Sports Injury

By elevating the injured part it helps to reduce the bleeding into the area. The early and correct management of a sporting injury is of great importance to the long term outcome of the healing process. For example, a chartered physiotherapist is in an excellent position to prevent the onset of chronic swelling which can have a major effect on the later stages of treatment, leading to a poor rehabilitation outcome and increase the probability for a recurrence of the injury.

The scope of a sports injury could potentially cover many areas of damage, from broken bones and the damage of major blood vessels to a ligament sprain or bruising. In any case the early and effective management is crucial.
