Whether you’re a weekend warrior, amateur athlete, or elite sports professional, our team is here to support your goals and get you back to doing what you love—stronger and smarter.
Sports physiotherapy is a specialised area of physiotherapy that focuses on the prevention, diagnosis, treatment and rehabilitation of injuries related to sport and physical activity. These injuries can range from acute conditions like sprains, strains, and fractures to chronic issues such as tendonitis, stress fractures and joint instability.
Our physiotherapists don’t just treat the injury—they look at the whole body to identify underlying movement issues or muscle imbalances that may have contributed to the problem. At our Adelaide physio clinic, we tailor each treatment plan to suit your specific sport, activity level, and personal goals.
We regularly treat a wide range of sports injuries, including:
Our clinic offers a range of additional treatments that work alongside physiotherapy to support your recovery from sports injuries:
Dry needling is an effective treatment option for reducing muscle tightness and pain caused by sports injuries. This technique targets myofascial trigger points and can help improve mobility and accelerate healing.
Our experienced therapists provide dry needling in Adelaide as part of a broader treatment plan for many sports-related conditions.
Clinical Pilates is a great way to build core strength, improve flexibility, and support recovery from sports injuries. At Health on Grange, our clinical Pilates programs in Adelaide are individually designed, ensuring exercises are tailored to your injury and sport-specific needs.
We use hands-on techniques such as joint mobilisation, massage, and stretching to restore movement, relieve pain, and enhance recovery.
Taping techniques (like kinesiology or rigid sports taping) can provide support during activity or competition. We can also assist with fitting braces for injury recovery or prevention.
Sports physiotherapy goes beyond standard treatment—it’s about getting you back to optimal function and reducing your risk of re-injury. With sports physiotherapy, you’re not just recovering—you’re rebuilding resilience.
Our team uses evidence-based techniques to:
Our physiotherapists create personalised rehabilitation plans that align with your sport, injury type, fitness level, and timeline.
Whether you need a short-term return-to-play plan or a longer-term injury management strategy, our team will guide you every step of the way.
Our goal is to support your recovery and help you return to the activities you love as quickly and safely as possible. We don’t just focus on treating the injury itself—we also look at the underlying causes, ensuring that you build strength, stability, and movement patterns that reduce the chance of re-injury.
Our physiotherapists take a personalised approach, tailoring every treatment plan to your specific needs, whether you’re recovering from an acute sports injury, managing a chronic condition, or aiming to boost your overall performance. We combine hands-on treatment, exercise rehabilitation, and education to help you understand your body and take an active role in your recovery.
By incorporating services such as dry needling, clinical Pilates, and sport-specific conditioning, we provide you with a comprehensive rehabilitation program that supports long-term results. With our guidance, you’ll not only recover effectively but also return to your sport or activity with greater confidence and resilience.
