Hart Orthopedics Proudly Sponsors LaxOnLI: Supporting Local Lacrosse and Athlete Wellness

At Hart Orthopedics, we’re committed to supporting our community both on and off the field. That’s why we’re proud to announce our sponsorship of LaxOnLI, one of Long Island’s premier lacrosse organizations. As parents and fans of the game ourselves, we know firsthand the passion, discipline, and teamwork that lacrosse instills in young athletes. By partnering with LaxOnLI, we’re not only cheering on the next generation of players, but also helping them stay healthy and strong.

Common Lacrosse Injuries

Lacrosse is a fast-paced, high-intensity sport that challenges the body in unique ways. While exciting to play, athletes are also at risk for certain injuries. Some of the most common include:

Ankle Sprains & Lower Leg Injuries – Quick pivots and sudden changes in direction often put stress on the ankles and lower extremities.

Knee Injuries (including ACL & Meniscus Tears) – Cutting, dodging, and high contact can increase the risk of knee injuries.

Shoulder Injuries – From repetitive overhead motions to collisions, shoulder dislocations and rotator cuff injuries are not uncommon.

Hand & Wrist Fractures – Sticks and falls can lead to broken bones or ligament damage in the hand and wrist.

Concussions & Head Injuries – Despite protective gear, high-speed impacts can still cause concussions that require careful management.

How Hart Orthopedics Can Help

Our team of fellowship-trained orthopedic surgeons and specialists provide comprehensive care tailored to the needs of athletes at all levels.

For lacrosse players, we offer:

Sports Medicine Evaluations – Early and accurate diagnosis to get athletes back on the field safely.

Non-Surgical Treatments – Bracing, physical therapy, and advanced injection therapies (including PRP and trigger point injections) to aid recovery and reduce downtime.

Surgical Expertise – When necessary, our surgeons specialize in minimally invasive procedures for ACL reconstruction, meniscus repair, shoulder stabilization, and more.

Concussion Management – Careful assessment and step-by-step return-to-play guidance.

Rehabilitation & Injury Prevention – Personalized rehab plans and education on strengthening exercises to help prevent re-injury.
