A type of physical therapy which uses various methods to focus on preventing and treating injuries and other conditions which are causing pain. The goal is to return the patient to optimal function, so that they can continue with their daily life activities, occupation or sport.
Injury Prevention and Rehabilitation
Sports Therapy is for everyone, not just for athletes.
Any injury or general aches and pains can be treated with these methods.
We can also rehabilitate post-op or post-fracture.
Please bring a vest top and shorts to wear during assessments.
During the appointment
Sports Therapy focuses on the patient's lifestyle, therefore a detailed discussion will be based on their daily activities, occupation, fitness levels, general health and hobbies.
Next, we will take a thorough account of your current injury.
Following this, an objective assessment will be performed. This includes a posture assessment and tests to assess your movement and function, leading to tests which will rule in/out certain conditions.
We will work hard to find and treat the underlying cause, not just the symptoms!
After the examinations, we will discuss the treatment you will receive and proceed to providing them.
Please Note: You are likely to be given exercises, stretches and advice to carry out at home which will further improve the recovery process.
