Sports Physiotherapy Bromsgrove
Sport is a great way for you to be active and stay healthy. It increases strength, cardiovascular health, energy, and stamina. Regular physical activity has many advantages such as weight loss, improved cognitive performance, enhanced mood, prevention of chronic diseases, and improved sleep quality. Sport allows us to meet new people and have fun while socialising in a safe and enjoyable environment.
An injury can cause severe pain and discomfort. It can be difficult to move, or even participate in regular activities. Sports injuries are especially problematic as they can affect our ability and prevent us from performing at our best.
Do you enjoy playing sport, whether at a professional or amateur level, but feel restricted by injury or pain? Do you have a constant, unresolved concern? A Sports Physiotherapist is the best person to consult.
What is Sports Physiotherapy?
Sports physiotherapy, a specialty in physiotherapy, focuses on the prevention and treatment of injuries to the musculoskeletal system.
It is important to understand that sports injuries can be very different from other injuries. Sports people are usually highly active and require a lot of their bodies to perform.
How does Sports Physiotherapy work?
When undergoing treatment for a sports injury the aim is to get you back to your sport as quickly and safely as possible. Sports physiotherapists are skilled in diagnosing and treating musculoskeletal injury. They also provide advice on managing them. They will create individualised treatment plans focused on your goals and preferences that can include manual therapy, exercise prescription, and biomechanical assessment.How can a sports physiotherapist help me?
The passion of sports physiotherapists is to help athletes reach their potential. They are part of a multidisciplinary team which focuses on the best outcome for each individual athlete.
Each sports physiotherapist could have sport-specific knowledge, which can address severe, chronic, and overuse injuries in certain sports, such as soccer, football, cricket and hockey. It is for this reason that it is necessary to meet with a sports physiotherapist that knows the complicated nature of your specific sport.
Sports Physiotherapists possess comprehensive knowledge of the newest evidence-based practice, skilled assessment and diagnosis of sports injuries, and are knowledgeable in the use of effective ‘hands-on’ treatment techniques and exercise protocols to aid recovery as well as stop injury.
