Sports Injuries: Muscle, Ligament, Joint Treatment
Whatever your level of sport, injuries happen. We treat anyone who gets a sporting injury and help you recover, restore normal function, and prevent future problems.
Sports injuries usually happen from overuse, direct impact, or forces greater than your body can handle. Other parts of your body can also suffer as they compensate for your injury.
At Cameron-Mitchell Osteopaths, we will explain what caused your sports injury and provide you with a clear diagnosis, treatment plan, and rehabilitation programme.
Common Sports Injury Complaints:
- Stress fractures
- Ligament strains in ankle, knee, and hip
- Muscle strains and tears
- Achilles tendonitis and tears
- Hip impingement and labral tears
- Hip clicking syndrome
- Plantar fasciitis
- Rotator cuff injuries
- Spinal injuries
- Iliotibial band syndrome
What your injury feels like
Sports injuries often cause swelling, bruising, redness, and pain around the affected area. You might also experience weakness or numbness. The severity depends on the type and extent of your injury.
How We Treat Sports Injuries
We start by asking about how your injury happened and your sporting history before the injury occurred. We then assess your injury and provide treatment or management advice depending on what stage your injury is at.
Our osteopathic treatment includes hands-on techniques to reduce pain and restore movement. We use soft tissue massage, joint mobilisation, and specific exercises tailored to your sport.
Here at Cameron-Mitchell Osteopaths, we understand the demands of different sports and create treatment plans that match your goals and timeline for return to activity.
I first saw Duncan, two years ago, when I had a very painful shoulder and had to work at an event where I would be using my arms and shoulders all the time. Duncan treated me and managed to get me through the event which was nothing short of a miracle. Since then both my father and my brother-in-law have also become patients of Duncan and found his services to be exceptional. Duncan is both friendly and entirely professional and I would be happy to recommend his services to anyone.
I had two sessions with Duncan which were incredibly beneficial and helped to ease my lower back pain. I found Duncan to be professional and informative and you can tell he really cares about what he practices. I highly recommend his practice for anybody who’s experiencing pain!
I was suffering with a combination of shoulder, back and knee issues which Duncan got to grips with, alleviating the discomfort and leaving me feeling reinvigorated and refreshed. I’d definitely recommend giving him a go. I found the treatment more effective than some acupuncture and physiotherapy i’d had in the past.
