Sporting Injuries come in the form of acute trauma or repetitive overload injuries. Physio requirements to treat sporting injuries include
- well honed assessment skills to accurately diagnose the injury.
- movement analysis and observation skills to identify underlying biomechanical faults. This is especially relevant to overload injuries, though many acute episodes have an underlying biomechanical trigger.
- in depth knowledge of the injury so appropriate treatment interventions, realistic goal setting, and the ideal exercise prescription can all be established.
- skilled hands-on treatment tools.
- knowledge of the sports specific physical and biomechanical requirements. This becomes crucial when preparing the athlete for a return to sport so there is less chance of re-injury or poor performance.
- quick access to any medical imaging or medical assessment that may be needed.
- previous experience of the specific injury.
The team at RHP ticks all of the above boxes, and will ensure a timely recovery from your injury.
