The starting point

Understanding what is really going on

A proper injury should not mean the end of your active life. It means you need the right plan, not rest and hope. Most people we see have already tried rest, and found the pain returns the moment they go back to what they love.

“Josh went above and beyond to make sure I got the correct diagnosis and treatment. What was originally thought to be a hip flexor injury turned out to be a stress fracture.”

Common drivers

What tends to be behind it

No two presentations are the same, which is why the assessment matters more than the label.

Muscle strains and tears

Hamstring, calf, quad and groin injuries need graded loading, not time off. The dose and timing determine whether it recurs.

Ligament injuries

Ankle sprains, ACL, MCL. Accurate grading at the start shapes the whole rehabilitation timeline.

Tendon and overuse

Achilles, patellar and shoulder tendon pain respond to specific progressive loading and poorly to rest alone.

Post surgical

Structured rehabilitation following reconstruction, repair or replacement, built around the surgical protocol and your goals.

FAQs

Sports Injury Rehabilitation: common questions

How soon after injury should I come in?
Early is generally better. An accurate assessment in the first week prevents a great deal of wasted time and unnecessary worry.
Do I need a referral or scan first?
No referral needed, and often no scan either. Clinical assessment identifies the vast majority of sports injuries accurately.
Can you help if the injury is months old?
Yes. Long standing injuries usually persist because the loading phase was never completed properly, which is entirely fixable.
Do you work with insurance?
Yes, we work with all the major providers including Bupa, AXA and Aviva.
