Sports Injuries
You want to get back to your sport ASAP? That’s our goal too.
How can physiotherapy help sports injuries?
Post-operative or post-injury physiotherapy has three aims:
- To prevent further injury
- To return the athlete to health as quickly as possible
- To get the athlete back to his or her sport in the shortest possible time
Of course, physiotherapy is not the only element in returning a patient to full mobility following a sports injury, but it plays an integral part in a multi-disciplinary approach.
