Sports Physiotherapy vs General Physiotherapy

Both are physiotherapy — but the goal, the testing and the endpoint are completely different for an athlete.

Different endpoints

General physiotherapy aims to relieve pain and restore daily function. Sports physiotherapy aims to return you to competition at your prior level, which is a much higher bar.

Testing, not opinion

Sports rehab uses objective strength, hop and sprint testing to make decisions instead of relying on how the athlete feels on the day.

Load literacy

A sports physiotherapist plans around your fixture list, training blocks and season phase rather than treating in isolation.
