Rehabilitation with a physiotherapist plays a key role in safely returning to activities or sports after an injury. The physiotherapist creates a tailored program to restore strength, flexibility, and functional movement, progressing gradually to match the demands of your specific sport or activity. Exercises focus on improving balance, coordination, and conditioning, while also addressing any biomechanical issues that may have contributed to the injury.
The goal is to return to full activity safely and confidently, reducing the risk of re-injury. Education on proper techniques and injury prevention strategies is also provided to ensure long-term recovery and optimal performance.
