Understanding the condition

About sports injuries

Sports injuries range from acute sprains and muscle strains to overuse problems such as tendinopathy, shin splints and stress reactions. Effective treatment addresses both the injured tissue and the factors that led to it, including training load, technique, strength and equipment. Our physiotherapists, chiropractor, massage therapists and Foot Clinic work together to support a safe return to play.

  • Reduced strength or performance

  • Pain that returns each time you increase training

Common causes
