ACL Tear Broward

If you’ve heard a pop in your knee followed by pain, swelling, or instability, you might be dealing with an ACL tear, one of the most common knee injuries. This injury is especially prevalent among athletes and active individuals who engage in sports requiring sudden pivots, jumps, or changes in direction. At Theracave, we specialize in physical therapy for ACL tears, offering expert care to help you recover safely. Our therapists work with you to create a personalized treatment plan that focuses on rebuilding strength, improving stability, and helping you return to the activities you enjoy, without compromising knee function.

The ACL (anterior cruciate ligament) plays a crucial role in stabilizing the knee joint. When it tears, whether partially or completely, it can lead to instability and pain during movement. Whether you’re opting for non-surgical recovery or going through post-operative rehab, personalized physical therapy is critical to achieving a full recovery. At Theracave, we use evidence-based techniques to guide you through each stage of rehabilitation, focusing on improving strength, mobility, and stability. Our goal is to get you back on your feet quickly, with the right guidance to prevent future injuries and restore full function to your knee.

Q&A

An ACL tear is an injury to the anterior cruciate ligament in the knee, often caused by sudden twisting or impact. It can be a partial tear or a full rupture, resulting in pain, swelling, and joint instability.

Not always. Partial tears or tears in non-athletes may be managed with physical therapy alone. However, surgery is often recommended for complete tears, especially in active individuals who want to return to high-impact activities.

With surgery, full recovery can take 6–9 months or more. Without surgery, recovery timelines vary but usually take several months. Consistent physical therapy is key to regaining strength, balance, and joint stability.

Yes, many individuals return to sports with proper rehab. A structured physical therapy program helps ensure your knee is strong, stable, and fully functional before returning to high-level activity.
