Sports Physiotherapy for Touch Football

Perform better and achieve your goals

Intro

How can RHP help you?

Touch football is Australia’s most played social sport. Due to the high speed, change of direction, backwards running, sprinting and diving components, Touch Football does have its fair share of injuries.

Typical injuries seen in Touch Football athletes include;

  • Acute knee ligament injuries
  • Acute ankle ligament injuries
  • Patellofemoral pain
  • Lower back pain
  • Muscle strains (hamstring, calf & quad)

With many of these injuries being non-contact, the biomechanics and quality of your movement is vital for your return from injury. This also forms the basis for injury prevention.

Well designed injury prevention programmes reduce the risk of ligament injuries (eg ACL injuries) for athletes. These programmes attempt to improve an athletes strength and neuromuscular control to improve landing and cutting techniques.

In just a few visits Mal identified and fixed my back and shoulder pain. My posture is significantly improved and thanks to the exercises Mal gave me I’m confident of staying pain free. Thank you very much!
