Sports Injuries

We treat a wide scope of sports injuries in our clinic, ranging from the predictable body strains of sedentary patients suddenly undertaking exercise, to the occasionally complex injuries of high level athletes as they prepare for, or recover from a specific event.

The intensity of treatment varies depending on whether the treatment is acute or chronic: in the first instance, the priority is to manage the inflammatory process, improve tissue congestion and toxin elimination, and prepare the body for rehabilitation treatment.

The next stage is to focus not only on returning the injured joints and tissues to functional health, but ensuring that reactive or pre-existing postural imbalances are addressed to prevent any injury re-occurrence.

As a result, effective injury rehabilitation can on occasion not just lead to full recovery, but actually support performance improvement.
