Sports Physiotherapy Unley
At Core Physiotherapy and Pilates Studio, our sports physiotherapy integrates injury support, personalised conditioning programs, preventive measures, and performance optimisation.
What is Sports Physiotherapy?
Sports Physiotherapy centres around assessment, rehabilitation, and preventive care for injuries sustained in sports and recreational activities. Understanding the unique demands of each sport and aligning care with an athlete’s personal performance goals is at the heart of our approach. Our team collaborates closely with athletes to craft strategies that support safe and efficient transitions back into sport with a lower chance of re-injury.
Fundamental Aspects of Sports Physiotherapy
Our approach to sports physiotherapy includes four fundamental aspects that contribute to complete injury management:
Personalised Treatment and Rehabilitation for Injuries
Early intervention is vital for recovering from acute injuries. We utilise a combination of hands-on therapies such as soft tissue treatment, joint mobilisation, and techniques like acupuncture or dry needling, alongside structured exercise programs. This approach supports tissue healing and functional restoration specific to the affected area.
Sport-Specific Conditioning
Rehabilitation is just one step—sport-specific conditioning is essential for rebuilding strength, endurance, and mobility. Our physiotherapists collaborate with athletes and their teams to implement structured programs that enhance overall physical performance, ensuring they are prepared for the demands of their sport.
Prevention and Monitoring
Repeated injuries can disrupt athletic progress. Our preventive strategies focus on functional training suited to each sport, load balancing, and performance tracking to maintain peak condition while addressing flexibility and fatigue concerns. Taping, bracing, and refining training techniques further support injury prevention.
Strategies for Improved Performance
Rehabilitation offers a chance to correct movement inefficiencies that impact athletic performance. Through screening assessments, we identify key areas for targeted training, helping athletes regain function and alignment as part of their recovery and long-term care.
