Sports Physiotherapy

Our specialist sports physiotherapists help athletes perform at their best while preventing and recovering from sports-related injuries. Sports injuries differ from everyday injuries because of the heightened demand placed on joints, muscles and ligaments — and that is exactly what we are built to treat.

About our Sports Physiotherapy programme

Whether you are a weekend warrior, an academy player, or an elite competitor — getting back to your sport safely (and staying there) requires more than rest. Our sports physiotherapy programme is built around three principles: comprehensive assessment of the injury, identifying the root cause beyond the pain site, and developing a personalised plan that prevents recurrence.

We work closely with Dr. Farhat Fadhloun, our Sports Medicine Physician Specialist, on the medical side, and our physiotherapy team owns the rehab from acute injury through return-to-play testing. Your programme will progress from pain control and tissue healing, to range-of-motion and strength, to sport-specific loading and movement patterns.

We treat common sport-related conditions — ACL and meniscal injuries, tendinopathies (Achilles, patellar, rotator cuff), hamstring strains, ankle sprains, throwing-arm injuries and overuse syndromes — and we coordinate with imaging, sports medicine and orthopaedic surgery when needed.

FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

1 How do I know which type of physiotherapy I need?
Our expert physiotherapists will conduct an initial assessment and recommend the most suitable treatment plan based on your condition, medical history, and specific needs.
2 How many sessions will I need?
It depends on the severity of your condition, your recovery goals and your progress between sessions. Your therapist will walk you through a clear plan after the initial assessment.
3 Is physiotherapy painful?
Physiotherapy is designed to relieve pain and improve mobility. Some treatments may cause mild discomfort — especially when working on injured or tight muscles — but your therapist will check in with you throughout the process.
4 Do I need a doctor's referral?
You don't need a referral to book directly with us. A referral can help with insurance reimbursement, but it isn't required to get started.
5 What should I wear?
Wear comfortable, loose-fitting clothing that allows free movement. If you have a lower-body injury, shorts or loose trousers are recommended.
