Osteopathic sports medicine for athletes at every level
Sports Medicine in Cypress, TX
Injured, plateaued, or recovering more slowly than you should? Dr. Tina Hills, D.O., brings an osteopathic physician’s understanding of how the body moves and functions to sports medicine, and much of her osteopathic work is with elite athletes. Board-certified in emergency medicine and a title-winning powerlifter in college, she evaluates the whole athlete, from the injured tissue to the fascia, nervous system, and recovery habits around it. Whether you’re a professional athlete or simply want to feel and move better, she sees patients right here at MK Wellness a few days a week.
An osteopathic approach to sports medicine
A D.O. (Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine) is a fully licensed physician with extra training in the muscles, bones, joints, and fascia that every movement depends on, and in hands-on osteopathic manipulative treatment (OMT). That training starts with how the whole body moves and functions, not just the spot that hurts.
Much of Dr. Hills’ osteopathic work is with elite athletes. She looks at how an injury changes the way you move, where your body is compensating, and what’s slowing your recovery, then treats the restrictions she finds by hand.
Her emergency medicine training matters here, too. In PHMX’s words, emergency medicine “trains a physician to work out what is actually happening under time pressure, with incomplete information, across every system at once.”
Who she sees for sports medicine
- Sprains, strains, and overuse injuries
- Old injuries that never fully healed, or keep coming back
- Tightness or restricted movement that limits your training
- Joint, back, or neck problems that affect your performance
- Returning to your sport after an injury or surgery
- Slow recovery, lingering soreness, or a training plateau
- Elite and professional athletes, and recreational athletes
- Active adults who want to stay strong and mobile as they age
For an acute injury, such as severe pain or swelling, being unable to bear weight, or a possible broken bone, go to urgent care or the emergency room first. Dr. Hills sees patients by appointment.
How Dr. Hills approaches it
Every plan starts with an assessment. Depending on what she finds, it can include:
- A physician’s assessmentA full history of the injury, your training, and everything you take, with a hands-on look at how you move.
- Osteopathic treatmentOMT, deep fascia release, craniosacral work, and structural integration, in PHMX’s words “to support function, alignment, movement, and comfort.”
- Regenerative optionsStem cells and exosomes, including tissue-specific protocols for bone, muscle, nerves, and joints, after a consultation.
- Recovery IVsPHMX’s Fit IV, with B12, amino acids, and minerals for active clients and muscle recovery, when she decides it fits.
- Advanced labsNutrient, inflammation, and metabolic markers that can affect energy, recovery, and performance.
- Nutrition and recovery coachingCoaching with Troi on fueling, sleep, and the recovery habits that support your training.

Recovery and performance, not only injuries

For athletes who want to train hard and recover well, her longevity and biological optimization care looks at the whole picture: advanced biomarkers, nutrition, sleep, stress, and recovery. In PHMX’s words, the goal is to help people “maximize healthspan, performance, recovery, resilience, vitality, and quality of life.”

Bring your training schedule, any imaging or records, and notes from your coach, trainer, or physical therapist. The more she knows about what your sport asks of you, the better she can plan your return.

I was just injured. Should I come here first?
For an acute injury, such as severe pain or swelling, being unable to bear weight, or a possible broken bone, go to urgent care or the emergency room first. Dr. Hills sees patients by appointment, a few days a week, and can guide your recovery from there.
Do I need a referral or imaging first?
No referral is needed to request an appointment. Bring any imaging, records, and a list of everything you take. PHMX can also arrange optional imaging, like MRI and ultrasound, through Function Health.
I compete in a drug-tested sport. What should I know?
Tell Dr. Hills before starting any treatment. The World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) prohibits IV infusions of more than 100 mL in 12 hours outside of hospital care unless you have an approved exemption, and its Prohibited List covers many substances, so she can plan your care around your sport’s rules.

Can I pair this with MK’s recovery therapies?
Yes. Many athletes pair physician-led care with MK sessions like compression boots, the Dry Cryo Float, red light, and PEMF, often on the same day. Ask Dr. Hills what fits your plan.
