Detailed Sports Injury Assessment

Detailed biomechanical and functional assessment to accurately diagnose your sports injury.

Introduction

A precise diagnosis is crucial for athletes. A misdiagnosis can lead to chronic issues and prolonged time away from your sport. Our sports injury assessment goes beyond the surface to understand the exact mechanism of your injury.

Sports Injury Assessment is one of our specialized treatments under our Sports Injury Rehabilitation services.

Common Causes

Acute trauma during competition
Overuse and repetitive strain
Sudden changes in training volume or intensity
Poor biomechanics or technique
Inadequate footwear or equipment

Symptoms to Watch For

Sharp, sudden pain during activity
Swelling, bruising, or joint effusion
Inability to bear weight or use the limb
A 'pop' or 'snap' felt at the time of injury
Lingering pain that worsens with training

How It Helps

By accurately identifying the injured structure and the contributing biomechanical faults, we can create a highly specific rehabilitation plan that targets the root cause, not just the symptom.

Our Treatment Methods

Comprehensive subjective history (mechanism of injury)

Clinical orthopedic testing

Functional movement screening (FMS)

Video gait and biomechanical analysis

Strength and power deficit testing
