Physiotherapy and Sports Podiatry

 

Sport injuries, quite simply are injuries that are caused by any form of sport or exercise. They can happen to any of us, not just athletes, and when they strike they can stop us from enjoying our passion. At Clinic on the Level, our physiotherapists and podiatrists have extensive experience in dealing with athletes, and the likes of you and me. In general, sports injuries can be acute or chronic. Acute sports injuries occur as a result of a sudden impact or awkward movement. Examples include a cut to the skin or a sprained ankle. Chronic sports injuries develop over time, often due to continual use of the same joints or muscle groups. Chronic sports injuries can occur due to bad technique or occasionally structural abnormalities, such as an inherited bone or muscle problem. Chronic sports injuries should be investigated by a medical professional to determine the cause and to prevent the injury getting worse. Some common sports injuries include: sprains, strains, cuts and bruises, bone fractures and breaks, tendonitis (inflammation of a tendon), blisters, and our team of physiotherapists and podiatrists have extensive experience in sports injuries and can help you with a speedy recovery.
