RETURN TO SPORT

RETURN TO SPORTS

At The Injury Clinic, our practitioners understand just how important exercise and sport are to our clients, and planning for returning to sport begins in the first consultation. Regardless of the specific injury, our physiotherapists use their clinical expertise and knowledge of the most recent evidence to guide their decision making and rehabilitation plans.

 

In order to return to sport after an injury, our physiotherapists, often in consultation with our strength and conditioning coaches, will look to initially ease symptoms before rebuilding the injured tissue’s capacity to manage the demands of the client’s specific sport or exercise goals.

DECISION MAKING

Recovery from an injury prior to fully returning to sport can take within a wide range of timeframes, and to help make these decisions, our clinicians will take into account:

  • Tissue healing time frames and risk of further injury
  • The client’s goals and the intensity and type of their sport
  • Time of season
