Sports Injury
Sports Injuries refer to physical injuries that occur during exercise, training, or competition. They can affect muscles, ligaments, tendons, joints, and bones, and range from acute injuries like sprains and fractures to chronic conditions such as tendinopathy or stress-related pain.
Sports injuries can impact performance
Whether you’re a professional athlete or someone who enjoys recreational activity, sports injuries can impact performance, recovery, and overall wellbeing.
Sports injuries may be caused by:
- Overuse or repetitive strain
- Poor technique or biomechanics
- Sudden impact or trauma
- Inadequate warm-up or conditioning
- Fatigue or deconditioning
- Previous injury or lack of rehabilitation
Without proper treatment, these injuries can lead to long-term pain, reduced mobility, and increased risk of re-injury.
At Physio Matters, our MSK physiotherapists and Sports Therapists provide expert assessment and rehabilitation to help you recover safely and return to activity with confidence.
At Physio Matters, our Sports Injury Rehabilitation Programme is designed to support recovery and optimise performance through:
- Comprehensive assessment and diagnosis
- Pain management techniques (e.g. manual therapy, taping, dry needling)
- Targeted exercise programmes to rebuild strength, flexibility, and endurance
- Functional and sport-specific training to prepare for return to activity
- Education and injury prevention strategies
- Deep tissue release and manual therapy to address muscle tension and imbalances
We use evidence-based techniques to promote neuroplasticity — the brain’s ability to rewire and adapt — helping clients relearn essential skills and regain independence.
If you or someone you care for has sustained a sports injury, we’re here to help. Contact us to book an assessment or speak to one of our team.
