Sports Physiotherapy

Sports physio is physiotherapy specifically tailored to the demands of a particular sport. Titled sports and exercise physios have undergone additional post graduate training to specialise in this field. Sports physios provide a variety of roles including screening for injuries as well as assessment and treatment of injuries. We will often use taping or braces to help you get back to your sporting pursuit quicker.

Some common sports injuries:

• Torn muscles and ligaments
• Strains and sprains
• Rotator cuff injuries
• Overuse injuries eg tennis elbow/ tendinopathy
• Shin pain
• Knee injuries
• Fractures
• Dislocations
• Achilles tendon injuries
