The Importance of Sports Physiotherapy
Athletes, sportspeople, and sports enthusiasts continually undergo rigorous training and practice to become better at their sport and beat their competition. However, people of all athletic abilities are prone to injuries and fitness-related conditions that impact the musculoskeletal system. Regardless of what level you play, treating these conditions on time is key to maintaining your health and performance.
Sports physiotherapy is a specialised branch of physiotherapy that focuses on evidence-based techniques to prevent, evaluate, treat, and rehabilitate injuries and conditions related to sports and exercise.
Sports Therapy vs Sports Physiotherapy
Sports physiotherapy and sports therapy are terms that are often used interchangeably, but are actually quite different. Sports physiotherapists focus on assessing, treating, and preventing sports-related injuries within the broad sphere of competition and training. Sports therapists specifically focus on preventing and rehabilitating athletic injuries.
Sports and fitness-related injuries are incredibly common and can often be avoided. Sports medicine, sports physiotherapy in particular, can help you minimise the impact of the injuries, ensure better recovery, and take proactive preventive steps.
Without the right support and treatment, sports and athletic injuries can sprout into chronic conditions that can have a lasting impact on your sporting performance and career. Get your injuries treated quickly and professionally by the sports physiotherapists at The Somatic Clinic. Book an appointment to start your journey towards better physical health.

Sports Physiotherapy Approaches at The Somatic Clinic
A sports physiotherapist’s ultimate goal is to ensure players of all levels get back to form. Our therapists infuse a holistic approach to sports physiotherapy, from assessing the injury to preventing future injuries.
In-depth Injury Assessment
The nature and extent of a sports injury can only be fully understood after an in-depth assessment. To determine the ideal treatment approach, our sports physios conduct Orthopaedic exams, movement analysis, and clinical tests. A treatment plan comes into effect only after we’ve analysed the findings and you have received your diagnosis
Sports Physiotherapy Interventions
We combine an array of treatment modalities to manage and treat sports-related injuries. Our therapists address the injury’s root cause by using a variety of interventions, from sports massage therapy to targeted osteopathy interventions like articulation, trigger points, HVT’s and muscle energy techniques.
Recovery and Rehab
Recovery and rehab involve more than just recovering from sports injuries. Whether you‘re a professional athlete or a recreational sports player, you need to regain your strength, and stamina, and achieve optimal well-being. Our physios address all types of athletic injuries, from common strains and pains to more acute dislocations, fractures, and tendonitis.
The benefits from our line of treatments for recovery and rehabilitation include reduced muscle tension, improved circulation, faster healing, minimised muscle pain, and better mobility of joints. Our targeted interventions for recovery and rehabilitation effectively treat the affected areas and promote overall healing.
Injury Prevention
Sports physiotherapy goes beyond identifying and treating sports-related issues—it also helps you prevent injuries going forward. Our team of skilled sports physiotherapists work with you to identify risks associated with your sport and modify your existing techniques or styles.
Using this data, our physios will develop personalised strategies to prevent injuries from occurring. If you’re injury-prone, we recommend you start working with a physio immediately. Book an appointment to consult our sports physios to avoid the frustration of recurring injuries.

What to Expect from Our Sports Physiotherapy Specialists
When you arrive at our wellness clinic, one of our sports physios will be ready to welcome you. Your first appointment helps us understand your concerns, and we’ll ask you questions about your medical history and the sports you play.
You may be required to remove certain clothing (we’ll always ask for your consent first) so that we can assess the injury. We’ll then conduct tests to diagnose the injury better and map out your treatment plan.
Using the findings from this comprehensive assessment, our sports physiologists will suggest appropriate treatments before briefing you on the next steps. You’ll be able to choose your next set of appointments based on your availability and budget.
Client satisfaction is the ultimate priority at The Somatic Clinic. Our goal is to always ensure clarity and transparency in our approaches by providing clear briefings, treatment explanations, and our expected outcomes.
