Sports Injuries

Sport injuries can occur during any type of physical exercise but are generally the result of participants coming together in a collision or where an individual has a functional biomechanical issue. Sports injuries are also a result of incorrect warm up techniques.

Common injuries include; ankle sprains/tears, calf and hamstring tears, adductor tendinopathy, ACL & PCL injuries, shoulder pathology, patella dislocations and fractures, ‘anterior’ knee pain, medial and collateral knee ligaments, fractures & dislocations, concussion/’whiplash’ injuries, achillies issues

Individualised sport specific programs that are regularly and correctly undertaken will maximise the outcome/ desired goal and reduce the participants risk of injury. A treatment approach will be agreed upon in conjunction with the treating practitioner in the initial consultation and will  include three main objectives; treat the acute inflammatory phase, regain motor control strength & mobility and then maximise sport specific drills linked to your chosen sport/s.

If you are suffering from any type of sporting injury, be sure to make an appoint with one of Physiotherapists today and together we can work to get you back to your required fitness level.
