Deep tissue laser therapy uses high powered infrared light to provide soothing pain relief, reduce inflammation and promote soft tissue healing. Dry Needling is not the same as acupuncture, although there are similarities between the two techniques. The main difference between Dry Needling and acupuncture is the theory behind why the techniques work.

At Sarasota Sports Medicine, we realize the inherent limitations of traditional physical therapy and rehabilitation that has the primary goal of only achieving post injury ADL's. Simply attaining Activities of Daily Living (ADL's) may not be sufficient for many individuals that participate in sports and strive to function at peak levels of activity.
Chiropractic is a healing art dedicated to finding and correcting the root cause of musculo-skeletal pain and dysfunction. Through proper physical, visual and movement examination, an experienced doctor of Chiropractic can diagnose and treat areas of joint mobility dysfunction, abnormalities in movement mechanics and neural imbalances.

I just recently started care here. I have a medically complex background and have had severe chronic neck pain as my primary complaint but suffer from a genetic syndrome that causes frequent subluxations and dislocationsto any and all body parts. I had a chiropractor previously..despite chiropractic being contraindicated for my syndrome as it's thought to cause further damage. I was not getting relief for 8 months at the prior office and actually I was getting hurt because the adjuster would hit resistance on one side and create more pain from the harder force used. My first visit with Dr Kaufman

Their laser therapy is like magic. I had ganglion cysts removed from my wrists and have still had pain in one of my wrists for about a year after the surgery. I was starting to lose hope after trying everything from physical therapy to cortisol shots and still having trouble, but the laser therapy has reduced my pain to zero. I can now do push ups and lift weights again like I never had any problems. They have also been very understanding and willing to work with my crazy schedule to get me in the office when I can.

THESE GUYS ARE MIRACLE WORKERS! Never in my life have I had an injury so acute that recovered this quickly. I am a professional tennis player, and I travelled to Bradenton for a tournament. In my first match, I jammed my ankle so badly that I couldn’t bear weight on that foot the next morning. I couldn’t even walk, let alone play my second match. I pulled out of the tournament, and found Sarasota Sports Medicine for treatment. Between Dr. O’Dea’s dry needling and acupuncture techniques, Dr. Kaufman’s ankle manipulations and the daily laser therapy that Angie used, I was walking again

Sarasota Sports Medicine may not have coined the phrase Welcome Home, yet that is the feeling you will have when you walk through their doors.
My husband Randy and I spend our winters in Sarasota. Seven years ago we discovered Ken and look forward to our visits. Upon returning this year, we were delighted with the additional team members, additional equipment and new location.
I hold my stress and tension in my neck. Ken suggested I give dry needling a go to loosen up the muscles. After the first treatment by Joshua, I felt so much relief. After the third treatment, Ken was successful in making

My husband was recommended by our friends to go for his tennis elbow in both arms from snapping at the gate at BMX. To start off this office is one of the most welcoming and warm staff. He saw Dr. Kaufman for a consult and discussed the best course of action. He has been getting the Deep Tissue Laser Therapy as well as the acupuncture. It has worked. He is feeling better and better every week and is very happy with the results. Sarasota Sports Medicine by far is the best in town.

I was diagnosed with plantar fasciitis on my left foot and given exercises by the orthopedist,. Four weeks later, without any improvement, I developed sciatica on the right side. In order to manage the pain, I took high doses of pain killers. This made me very fatigued and unable to function. I wasn’t able to do much except sleep.
A friend recommended Dr Kaufman. I was reluctant because I’ve never been to a chiropractor. Luckily I made an appointment. Three sessions later I was pain free!! Dr Kaufman used a combination of body manipulation techniques and laser treatments.
I’m again enjoying

I twisted my ankle a while back and it was feeling “ok” but very tight. Dr Kaufman did and adjustment and it feels much better and I have my full range of motion back. I also suffer from planter fasciitis and Angela used the laser to help begin healing for that. It’s a beautiful office with great staff! I can’t wait to go back and see them again!
