Sports Physiotherapy in Brunswick, VIC

How does Sports Physiotherapy Differ from Regular Physiotherapy?

Sports injuries differ from your everyday aches and pains.

Athletes perform at a higher level and are constantly pushing their muscles, joints and bones to the limit. This pressure makes injury not only common, but quite frequent. A sports physiotherapist helps athletes recover from sporting injuries and provides the educational resources needed to prevent further complications.

Central Brunswick Physiotherapy has sport-specific knowledge and can address acute, chronic and overuse injuries. Our services are available for both men and women of all ages who are engaged in sports at any level of competition.

Sports Physiotherapy Treatments

Central Brunswick Physiotherapy boasts over 30 years of experience in the treatment of sports injuries including muscle strain, ligament sprains and tendon problems such as tennis elbow.

Whether your injuries are new or longstanding, we are trained to create treatment plans to help you get better, which could include:

Exercise therapy – We prescribe exercise to improve movement, flexibility and strength and reduce pain in both the short and long term. We also encourage you to learn and continue the program to get the most from your treatment.

Joint mobilisation & soft tissue techniques – Hands-on treatment for joints and muscles can reduce pain and restore movement. We use these techniques in conjunction with other treatment approaches, such as exercise therapy and electrotherapy, to help you get better quicker.
