Our approach to sports injury management involves resolution of the pain and symptoms, but also identifying the cause of the injury and working with you to prevent reinjury.

Our management is based on the latest research and evidence based practice.

We have a rehabilitation gym space and are able to perform video analysis of your running technique or how you move your body in a sport specific way.

We look forward to helping you get back to the activity that you love to do for a healthy lifestyle.

1. What is sports physiotherapy?

Sports physiotherapy is a specialised branch of physiotherapy that focuses on preventing, diagnosing, and treating injuries related to physical activity and sport. It’s used by athletes of all levels, from weekend warriors to elite professionals.

2. Do I need to be an athlete to benefit from sports physiotherapy?

Not at all. Sports physiotherapy is ideal for anyone with an active lifestyle or a physically demanding job. If you’ve had an injury, want to prevent one, or simply move better, sports physio can help.

3. What are common injuries treated by a sports physiotherapist?

Common conditions include ankle sprains, ACL tears, hamstring strains, tennis elbow, plantar fasciitis, and shoulder impingement. Sports physios also help with rehabilitation after surgery and injury prevention strategies.

4. How long does sports physiotherapy take to work?

This depends on the type and severity of the injury. Some people experience relief within a few sessions, while others may need a longer-term plan for full recovery and return to sport.

5. Is a referral required to see a sports physiotherapist?

No, a referral is not necessary. You can book directly with a sports physio, although some private health insurers or Medicare schemes may require a referral for rebates.
