Sports Injury Management

Sports Injury Management and Rehabilitation

The causes of sports injuries are varied and symptoms may come on suddenly or gradually. However, it is those that are persistent or recurrent or keep you away from your chosen activity that you may find the most frustrating. There’s nothing worse than feeling that your hard-earned fitness is ebbing away due to the enforced rest, caused by recent or recurrent injury.

Whether you are a weekend golfer, footballer, club runner, rugby player or you just visit your local health club once or twice a week, we understand your desire to get back to fitness as quickly as possible.

The collective experience of Connect’s specialist sports injury management team treat sports internationals, professionals, as well as enthusiastic amateurs, in sports as diverse as aerobics, cricket and running, meaning that whatever you do and at whatever level we have someone to help you at one of our sports injury clinics.

You may also be unsure of who you should consult for your particular sporting injury. Within each sports injury clinic, we have a range of clinicians including a Sports & Exercise Medicine Consultant with expertise in managing a range of sports injuries.

Our receptionists are trained to help guide you to an appropriate clinician relevant to your condition and often also to your sport. However a Physiotherapy assessment is often the best place to start and together you and your physio can agree a management plan related to your particular sports injury. This may involve the contribution of other members of the team but the overall objective will be to enable you to return to your chosen activity free from the sporting injury that brought you here in the first place!

Most sports injuries can be diagnosed and managed with only a few sessions of treatment at one of our sports injury clinics, sometimes however all that is required is a diagnosis and advice on how you can manage the problem yourself.
