Muscle Injuries

everyday life where the anatomical structures become stretched beyond their capable limits which cause the soft tissue to tear resulting in pain, inflammation and loss of functional movement.

Muscles injuries can also occur due to repetitive movements being performed on a daily basis for a period of time resulting in micro tears within the muscle fibres which also causes the individual pain and can result in a loss of function.

Muscle injuries can vary in severity but they can be disabling and in some cases result in time off work. Our physiotherapists work in conjunction with their clients to aid in the restoration of functional movement whilst limiting pain and the risk of re-injury.
