Expert Sports Injury Treatment and Rehabilitation at Carter & George

The best treatment for a sports injury depends on the type and severity of the injury. Physiotherapy is often the first line of treatment and includes manual therapy, strengthening exercises, and advanced treatments like shockwave therapy or dry needling. For severe cases, diagnostic imaging or a specialist consultation may be recommended.

Preventing sports injuries involves proper warm-up routines, strength training, and flexibility exercises. At Carter & George, we provide personalised injury prevention programmes that include exercises to improve strength, balance, and posture—helping reduce the risk of future injuries.

The length of rehabilitation depends on the injury and its severity. Minor sprains may heal within a few weeks, while more complex injuries like ACL tears can take several months. Our team will provide a clear timeline during your consultation and ongoing updates as you progress through your rehabilitation.

Yes, physiotherapy is essential after most sports injuries as it helps restore strength, mobility, and function while reducing the risk of re-injury. Our personalised approach ensures you recover fully and return to your sport safely.

Depending on the injury, some exercises may still be safe. Our physiotherapists will guide you on what activities you can safely continue and which exercises to avoid until your injury heals.

During rehabilitation, you’ll work with our physiotherapists on exercises and treatments designed to relieve pain, restore movement, and build strength. As your injury heals, we’ll gradually increase the intensity of your programme to get you back to full fitness.

We treat a wide range of sports injuries, including hamstring strains, calf strains, ACL tears, ankle sprains, and shoulder injuries. Whether your injury is from football, running, golf, or another sport, we can help you recover and return to activity.
