Injury Prevention & Rehabilitation

Our Accredited Exercise Physiologists / Exercise Scientists can help reduce the risk of suffering a musculoskeletal injury, as well as manage and rehabilitate any injuries that have already occurred. We are trained to take a holistic approach to injury management; aiming to not only treat an injury but help identify the underlying causes leading up to the injury.

Muscle imbalances and altered weight bearing are some of the leading causes of musculoskeletal injury in sports, recreational activities and activities of daily living. Through postural and functional analysis, we can identify and correct any functional movement issues to reduce your injury risk. Correct muscle activation and functional movement patterns ensure that joints are moving correctly, muscles are working under correct loads and producing forces in the correct direction. Ensuring there is correct muscle balance between left and right, anterior and posterior as well as upper and lower body greatly reduces your injury risk.

Previous injuries and chronic muscle imbalances can lead to left and right sided imbalances, greatly increasing the chance of future injury if not addressed. When treatment is aimed toward rehabilitation of musculoskeletal injuries, we not only ensure you return to the activities you enjoy. We also prescribe exercise to ensure that correct muscle balance, movement patterns and weight bearing is completed during all activities to reduce your risk and recurrence of injury
