What our treatment comprises

• Injury assessment, treatment and rehabilitation program

Our trained physiotherapists have the experience and knowledge to assess, diagnose and treat your injury. We will tailor the treatment to your needs and allow you to return to your chosen sport without recurring setbacks.

• Movement assessment

This will be necessary to determine the cause of the problem. Our physiotherapists will look at posture, asymmetry, strength and flexibility. Pain is only a symptom; correcting the biomechanics or your movement pattern will treat the cause of the pain.

• Sport physiotherapy treatment modalities

We will use our clinical reasoning to determine what treatment is the most effective for your recovery. Techniques we often use for the treatment of sports injuries are: sports taping (kinesiotape), dry needling, exercise prescription, movement and posture assessment, education, various types of soft tissue work and joint rehab.

Why is it important to be proactive in sports injuries?

A small ache or pain can quickly turn into a bigger problem and an injury which will stop you from doing what you love. It is best to get advice and start with treatment sooner rather than later. This is particularly important if you have just started in the season of your sport or if you are training for an event. Early treatment usually results in a quicker recovery.
