Sports physiotherapy may support both recovery from injury and ongoing training goals by helping individuals improve movement, manage discomfort, and return to physical activity safely. Whether someone is involved in recreational or competitive sport, physical demands can place stress on muscles, joints, and soft tissues. Sports physiotherapy offers care that is tailored to these demands and can be adapted to various levels of activity.
Following a sports-related injury, an assessment is typically completed to understand how movement has been affected. The physiotherapist may observe mobility, strength, stability, and functional ability related to the person’s sport or activity. Based on this, a care plan is developed that may include exercises, manual therapy, and education to support healing and reduce the risk of re-injury.
For individuals who are not currently injured but want to maintain or improve performance, sports physiotherapy may help identify movement patterns, imbalances, or habits that could affect training outcomes. In this context, therapy may focus on flexibility, strength, and control to support consistent, safe participation.
The approach is typically progressive and may be adapted as training intensity increases or goals shift. Education about warm-ups, recovery, and body awareness is often part of the process, especially when preparing to return to sport after time away.
At Granville Physiotherapy, we provide a calm and focused environment for those engaged in physical activity at any level. Our team works with individuals to understand their needs and help guide recovery or performance goals through thoughtful care.
