Sports Injuries
If you play sport, at some stage you will have an injury. Sports injuries can be classified into two main groups:
- Acute injuries including contact injuries, soft tissue strains, rolled ankles etc
- Overuse injuries such as tendon issues, stress fractures and kneecap tracking problems.
All of our physiotherapists are skilled in accurate diagnosis and appropriate prescription of therapeutic exercise for sports injuries. Assessment will include a full biomechanical analysis in order to identify muscle imbalances, stiff areas and movement faults. We use dynamometry to accurately assess muscle strength and have our own fully equipped rehabilitation gym. Prior to returning to sport we will conduct strength testing (such as max hop testing for knees), functional testing and even psychological evaluation to make sure you are ready to go and to reduce risk of re-injury.
Don’t wait for it to get better. Get back to your sport faster by seeing your Physio as soon as you are injured. Regenerate has Masters Qualified Sports Physiotherapists and Musculo-skeletal Physiotherapists with over 25 years experience.
We also have an excellent network of Sports Doctors, Orthopaedic Surgeons, Sports Podiatrists and Remedial Massage Therapists should you require referral.
