Most athletes book a physiotherapy appointment after something has gone wrong.

You walked away from the collision feeling shaken but basically fine. Three days later your lower back is stiff, sitting at your desk is uncomfortable, and you are wondering whether the two are connected. They very likely are — and this pattern is common enough that it has a straightforward physiological explanation. In the moments […]
Knee pain is one of the most common reasons people come to see us, and one of the most common things they have been told about it is unhelpful: that it is just wear and tear, or just their age, or something to live with. In most cases, none of that is the full picture. […]
If you have picked up an injury playing sport, the hardest part is often not knowing what happens next. Here is the short version: your first appointment is mostly assessment.
