Ryan is extremely knowledgeable and is an excellent communicater. We worked one on one to both rehab my knee injury and strengthen areas to prevent other injuries in the future.

I am very happy with my results from Sparked Rehab and Athletics. Dr Ryan came up with a highly effective and individualized program for me. My shoulders are feeling great!

Dr. Sparks did a phenomenal job and I would highly recommend him to anyone with lower back pain.
