A Physiotherapy Practice With a Love of Sport

At Specific Physiotherapy, our practitioners harbour a keen interest in managing or preventing sports injuries, and enhancing sports performance. A number of our physiotherapists maintain ongoing relationships with elite athletes, AFL players included. They also bring a wealth of experience from their time at AFL clubs in high-level sports settings. When you come to us for sports physiotherapy, here’s what you can expect:

1. Comprehensive Analysis 

To begin, we’ll conduct an initial assessment that will encompass both your current symptoms and your medical history. 

2. Treatment Roadmap 

From this, our team of physiotherapists will develop a custom treatment plan to address your sporting injury. 

3. Clinic-Based Manual Therapy 

Thanks to our generous appointment lengths, you’ll benefit from more dedicated time with your physio, who will use a range of techniques customised for you, such as remedial massage, joint mobilisation, dry needling, and beyond. 

4. Specific Exercise Guidance 

At our centre, generic exercise sheets and standard printouts are a thing of the past. We prefer a customised strategy, making sure your plan is uniquely yours. And, we’re equipped with on-site Clinical Pilates! 

5. Sustained Management and Injury Avoidance 

After your initial treatment, our team continues to stand by you for the long run. We take into account strategies for preventing injuries and lessening the likelihood of further injuries, in addition to improving your sports performance, so you can shine in your chosen arena.

Your Sports Physio Questions Answered

Specific Physiotherapy, located at 149 Plenty Road, Preston, extends its sports treatment services to those living in Macleod and the surrounding regions. 

You can easily schedule your appointment online without a GP referral, unless you’re coming in on an EPC Plan (Enhanced Primary Care Plan) for chronic conditions. 

Our physiotherapists, skilled healthcare providers, strive to diagnose during your initial visit. However, further examinations might be required for a conclusive diagnosis. Regardless, we’ll closely collaborate with you to establish a management plan tailored to your goals. 

While our treatment plans are customised to each individual’s needs, we proudly offer Clinical Pilates at our Preston physiotherapy clinic. It’s an ideal adjunct fitness activity for athletes, providing significant benefits for rehabilitation and injury prevention. 

Utilising sports physiotherapy, we take a preventative stance against injuries by identifying any weaknesses, imbalances, or mobility limitations unique to your body’s structure. Based on our findings, we develop tailored exercise and conditioning plans that not only mitigate these vulnerabilities but also improve your overall strength, flexibility, and endurance. We also offer advice on the proper execution of physical activities, enabling you to pursue your chosen sports with decreased risk and increased assurance. 

General physiotherapy encompasses various conditions affecting the musculoskeletal system, but sports physiotherapy concentrates on issues and injuries associated with physical activity and sports. Our sports physiotherapists have extensive experience in sporting injuries, performance enhancement, and the particular requirements of different sports, making it possible for them to tailor a treatment plan that caters to your unique athletic goals. 

Sports physiotherapy offers benefits to all individuals engaged in physical activities, irrespective of their competitive level. Whether you’re a casual participant, a dedicated fitness enthusiast, or simply someone aspiring to be more active, sports physiotherapy can assist in recuperating from injuries, averting potential issues, and maximising physical performance. The core principles of sports physiotherapy are relevant to every level of activity, facilitating secure and effective involvement in any sporting or exercise endeavour. 

Sports physiotherapy can play a crucial role in treating chronic conditions or lingering injuries. A sports physiotherapist can evaluate the severity of an injury and its effect on your present physical abilities, then craft a customised rehabilitation program aimed at reducing persistent discomfort, enhancing mobility, and rebuilding strength and functionality in the impacted region. 

The duration of recovery from a sports injury can differ based on the injury’s type and severity, your general physical health, and your response to the treatment. Our sports physiotherapists will offer a customised recovery schedule following your initial evaluation and will fine-tune this plan as your treatment advances. 

A range of techniques is available, from exercise therapy and remedial sports massage to manual therapy, joint mobilisation, and dry needling. We work in partnership with you to ascertain the most suitable treatment plan for achieving your aims.
