What is the best treatment for a sports injury?
The best treatment depends on the type and severity of the injury. Most sports injuries benefit from early physiotherapy assessment to accurately diagnose the injury, manage pain and swelling, and begin a structured rehabilitation programme. Our multi-disciplinary team of physiotherapists, osteopaths, myotherapists, and exercise physiologists can manage the full spectrum of sports injuries from acute to chronic.
How quickly should I see a physio after a sports injury?
As soon as possible — ideally within 24–48 hours of the injury. Early assessment allows us to accurately diagnose the injury, rule out fractures or serious damage, and begin treatment that speeds healing. Delaying treatment often leads to longer recovery times and a higher risk of re-injury.
Do you offer return-to-sport testing?
Yes — we offer comprehensive return-to-sport assessments that test strength, power, balance, and sport-specific movement patterns to determine whether you are ready to return to full training and competition. Returning to sport too early is the most common cause of re-injury, so we take this step seriously.
Do you treat sports injuries in children and adolescents?
Yes — we treat sports injuries in athletes of all ages, including children and adolescents. Growing athletes have unique injury patterns (including growth plate injuries and Osgood-Schlatter disease) that require specialist knowledge. Our practitioners are experienced in managing paediatric and adolescent sports injuries.
Is sports injury treatment covered by private health insurance?
Yes — physiotherapy, osteopathy, and myotherapy are all covered by most Australian private health insurance policies with extras cover. WorkCover and TAC claims are also accepted for work-related and motor vehicle accident injuries. We recommend checking your specific policy for rebate amounts.
