Physiotherapy for Sports Injuries
Prevent,Treat,Optimise
Physio4Sports is a specialist sports medicine practice dedicated to the prevention, diagnosis, treatment and rehabilitation of sports injuries. Whatever your interest in sport is, personal or professional, an injury is frustrating for everyone. Therefore, Physio4Sports pride ourselves on coordinating every aspect of your treatment process, facilitating a prompt return to sport.
Sports injuries are commonly caused by overuse, direct impact, or the application of force that is greater than the body part can structurally withstand. An injury that occurs as a direct result of some sudden event, such as a sprained knee caused by twisting awkwardly, is known as an acute injury. In contrast, an injury that is caused by overusing the same muscle group or joints is known as a chronic injury.
There are hundreds of different types of sports injuries, but certain body parts tend to be more prone to damage than others. Some of the more common sports injuries include:
- Ankle Sprain
- Achilles Tendonitis
- Back Pain
- Concussion
- Cuts and Abrasions
- Dental damage
- Groin Strain
- Hamstring Strain
- Knee Joint Injury
- Nose Injury
- Runner’s Knee
- Shin Splints
- Shoulder Injury
- Stress Fracture
- Tennis/Golf Elbow
Poor fitness, technique and structural abnormalities also contribute to the development of sports injuries. Prevention being better than cure, Physio4Sports encourage regular screening for physiological weaknesses that may lead to injury, and help you work with physiotherapists, trainers and coaches to eliminate them.
Our Specialist sports physiotherapists aim to provide the highest levels of Sports Physiotherapy care. Our specialist sports physiotherapy treatments include:
- mobilisation & manipulation of joints
- soft tissue techniques
- specific exercise prescription for the prevention and rehabilitation of injury and chronic pain
- taping to protect joints and injured tissues
- assessment and treatment of postural, pelvic and spinal alignment
- biomechanical assessment of movements through video analysis
- techniques to assist in recovery from training and competition
- retraining to prevent recurring injuries
In discussion with the client, our physiotherapists will complete a thorough history related to the injury, perform an appropriate physical examination and then determine a specific, individual treatment plan, to achieve the required goals in the shortest time possible.
