An active approach

Popular and recognized among athletes, this type of physiotherapy is for anyone practicing a sport that requires more specific care for their physical activity. The role of our physiotherapists is therefore based on the needs of the athletes, whether they are a high-level athlete or an amateur.

An injury related to the practice of a sport can result in a forced break that is not always appreciated. Our goal is to help you return to your activity or competition quickly, but safely. Sports-related injuries are numerous and varied, whether it be a sprain, a strain, a fracture, a muscle cramp, a dislocation or even a concussion. Our physios can assist you in the healing process to help you recover and return to your sport.

We also value injury prevention in physiotherapy. High-level athletes are often followed by health professionals throughout their training. By maximizing your physical capacities, your flexibility and by benefiting from an exercise program adapted to your activity, your physiotherapist takes into account your objectives and the improvement of your performance.

What happens during an appointment?

During your initial evaluation, your therapist will ask you questions about your sport and your injuries in order to understand your condition and your goals. Through testing and observation of certain movements related to your sport, our physiotherapists are able to pinpoint the source of your pain or injury and give you appropriate advice. You will then agree on an adapted treatment plan followed by an exercise program specific to your physical activity.
