Sports Physicals in Murfreesboro, TN

A pre-participation physical exam, commonly called a sports physical, is required for most middle school, high school, and college athletes in Tennessee before each season. At Outreach Wellness in Murfreesboro, TN, Casey Meeks, FNP-BC offers thorough, efficient sports physicals designed to get your student-athlete cleared and on the field without delay.

Our sports physicals are scheduled in short, focused appointments so families do not have to spend half a day in a waiting room. We complete the standard Tennessee Secondary School Athletic Association (TSSAA) forms or whatever paperwork your school requires, and forms are signed before you walk out the door.

During the exam, Casey reviews your athlete's personal and family medical history, takes vital signs including blood pressure and resting heart rate, checks vision, performs a cardiovascular screening to listen for any abnormalities, and runs through a musculoskeletal assessment to identify any flexibility limitations or prior injuries that might need attention. If anything raises a flag, we discuss it with you directly and explain what to do next.

Beyond simply clearing your athlete for sport, a thorough physical is an opportunity to catch issues early. Heart conditions, asthma, prior concussion concerns, and nutritional gaps that may affect performance often show up first in this kind of exam. Casey's functional health background means she looks at the whole picture, not just whether the box gets checked.

We welcome student athletes and their families from Murfreesboro, Smyrna, La Vergne, Eagleville, and the surrounding Rutherford County area. Walk-ins are not guaranteed, so please call ahead to book — especially during peak pre-season weeks in July and August.
