d be out for months. With ARPneuro, we cut recovery time drastically while rebuilding strength the right way.” – Neely, Sweat Society
The Athlete’s Reality: Injuries That Derail Performance
Whether you’re a runner, soccer player, weightlifter, or weekend warrior, injuries are inevitable. Even a minor strain can keep you from training, competing, or enjoying your sport.
The most common sports injuries I see include:
Ankle sprains and instability
ACL or ligament tears
Rotator cuff and shoulder strains
Hamstring and quad pulls
Low back pain and herniated discs
Post-surgery weakness or stiffness
Left untreated—or treated only with traditional methods—these injuries often lead to compensation patterns, chronic pain, and higher risk of re-injury.
Why Traditional Sports Rehab Has Limits
Sports physical therapy and rest are valuable, but they don’t always deliver the full recovery athletes need:
Slow progress: Healing can take weeks or months before strength and performance return.
Symptom-focused: PT often targets pain relief without addressing neurological dysfunction.
Incomplete rehab: Athletes sometimes finish PT without restoring full range of motion or strength.
Insurance restrictions: Many programs end before the athlete is fully competition-ready.

How ARPneuro Therapy Speeds Recovery
ARPneuro (Accelerated Recovery Performance) therapy changes the game by working at the neurological level. Instead of just treating symptoms, it restores the brain-to-muscle connection so the body can heal efficiently and completely.

What Happens in a Sports Injury Session
Testing: I identify underactive muscles or misfiring nerves causing pain or weakness.
Neurological Reset: Electrical stimulation reactivates these muscles and improves coordination.
Functional Movement Training: Controlled exercises paired with stimulation retrain proper movement patterns.
Accelerated Strength Gains: ARPneuro delivers the equivalent of 10x strength training without heavy loads.
Scar Tissue Reduction: The therapy breaks down restrictions and restores mobility.

Sports Injuries ARPneuro Treats
Athletes come to me for ARPneuro when traditional recovery hasn’t fully worked—or when they want to get back in the game faster. It’s highly effective for:
Ankle and knee ligament tears
Muscle strains and pulls
Post-surgery recovery (ACL, shoulder, hip)
Chronic tendonitis or overuse injuries
Back pain from training or impact sports

Case Study: Alex’s Hamstring Recovery
Alex, a competitive soccer player, tore his hamstring and was told recovery would take months. He started ARPneuro sessions after initial PT.
Within just a few sessions:
Pain was cut in half
Range of motion returned
Strength gains came quickly without heavy loading
After six weeks, Alex was back on the field training with his team. Not only did he recover faster, but he also reported feeling more confident in his stride, thanks to the neurological retraining.
Why Athletes Trust ARPneuro
Faster timelines: Cuts recovery time dramatically compared to traditional rehab.
Complete recovery: Addresses both pain and muscle function for long-term strength.
Performance-focused: Builds stronger, more efficient movement patterns to prevent re-injury.
Personalized approach: Every session is tailored to the athlete’s sport, injury, and goals.
