ACL Tear Hollywood

Experiencing a pop in your knee followed by swelling, pain, or a feeling of instability? You might have suffered an ACL tear, a common yet serious injury, especially among athletes and those who live active lifestyles. The anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) plays a critical role in stabilizing the knee, and when it is torn—whether partially or fully—it can cause pain and limit mobility. At Theracave, we offer specialized physical therapy for ACL tears, focusing on restoring strength, stability, and function to help you recover safely and return to your regular activities.

Whether you’re managing an ACL injury non-surgically or recovering after surgery, effective rehabilitation is key to a successful recovery. At Theracave, we create personalized therapy programs designed to restore your knee’s strength, flexibility, and range of motion. Our approach helps reduce pain and promotes healing by using evidence-based techniques like manual therapy, targeted exercises, and balance training. By addressing the unique demands of your knee, we aim to improve stability, reduce the risk of future injuries, and ensure you regain the full functionality needed to perform the activities you enjoy.

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.

Without a doubt this is the best Physical Therapy experience I have ever had (and I have had several). I have worked with Ayoub Zianai (AZ) and Hesham Abdel-Salam and they are both consummate professionals. A very thorough evaluation was done to start and a treatment plan reviewed. So much more extensive than other PT facilities which just take the referring Dr's prescription and assign exercises. Each week we discuss what is happening and modifications are made if necessary. Both practitioners are easy to speak with and very caring. I highly recommend TheraCave!

I can’t recommend Theracave enough! I came in with herniated discs in my neck that were causing arm pain and making it difficult to work out at all. Hesham took a truly one-on-one approach, helping me understand where the pain was coming from and working on strengthening the areas of my back that needed support. He told me he’d get me back in the gym, and after about 18 sessions, I’m slowly getting back to running and lifting weights with so much more confidence. I also worked with Ayoub, who is lovely, attentive and patient. Both made me feel heard and supported throughout the process. The medical massages made a huge difference, with some of my pain going away and never returning, and the dry needling helped loosen things up. What stands out most is their gentle, science-backed and detail-oriented approach. It’s clear they understand the body and take the time to address what’s actually causing your symptoms. If you’re working toward a goal and want truly personalized care, I highly recommend them!
