Does your pain stop you from playing the sport you love? From a professional athlete to a weekend runner, fitness enthusiast, or anyone who likes to stay busy in general, a sports injury can have a negative impact on anyone. Any type of minor muscle strain, recurrent joint pain, or a ligament injury builds up over time, keeping you weaker, less flexible, and less confident. The good news is that you don’t have to remain on the sidelines for long with proper treatment and rehabilitation. The focus at our clinic is to help you recover safely, get back to optimum performance and, most importantly, minimise the likelihood of a future injury happening. At our Sports Injury Physiotherapy in Calgary. we have therapists who are able to recognise the different demands that sports place on the human body. This is why each treatment plan is geared toward your individual injury, fitness, and performance. We don’t just treat the pain; we get you back to being stronger, more flexible, and performing your best.

Our Sports Therapy Services
Programs of comprehensive rehabilitation are provided, addressing all aspects of recovery, ranging from pain through to competitive performance.
Injury Assessment: Our therapists perform a thorough physical assessment to determine the nature of your injury and how you are moving, your flexibility, muscle strength and your functional abilities before making a personalised treatment plan.
Pain Management: Applying the scientific skills and know-how we have gained in therapy, we use proven methods in order to relieve the pain, soothe the inflammation and promote natural healing, thereby avoiding unnecessary dependency upon drugs.

Sports-Specific Rehabilitation: All sports have different requirements for the body. We create rehab exercises similar to the motions needed for your sport or activity.
