Sports Rehab

How Does Sports Rehab Work?

Sports Rehab at Sporting Edge Physiotherapy starts with a comprehensive evaluation. Our physiotherapists will assess your injury, physical capabilities, and the demands of your sport. This allows us to understand your specific needs and tailor a rehab program that effectively facilitates your recovery and enhances your performance.

Once we've developed your personalized rehab program, we begin treatment. This typically involves a combination of therapeutic exercises and manual therapy. The exercises are designed to promote healing, enhance strength and flexibility, and improve sports-specific skills. Manual therapy, such as massage or joint mobilization, can help alleviate pain, reduce inflammation, and improve mobility.

As part of your rehab program, we also provide education on injury prevention, proper form, and techniques to optimize your performance. We believe in empowering our patients to take an active role in their recovery and ongoing health. By understanding how to care for your body and prevent injuries, you can enjoy your sport with confidence and resilience.

Lastly, we monitor your progress throughout the rehab process. Regular assessments allow us to adjust your program as needed, ensuring that you're continually moving towards your recovery and performance goals. This ongoing support and guidance helps you stay motivated and focused on your journey back to sport.
