Physiotherapy For Sports Injuries

Physiotherapy for sports injuries: The term “sports injury” refers to the kinds of injuries that most commonly occur during sports or exercise, but they are not limited to athletes. Factory workers get tennis elbow, painters get shoulder injuries, and gardeners develop tendinitis, even though they may not participate in sports.

Causes of sports injuries

  • An accident – such as a fall or heavy blow
  • Not warming up properly before exercising
  • Using inappropriate equipment or poor technique
  • Pushing yourself too hard

Almost any part of the body can be injured, including the muscles, bones, joints and connective tissues (tendons and ligaments). The ankles and knees are particularly prone to injury.

Injuries can affect different parts of the musculoskeletal system. Soft tissue injuries involve damage to muscles, tendons, or ligaments, while bone injuries include fractures and stress fractures. Joint injuries, like dislocations or cartilage damage, can also be significant. Knowing the type of injury helps determine the best treatment approach.

Physiotherapy focuses on improving mobility and function through various treatments. Manual therapy includes techniques like massage and joint mobilisation to reduce pain and improve movement. Strength and flexibility exercises target specific muscles to enhance performance and prevent future injuries.
