How we treat:
when you injure yourself you need to understand the mechanics of the injury. Injuries are acute trauma or chronic overuse. Our assessment is thorough and leads to clear diagnosis. This is important to formulate the treatment and rehab path to return to activity/sport.
Sometimes the acute trauma is severe and may need referral to specialist surgeon. There is alot of skill and experience needed to determine the clinical path a patient should take. Poorly diagnosed and managed injuries cost precious time and money and can end a promising sporting career. We will highlight an array of injuries we manage and explain treatment pathways you may need to navigate.
