Sports Physio Edmonton

Sports Physiotherapy Edmonton

We know how you can’t avoid injury in sports, but there’s no reason why you have to endure intense pain. When athletes get hurt, time is simply not a luxury. At Advantage Sport Medicine, our collaborative team of sports medicine experts, physical therapists, and physiotherapists ensure that the impact of your injury to your game and quality of life is minimal and your recovery quick.

Get your physical and emotional fitness back

Injuries do not only take a toll on your physical health. It can be emotionally draining, too. Athletes react to injury through different coping mechanisms, and when they do, sometimes they end up making the pain worse. Being informed by professionals about the nature of your injuries and the possible treatment options can decrease doubt, anxiety, and stress that accompanies the injury. When it comes to pain, take the guesswork out of the picture. Without competent advice and guidance from professionals, the journey towards rehabilitation and recovery may be delayed or ineffective.

We recognize that an effective athletic injury recovery plan needs to address physical, psychological, and even nutrition issues. At Advantage Sport Medicine, our multi-disciplinary team of experts ensure that all areas are accounted for to restore functioning as soon as possible.

Are you prone to Injury?

We know that competitive athletes face injury and pain frequently in their lives. Our default approach to injury is to worry about it only when it happens. If you play sports competitively, this perspective could mean a short, injury-ridden career. There are a lot of strategies where you can be proactive rather than reactive when it comes to injury. By adjusting the style of play, doing exercises, changing your diet, altering sleep behaviors, and doing rehab exercises, we have helped athletes become less vulnerable to injury. We provide individualized rehabilitation plans to meet your unique needs and goals.

Top-level care for all athletic levels

Our highly competent team is equipped with groundbreaking evidence and latest best practices on sports medicine. This ensures that we serve you with the most state-of-the-art techniques when we tailor your very own recovery and rehabilitation plan geared at making your athletic dreams a reality.

Injuries we regularly treat

From a sprained ankle when executing that flawless fade away or a hamstring strain perfecting your free kick, our intention is to help you get back on your feet and into the game. We treat a vast number of common sports injuries, such as:

  • Knee injury
  • ACL tear
  • Ankle sprain
  • Hamstring strain
  • Shin pain
  • Tennis elbow

How it works

Stop the onset of injury before it takes you away from a lifestyle you love. Our expert team combines care and innovation when crafting your individual plan. It’s important to be smart when pain and possible loss of quality of life is involved. When feeling any pain during an exercise or game, you need to consult a professional.

Contact a competent Sports physio now if you are in the Edmonton area and have peace of mind. At Advantage Sport Medicine, highly skilled physiotherapists are ready to diagnose your condition, manage it, and recommend a sustainable plan to make your experience with pain a distant memory. Let’s do this!

Strengthening Up The Chain

While the initial treatment plan following an injury might include basic strengthening exercises, it is important to eventually address the areas that are “ further up the chain”.

In other words, once progressed past the initial phases of injury, looking beyond the injury and targeting muscles groups that may be influencing and contributing to the injured area is crucial to maximize healing and return to performance.

Have you experienced an injury? Our team of physiotherapists, athletic therapists, occupational therapists, and kinesiologists are experts in helping you identify all the things contributing to your injury. Call us today for an assessment.
