Sports Physiotherapy Adelaide
At Core Physio & Pilates, we take a holistic approach to sports physiotherapy by blending injury management, tailored conditioning, preventive care, and performance insights for our patients in Adelaide.
Understanding Sports Physiotherapy


Key Areas of Focus
Injury-Specific Treatment and Rehabilitation
Early intervention plays a critical role in recovery from acute injuries. Our approach combines hands-on treatment techniques, including soft tissue manipulation, joint mobilisation, and options like acupuncture or dry needling, with structured exercise based rehabilitation programs. These methods aim to improve tissue health and promote functional recovery tailored to the injured area.
Sport-Specific Conditioning
Beyond injury recovery, sports conditioning is vital for restoring strength, endurance, and mobility across the body. Our sports physiotherapists collaborate with athletes and their coaching teams to develop progressive conditioning programs, focusing on rebuilding overall physical capacity, not just the injured site, ensuring readiness for competitive demands.
Injury Prevention and Monitoring
Recurrent injuries often mean more time off sport. Our preventive strategies integrate sport-specific functional exercises, load management, and monitoring practices to maintain optimal performance and address fatigue or flexibility limitations. Taping, bracing, and attention to training techniques further minimise the risk of re-injury.
Performance Enhancement
Rehabilitation provides an opportunity to address inefficiencies affecting athletic performance. We perform screening assessments to identify areas that may benefit from focused training, allowing athletes to return with improved function and alignment as part of their rehabilitation and ongoing management.
