It is common for athletes to succumb to injuries from the sports they play. Everything from football to golf can cause severe damage to an athlete in some way. Thankfully, physiotherapy can help keep athletes in the best shape possible and heal their injuries. Here are just a few ways that physiotherapy does this:

Joint Mobilization
This treatment will help regain movement in restricted joints. This is done through a gentle combination of exercises, minimal energy techniques, joint manipulation, traction/ distraction techniques, and more.

Neural Tension
Some reasons that a person may be experiencing Neural tension include bulging disc, sciatica, neck pain, shoulder pain, carpal tunnel syndrome, tennis elbow, and pinched nerves. This issue is treated with the application of different stretches that a registered physiotherapist can help you with.

Physiotherapy Taping
Strapping and taping injury helps to reduce further injury. This can be done using/ in combination with kinesiology taping. This helps muscles from straining themselves extensively and providing additional support to avoid any injuries.
