Sports injuries
Whether you are an elite athlete or a weekend jogger, injury that stops you from doing what you love to do is an unwelcome guest. We are experienced in treating Sports Injuries and will guide you to a safe return to your activity.
To fully understand these injuries it is necessary to understand the extra stresses and strains placed on your body by the sport/position and level of participation at which you compete. Putting your injury into this context is fundamental in not only managing the current injury but also in giving advice to rehabilitate and help prevent future injury.
Osteopathic treatment can help manage a chronic injury, stop a niggle from becoming a serious problem and speed the recovery from an acute injury. Within our assessment we regularly uncover functional biomechanical problems such as reduced joint flexibility, muscle imbalance and weakness which may affect performance. These problems can also predispose certain injuries and by addressing them we can help you recover from your current injury and reduce the risk of future problems.
In the clinic we regularly treat many elite athletes enabling them to continue to train, compete and therefore achieve their excellent personal performances. From all sports disciplines including professional rugby players and footballers as well as elite swimmers, golfers, triathletes and mountaineers have benefitted from our Osteopathic treatment.
