What place has physiotherapy in the management of my condition? Sometimes these injuries heal reasonably well over time without too much intervention, particularly in the younger patient. But there is no doubt that early diagnosis and careful treatment and rehabilitation for most soft tissue injuries results in a faster and more sustainable recovery. Can you imagine any professional sports club deciding to do without their physiotherapists? It is just as necessary for the recreational sportsperson to obtain physiotherapy treatment when recovering from injury. Physios use a variety of ‘hands-on’ techniques as well as implementing sport specific exercise programmes (see 'What we do') to help you get back to your activity or sport as soon as possible. |
