Causes of Sports Injuries
Sports injuries occur during sports or exercise and are commonly caused by overuse, direct impact, or extreme application of force. The cause of sports injuries extends from contact during games to overloading in training. Regardless of their cause, sports injuries may affect sporting participation in terms of training and playing, as well as discomfort outside of sports through impact on daily life.

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.
Once your diagnosis has been determined, your physiotherapist will discuss the plan for treatment and the ways to return to sport. Usually, an immediate period of rest is followed by a gradual return to activity with the use of rehabilitative exercises. Physiotherapists also work with coaches and other doctors to ensure your recovery is guided, not rushed, and meets your requirements.
