f your idea of dressing for success is a pair of running shorts and a tank top, you’ll want to know about Austin Sports Therapy. The doctors at Austin Sports Therapy are former athletes who specialize in the diagnosis and treatment of muscle, joint and disc injuries. Drs. Arbuckle, Brown and Thomson work alongside orthopedists, physical therapists, massage thera-
pists and acupuncturists in an interdisciplinary approach to care. “We don’t believe in one-way communication between doctor and patient,” Thomson says. “Rather than just treating the acute injury, our team approach to wellness is designed to put the patient on a unique, healthy course for the long term. With the right information and practitioners who listen, the patient can ultimately make good decisions about their own treatment program.”
Austin Sports Therapy opened its doors in 2008 and is a boutique clinic, where patients can count on working with their doctor directly, not through an assistant. Whether you’re an elite athlete or you’re lapped by them on the trail, you deserve pain-free workouts that help keep you motivated.

munity in that Pyron provides a variety of medical treatments depending on the particular injury or illness. Pyron has created a team of highly trained specialists who work together to provide the best care possible. MIM’s clinic offers physician-lead services of diagnostic evaluation including X-ray for everyday illnesses and injuries, physical rehabilitation, acupuncture and massage therapy, chiropractic and deep tissue treatments, nutritional evaluation and recommendations, as well as personal training to improve your sports performance. They believe that “exercise is medicine,” and “if you don’t move it, you will lose it.” Therefore, they
love working with people who want to start exercising, want to improve their performance in sport, or are injured and want to return to activity as soon as safely possible. They customize the care offered to each individual depending on their goals and aspirations. MIM also works closely with athletic teams to ensure their health and safety throughout their season. We use a computerized concussion evaluation system to make sure each concussed athlete returns to sport safely, perform preseason sports physicals and provide athletic training services for sideline care.
