Physio & Sport
Injury Assessment and Diagnosis
You should see a physiotherapist if:
- you cannot continue normal sporting, work or daily activities; or
- your injury is recurrent; or
- you are concerned about recovery from your injury.
Your physiotherapist will:
- assess your injury or problem and provide a provisional diagnosis, with expected time frames for recovery;
- refer you to the appropriate person if your injury needs further investigation or management.
Injury Management and Rehabilitation
Your physiotherapist will:
- provide an individual management and exercise rehabilitation programme specific to you, your sport and activities;
Injury Prevention
Your physiotherapist can:
- perform a sport-specific Screening Assessment of muscle strength, flexibility, stability and movement patterns to identify potential causes of injury and to provide a preventative rehabilitation programme;
- identify previous injuries that have not been sufficiently rehabilitated and may recur;
- teach you how to avoid more injuries;
- show you how to stretch and warm up.
