Sports Physiotherapy

Do you know why sports abandoned traditional physiotherapy?

Because the session-by-session model for athletes misses the most important part of a successful rehabilitation…

If the traditional ‘clinic’ approach worked for athletes, professional sporting organisations would be using it…

But they don’t.

Pro Sports teams use an integrated model instead, where the physio works alongside the strenght & conditioning coach to adapt training around they injury.

Here is why:

• The best know that if training stops, the athlete is likely to completely de-condition in the process. Not only do they feel slower, weaker, and unfit, but they increase their risk of re-injury… and so the negative cycle continues where one injury starts a chain-reaction of injuries into the future that end with athletes walking away from sport.
• Athletes that rehabilitate in a professional sports facility get better outcomes because they’re surrounded by an environment that encourages progress and performance… they aren’t stuck in a depressing 3×3 metre physio room that focuses on what they can’t do.
• Athletes who work closely alongside strength and conditioning coaches are stronger, fitter and faster when they return to sport compared to those who only do physiotherapy. They’re less likely to get injured and more likely to bounce back from their injury with confidence.
