Treatment for Sports Injuries
Your physiotherapist will perform a detailed and comprehensive assessment, analysing the events leading up to the injury, and the onset of the pain, as well as evaluating your overall musculoskeletal health. This allows physiotherapists the opportunity to identify the structural cause of pain and devise the specific course of action required. Additionally, physiotherapists aim to identify any potential weaknesses or movement disorders that may have contributed to the cause or are obstructing your healing process.
After determining your diagnosis, your physiotherapist will go over the treatment plan and the steps to resume sports activities. Typically, there will be an initial period of rest followed by a gradual return to activity with the assistance of rehabilitative exercises. Physiotherapists also coordinate with coaches and other healthcare providers to ensure your recovery is well-guided, not rushed, and aligned with your specific requirements.
